Nothing wrong with broadening your horizons - you are never too wise to learn something new.
I was getting sick and tired of his fast paced wah solos that all sounded the same - let’s hope that he steps up his game a little. Would be nice if Marty Friedman was doing the tutoring…

Maybe..but 30 years after you picked up the instrument and something like 8 studio albums in before you learn how to play the thing is leaving it a tad late in the day.

Well, even though I rate many higher I wouldn’t claim that Kirk needs to “learn how to play”. I just find his style repetative and boring. Learing some new scales and licks may add to his variety.

Plus a metronome. Playing live to Lars can’t help his accuracy any.

lol. kirk has actually been getting lessons for ages. he admitted he was learning jazz licks and songs back in 1996. i hope the new metallica album has a bit more variety than songs in e minor with wah wah solos.

According to Lars, the songs have a lot more dynamics and variety than St anger Load and Reload. He said there is slow, fast, heavy and mellow sections all within the same songs.

That sounds shit! My translation is: Rambling songs with no proper structure and no direction that go on WAY too long.
St Anger part II, in short.

only tuned to E with wah solos throughout!
they really need to write shorter songs - not longer ones!

What they really need is to have something they feel passionately about - to have something to write about. THAT provides the dynamics more than any stop/starty heavy/soft fast/slow nonsense ever will.

Or AJFA part 2- dunno which is worse, Justice lack of direction or St Angers lack of dynamics and structure.

No I agree that “..And Justice” showed a real lack of direction. I wasn’t a Metallica fan back then, but God knows what fans must have thought when that came out as the successor to “…Puppets”…

I think it was the most progressive metal that Metallica put out there. I was just pissed off with the recording i.e. lack of bass guitar.

I love “… And Justice”. It is a shame the bass is non existent though, as it would have filled out the sound nicely.

AJFA has some great moments…blackened is their best song IMO but by about track 7 i get bored with it. and to live is to die meanders along aimlessly.

It DOES have its moments - Blackened, One, Dyers Eve - but having heard their live “Justice Medleys” the weaker tracks don’t sound any better for having the bass restored to them.
