Alright, after reading through another thread about "music you hate", I found that this site is not immune to metal purists, those who claim that the only real metal is Metallica and other "founding" bands. What I want to know is what makes Metallica so damn amazing to everyone?
I'm legitimately not trying to troll. Post videos, songs, anything that can convince me that they are not just as "mainstream" as all of the bands you guys vilify. Convince me that their songs don't all sound the same. Explain to me specifically why they enthrall you. And more importantly, explain to me what makes them better than everything found in the contemporary metal world.
I feel like the only person who just doesn't care for the band. I don't hate them, but I am alone when I say things like "they're not that great". So, if I truly am mistaken, please correct my tastes. I mean they have released some nine albums and each of them gets conflicting reviews from their monstrous fan base. Is it just their staying value that's made them popular?
