They’re as kick-ass as ever. I’ve been following them for 35 years, and figured a post-concert episode is perfect timing.I get into their history, their phases, some of the business and politics, and make a case for them being the ONLY truly heavy metal band that has had mega-world-wide success. I also talk about why they’re more than just a metal band.Are you a Metallica fan? If so, which kind are you? A fan of their early hardcore thrash albums and nothing else? A Metallica (aka The Black Album) convert like so many? A die-hard follower year after year? How do you think they’ve held up after 11 albums?
