Now those are REAL musicians, not, to paraphrase Kurt Cobain ,"corporate **** metal" that is Metallica.
p.s.: not to mention that they're real bitches in real life...i saw this documentary about them, and they were all talking about their feelings like some women...you won't see Zach de la Rocha or Cedric Bixler speaking about how " they've really grown as people and went through some tuff times but have talked about it and grew stronger.." yada yada...
