What is it with you and wife-beating?

No idea. Also I'm fairly certain my wife would stab me instantly at the suggestion I might hit her.

She'd probably welcome it to drown out "Sad but True".

Ha, we don't listen to Metallica in the car because it's "chaotic and awful" and when I said that's why it's good she turned up the DMB.

It reminds me of the line in GI Jane "If I want your opinion, I'll give it to you".

"Harvester of Sorrow" is atrocious.

Definition of "stereoptypes clash with ****".

I'm sorry Batlord.


"Sad but True" actually has some value/is cool.

To put a finer point on my preference for SBT, AJFA is an album that has a lot of baggage imo.

It's Metallica's "CNN Days" as Lars put it. It's bought into 1980s wankery. That album feels very one-dimensional. Telling songs apart when you hear them live is like "oh it's blackened!...no, wait, that's frayed end of...is it? Ah **** it's harvester of sorrow." It lost to Jethro Tull at the Grammys, it will forever sound compressed to hell.

The one metric HoS wins on, over SBT is the B-side. The B-side for HoS is "Breadfan" and which is much better than [Checks wikipedia] "Harvester of Sorrow." (and somehow like, 4 other songs?)
