Say what you want about HTSD, but it was A-plus production while Kill ‘Em All sounds like it was made in a garage with a tape recorder. @Deadpulse, same on Chinese Democracy. I grew up with GnR, so both of you can claim that their (Metallica, GnR) earlier stuff was better than their later stuff and I wouldn’t argue. That’s not what I’m saying though.

Shockwave Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 How about Pink Floyd? Their oldest albums sound like the Beatles.. like completely two different bands between The Division Bell and The Piper at the Gates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I get it, but Chinese Democracy, if the first music I heard from GNR, would make me never listen to them again (if that were possible lol). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait... you like St. Anger more then Kill Em All and Ride the Lightning? 😳 I like Hardwired to Self Destruct and Death Magnetic alot...but St. Anger was a garbage heap... that snare drum is awful..

TENINCH Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I admit that I think that music that was produced and released after the orginal band broke up has produced (for me) more entertaining music. I like Wings far more than I like the Beatles. I'll take John Lennon, Ringo Star, and George Harrison's solo stuff over the Beatles too.

No. St. Anger doesn’t exist. They just released a single called Frantic and the rest doesn’t exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried Pink Floyd from first to last and couldn’t make it past their first three songs. Then I started in reverse and I am a Pink Floyd fan for like three albums.

But not always. I'm sure anyone reading this can think of plenty of examples that deviate from that norm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
