THE best band on earth, with the best song in the world, "Fade To Black". Formed in 1981 by drummer lars ulrich, Metallica released their first album, "Kill 'Em All" in 1983, followed by "Ride the Lightning" ("Fade to Black"'s album) the greatest album in the history of the earth, in 1984. Tragically, in 1986 Cliff Burton died shortly after recording "Master of Puppets". Burton was replaced by bassist Jason Newsted. Although no one could replace Cliff Burton, the show must go on. If you don't believe me, just listen to his bass solo "(Anesthesia)--Pulling Teeth). Newsted's First Record with metallica was "Garage Days Re-Revisited", An EP with five songs. In 1988, they released "...And Justice For All", with their most popular thrash song, "One". Sadly, three years later, Metallica sold out with "Metallica" a.k.a. "Black Album". It was a decent album, but it had a mainstream sound and was twice as popular as any other Metallica album, causing Metallica fans to be also labeled as Daniel Powter fans, and The Fray fans.
I'd say more up there, but i ran out of space. So, to sum it all up, Metallica is better than megadeth, suck now but have the occasional good song, *coughstonecoldcrazycough*, and need to be good again.

None of you dissing metal here know shit about metal. You're thinking of Grindcore and/or Nu Metal, they both suck balls and should die. When you say Heavy Metal is killing rock 'n' roll, then your only right if you're thinking of Nu Metal, which is true; it is. But most of your rock 'n' roll is metal, believe it or not.Led Zeppelin(sometimes), Guns n' Roses, Metallica, Def Leppard, Black Sabbath, Megadeth, AC/DC, etc, they're metal. When it comes to the whole satan thing, that's black metal, and that IS in fact, screaming, most of the time. "Bad" metal is not very common. The only metal that appears on shitty MTV is again, Nu Metal, thanks to NU metal and Nu Metal only is Rock 'N' Roll dying.
Look into Heavy Metal before you define it, and you wont be considered "Stupid".
P.S To the guy who dissed Slipknot, your absolutely right, They suck big ol' Elephantitis infected balls.

A heavily underappreciated yet kick-ass song by Metallica. Written by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, and Kirk Hammet, it's track three of eight on there album, "Master of Puppets".
Messenger of fear in sight
Dark deception kills the light
Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for father, roaming free
Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Great old one
Forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell
Crawling chaos underground
Cult has summoned twisted sound
Out from ruins once possessed
Fallen city, living death
Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Timeless sleep
Has been upset
He awakens
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell
In madness you dwell
Not dead which eternal lie
Stranger eons, death may die
Drain you of your sanity
Face the thing that should not be
Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Great old one
Forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell

"Real gangsta in da house", u r probably THE biggest faggot i have ever seen. after reading ur definition for classic rock, i was thinking, "wtf is this bullshit?!?!"
First of all, Led Zepppelin didn't invent metal and P. Shitty is not better than led zeppelin. You said it yourself,"I haven't heard them", fucking posuer...
Second of all, elvis didn't create rock; rock was created by the black man(I forget his name), dumbass...
Third of all, rap is not superior to rock, rap is bullshit, and i'm not a racist for disagreeing, i mean, after all, i hate all white rappers out there too
Fourth of all, Swearing doesn't help music to be actual music, and since your dad likes pink floyd im guessing he's white, which means ur an oreo
Fifth of all, u must be confused because OLD music is good and the NEW stuff sucks
Sixth of all, computer generated music is the opposite of music because it takes COMPUTER talent to make(it might not even take talent
), not MUSICAL talent
Seventh of all, most rock and metal is not about satan and drugs
Plus, i read your other definitions and they all prove that ur an even bigger fag than your "classic rock" definition makes you. Nu Metal sucks balls, so old metallica is by far better than new metallica(See New Metallica). MTV sucks balls too(see MTV Rocks for what "Real gangsta in da house" said), and that jimi hendrix that u have'nt seen on MTV was the greatest guitarist ever and he was black. And it's true that MTV is killing music, if not, it already has. Not rap is not for these "filthy gawth"s u speak of. U say u dont know wat a posuer (<- that is how its really spelled) is but u use it to make fun of people u don't like, which makes YOU a bigtime posuer
Now for the definition:
Classic rock is basically any rock(excluding Metal)from the 80's and earlier. Classic Metal is metal from the 80's and earlier
Classic Rock Bands:
Led Zeppelin
AC/DC
Deep Purple
The Rolling Stones
Pink Floyd
Queen
Lynyrd Skynyrd
The Beatles
Aerosmith
The Doors
Jimi Hendrix
Van Halen
Guns N' Roses(yes they are)
The Who
Rush
Foreigner
The Eagles
Black Sabbath(more like Classic Metal, though)
Def Leppard(Same Here)
A shit load more
