I think it is really interesting to see the shift in MetallicA's image since the whole ] VsMetallica controversy erupted. MetallicA was always known as a band of the people -- a band that grew in popularity by touring a lot and connecting directly with the fans, with very little record company or MTV corporate support of any kind.

WojPob's theory is: something went wrong after they collectively cut their hair (which started to look a bit MulleT-like). Then they released /Load, which in the view of a lot of fans was a "weird" album. Then, less than a year later came /Reload, which was released much too quickly and obviously needed some more studio work. They still have the talent - maybe they're just too old now???

I second this. He filled in for Hetfield on two separate tours, and they even played with him at the 30th anniversary concert, so even the band themselves probably considers him a former touring member. Inbloom1997 (talk) 12:58, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
