METALLICA @ TIMES UNION CENTER, 11/12/09
11/13/2009

"We're here to make you feel better!" That's right, folks, it was a big self-help meeting at the Times Union Center Thursday night, with James Hetfield leading the house in chants about war, lightning, insanity, destruction and such like. Actually, it was a Metallica concert, but Hetfield was in a surprisingly jovial, motivational mood, especially for a guy singing songs with titles like "Broken, Beat and Scarred," "Nothing Else Matters" and "Sad But True." Hetfield has reason to be a happy, though. He leads a simply ferocious band, and he and his crew were simply blazing Thursday night - just like the pyro that erupted all around them.

Metallica and Mould: '80s guitar gods play across the street from each other in Minneapolis
10/14/2009

Thrash music is about as subtle as a punch in the mouth - or a dozen punches in two seconds. During the 1980s, however, a pair of now-legendary bands, Husker Du and Metallica, transformed thrash into a thing of beauty without sacrificing any of its blunt force or blitzkrieg speed. The not-so secret ingredient in the success of both bands were guitarists capable of shredding heavy metal melodies into chromatic confetti-shrapnel with quicksilver aplomb.

Two decades removed from its last truly cutting-edge work, 1988's classic ...And Justice for All, Metallica finds itself strangely resting on top of the world while still fighting to stay relevant. Beginning with 1991's Metallica (known as the "Black Album"), the band began to veer wildly from the thrilling thrash-metal style it once played with unparalleled skill. Last year, it returned with the Rick Rubin-produced Death Magnetic, an attempt to re-embrace its trademark, epic song structures. Fans and critics alike hailed the band's return to form, and this fall sees Metallica on a long-awaited arena headlining tour.
