Metallica... Still kicking ass![/caption]A few months ago I was working on a piece for the site and came across a relatively recent photo of Metallica... And I have to say that I was surprised by what I saw! What I mean by this, is that they looked older! Not senior citizen old... But like middle aged men!
There isn't anything wrong with this, I mean their first album came out roughly about a year after I was born, but I got to thinking of all of the other great musicians that have been kicking ass and taking names for literally decades and I realized something... Where are they?
What I mean by this, is I have noticed that a lot of the bands that have been hitting the popularity circuit are newer bands... And so I had to ask... Where are they?

Disturbed... A newerish band that is helping to keep heavy metal bad ass![/caption]Now before I go on, I will say that it is true, that like everything, eventually there is a changing of the guard, when the old guard has to turn it over to the next generation... So I say to you guys... It is not that time and these aging bands are still good... As a matter of fact, with what is passing for, 'popular music' in this day and age... We need the monsters of metal and rock to come back and kick ass one more time!
Now I am sure that people like, 'Justin Bieber' and his nutso ilk are liked by a lot... But the music industry is now dominated by these people who have weekly breakdowns and scandals... We need the monsters of metal like, 'Metallica', 'Ozzy Osbourne', 'Marilyn Manson' to come out of obscurity and take down these obnoxious twits that have taken over and bring back some dignity to the world of music once more!
So again I say... Aging Heavy Metal & Rock Bands... Still Have Value!
