Metallica.

My number one, all time favourite band. I've been listening to them since I was in diapers. The first song I remember hearing by them was "Disposable Heroes" Off the "Master Of Puppets" album.
With the exception of "St Anger" (which was a shit album, imo) I love all their music. Even their new album is surprisingly good!

I like a couple of songs but I'm not going to say I'm a 'fan'. That's as far as my Metallica knowledge goes!

Ooh, I've listened to them since I was little, too, Ash. My oldest brother has been a fan for years, and some of my earliest memories include standing on his bed, headbanging to Enter Sandman.
So I've grown up around them & their music, and as an early birthday present, my parents got me a ticket to see them last Saturday with said brother. Glyder (Irish band), Mastodon, Alice in Chains & Avenged Sevenfold were supporting, so it was a bit like a mini festival, we were there all day. It started getting dark just as Metallica were coming on, so the pyrotechnics looked great, and then the music. Eee, the music<333
The older songs were the highlight of the night tbh. I don't know a whole lot of their music, just certain songs, mainly older ones. It was still awesome though. xD

your saw Alice in Chains toooo?!?!
/jealousygrowing (AIC is another one of my favourite bands)
That concert sounds amazing, Shaz, you're so lucky you got to go! I've never had an opportunity to see them before. They're not even coming to Washington on their current tour, so I have to wait for next time

Awww! :[!
Well, whenever you get the chance (it's definitely when, not if ;D) it'll be so worth it, Ash. They're brilliant.
Alice in Chains were good too, I just didn't know any of their songs. xD
My brother likes them, and he assured me that they were good too, but even not knowing their music, I still liked them.
