Guest Steviekick Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Metallica has a new logo. It's designed by Pusshead who has done stuff in the past for them and the Misfits.
Guest Sandman9000 Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Doesn't look too radically different from any of their old shit, so if you hadn't mentioned that it was new I wouldn't have thought that it was. Dunno if that's a good thing or not. And I want my cheeseburger medium-well.
Guest MaxPower27 Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Fleh. It's got kind of an electricity type deal. I'm still not buying the CD. I've learned my lesson now. Cheeseburger: Medium-Rare.
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 I said this in a thread at Wrestling-Titans (now featuring THE DAMES): The logo reminds me of a logo an indy hardcore/punk band might use. I guess in an effort to get back to how they were pre-Black Album, they're also going for a pseudo-indy logo. Makes sense to Lars, I guess. EDIT: Make it a double-cheeseburger, medium-well, with ketchup and mustard and lots of pickles. Preferably a Sesame Seed bun, too.
Guest redbaron51 Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 looks like some shitty emo band would use... it still sucks
Guest Steviekick Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 I'm glad everyone likes the cheeseburger reference so much...that makes me smile.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 It looks like something from a band who's trying too hard to say... "see look we're serious...we're really going back to our roots...please love us old fans" ...I'm not buying it Fuck Lars
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Shouldn't they be lighting the Napster logo on fire or something...
Guest That 1996 Guy Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Wow...that took Pusshead what? 2 seconds to make? Wankers.
Guest DARRYLXWF Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 I love Metallica to the bottom of my heart... But I coulda fixed that up on Paintshop Pro within a day
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Hmm.. What does this say to me? Well, it says Metallica, that's simple enough to see, but the white stuff surrounding it? Is it supposed to be pointy edges? Fire? Some kind of radiation or something? Cum? Other than that, it's pretty pedestrian, but nothing overly offensive. Also, I just now noticed that you can switch around the letters to spell "Camel Tail" That's what they should've named the album. I think I'll vote "no."
Guest Mole Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 I'm not a big fan of Metallica, but that logo is not that good. No matter what their logo looks like, they will always sell million copies.
Guest caboose Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 The general stupidity of Metallica nowadays (LARS), can be summed up by this simple process. Step 1: Listen to 'One' by Metallica. Step 2: Go to metallica.com and read Lars opinion about the recent invasion of Iraq. Step 3: Look for the hypocrtical contradiction. Step 4: Laugh at Metallica, and Lars in particular. -------------------------------------------------- On a side note, I'm a huge Metallica fan, but no amount hype is going to get me to believe they've reverted to their 80's style. Q. Did Bob 'Pop'-Rock produce the new album? A. Yes. Q. Is Lars still in the band? A. Yes. Q. Is it 1984? A. No. Q. Will I buy the new album? A. Yes. Q. Will it be better than Load/Re-load? A. How can it possibly be worse? Q. But Will it be actually any good? A. I doubt it.
LaParkaYourCar Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Yeah Pushead really fell down on the job with all the artwork for this album.
Guest goodhelmet Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 i stopped caring about metallica about 12 years ago. no reason to start caring now
Guest Memphis Posted April 20, 2003 Report Posted April 20, 2003 Well, it says Metallica, that's simple enough to see, but the white stuff surrounding it? Is it supposed to be pointy edges? Pointy edges = record sales
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted April 20, 2003 Report Posted April 20, 2003 Pointy edges = record sales I could name about 100 various metal bands where that theory absolutely does not apply. Exhibit A:
Guest saturnmark4life Posted April 20, 2003 Report Posted April 20, 2003 It looks like a rendering of their logo on a really shitty bootleg t shirt. But it doesn't sway my opinion on them either way, so nevermind.
Guest Plushy Al Logan Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 New cover art: http://www.metallica.com/index.asp?item=970 Best burger ever: 1. Find Lars 2. Chop up Lars and cook him 3. Put his meat in between bread 4. Add whatever extra ingredients you want 5. Eat him! That solves the Metallica problem, next is brain surgery for James.
Guest NoCalMike Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Pointy edges = record sales I could name about 100 various metal bands where that theory absolutely does not apply. Exhibit A: Gorgasm = good shit GoreRodded is good too, I especially enjoy the song, "Bed 'em, behead 'em"

Guest The Metal Maniac Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 I can't find his comments on Iraq, but I'm going to make the assumption that the views expressed about Iraq contradict with the views expressed in the song One. To this, I say: 1. It's not really their opinions being expressed in One. It's the opinions of Dalton Trumbo, who wrote the book "Johnny Got His Gun" which, the song is based on. I mean, sure, they probably agreed with him, but I'm just sayin'. 2. That song was written over 10 years ago. Are you gonna tell me that none of your opinions, on anything, changed in the last 10 years? Are you the exact same person you were 10 years ago? Hey, I'm just saying, 10 years is a long time, and people change. Don't call people hypocritical because they changed their opinions on something in the last 10 years. Not that I'm trying to defend Lars, really, because I'm sick of the bastard too, but hey, I just figured I'd toss this out there. Oh, and the cover art looks dumb.
LaParkaYourCar Posted April 24, 2003 Report Posted April 24, 2003 Almost looks like it has snow on it. So this is an album of Metallica Christmas Songs?
