That's 'cause Lars is, I dunno... an egomaniac. Don't know what he was thinking. No doubt about that.. you know " Napster BAAADDDD " .. This record is selling like hot cakes and they are raking in the buks.. and rightfully so, it's a really good album.. but as far as I'm concerned, the 90% of the credit goes to Kirk Hammett.. and James finaly has his vocals where they need to be.. the new basist is good as well, even if can't reall hear him that well..Lars is Lars, and he has not learned a thing since the napster debacle.. still giving the paying fans the finger !.

I gotta disagree on the Napster thing. It was handled poorly, but his later explanation holds water for me. Napster was, after all, a for profit company whose sole purpose was to profit off of musicians' work without paying a dime for it.

That's what I meant.. the way they handled it..sorry I should have clarified, I agree with you that what Napster was doing not right.. but I also have an issue with record company charging what they do for a CD, from what I understand, not a lot of that $20 goes to the artist..

Oh, likewise. That's why I don't buy CDs very often.

Fred, seriously, "butter" and "Diana Krall" equals "voice"? For music commentary, yes. If it was one of CV's stories...

Are they getting airplay in the US? You don't often see Canadian artists getting much attention in the US.
