Metallica pre black album for me. Later Pantera was awesome too. I remember when One came out on video and came into mainstream. I was around 12, and it was such a great video unlike anything I had ever experienced. To this day I still think it’s one of the best art pieces ever created. Metallica and Pantera playing in Russia in 1992 (or so?) is one of the coolest live shows to watch.

I loved this line up.  Before they started sounding more commercial and polished.

Each T their best are phenomenal. Ride the Lightning, MOP, and Justice is as good a run of albums as any band has ever had. Rust In Peace is musically superb. Take No Prisoners and Lucretia are two of my all time favourite songs. Pantera’s performance of Domination in Russia was unbeatable. How do you choose?

As they exist today, for live performances, Metallica hands down. James can still sing and they put on a great show. Mustaine was never the best singer but now he’s barely audible. And they only played about 75 minutes when I saw them. Good on Dave for still performing after throat cancer - all things considered, he’s doing great Pantera still puts on a decent show and I thoroughly enjoyed them. But damn, no Vinnie and Dime - they’re irreplaceable. 

Latest albums - 72 Seasons is pretty good, but The Sick, The Dying and The Dead kicks ass.  

I’ve got to say Metallica overall. Hearing them in the 80s was life altering. I can’t put into words how blown away 13 year old me was when I heard Ride the Lightning. And I still clearly remember hearing Master of Puppets for the first time - in my Sony Walkman while my mom drove home to the farm. I know, a kid is easily impressed. But it was like a religious experience.

Sounds like my experience with Black Sabbath paranoid, before walkman, I actually listened to it at the school library got the vynl and played it on pops record player(he was not impressed). Ozzy is, ,, fucking awsome. Before that, Zeppelin. First time I saw suicidal was at the casa de la raza in 83 or 84, with my friends rkl jason bomer and chris.

Master of Reality is so crushingly heavy. Into the Void is almost hypnotic. Love it.
