Conor is panicking after Islam Porier

[HHJ]

Favorite song by Metallica? For me, it’s Blackened, despite Newsted being cranked way down in the mix. I’m told this was intentional bc they hasn’t really come to grips with the loss of Cliff. But, in no way is AJFA my favorite album. I’m still a MOP guy. Front to back, an absolute masterpiece.

Creeping death is the best song ever. I dont really choose whats second after that but probably most of the songs on RTL would dominate my top 10 list.

Dyer's eve is amazing though

MOP is of course great,both RTL and MOP were produced by Flemming GOATMussen who has made the best production of a musical album ever

I’m going with Orion @HHJ

You really cant go wrong with those three. There's no wrong answer.

I just think the urgency in Call of Ktulu followed by the fantastic climax, is the most legendary shit that has ever been done.

Maybe it can be saved.

Yeah, has someone already mentioned that Conor seems to live rent free in some people’s heads?

 

[chinarice]

Weird he would be thinking about the champ when he's never gonna win a fight again unless they match him up with the corpse of Tony Ferguson....

 

[mkt]

Rush is great of course.

Yes, but I won't turn this into a GSP thread.

 

[Prick_Flair]

Gotta go with Orion. The maturity of that composition for a bunch of early 20s thrashers is outstanding. And that outro riff.... woah daddy

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Maybe it can be saved.


What is a better instrumental? Call of Ktulu,Orion,or To Live is to Die (which does have SOME lyrics but mostly instrumental)

Call of Ktulu for me.

Not a big fan of Orion... To live is to die is brilliant... I don't like the intro tho. RIP Cliff

It's the opposite. All these champs from FW to WW keep bringing up Conor's name hoping for a big payday against a has-been who hasn't taken the sport seriously in years. Conor probably goes weeks without thinking about Islam, Topuria or Edwards.

Beyond delusional.

Seeing Islam be unable to take down Poirier of all people and be forced to stand with him, where he got hurt a few times, would have Conor's confidence through the roof.

 

[HHJ]

And that outro riff.... woah daddy

Yeah man

this shit is practically unfair.

I don't have a lot to add to the thread, in terms of opinions, but want to participate

Favorite song by Metallica? For me, it’s Blackened, despite Newsted being cranked way down in the mix. I’m told this was intentional bc they hadn’t really come to grips with the loss of Cliff. I’m not saying it’s their best written or most complete song, it just hits me in a way that I can’t explain. But, in no way is AJFA my favorite album. I’m still a MOP guy. Front to back, an absolute masterpiece.

Newsted was bullied for years... dude had a great presence at the stage. He won them over and then he left.

Dyers eve? From the same album.. great track too.

I like all of Metallica up until Saint Anger... that sucked. Load and Reload were interesting.

Try to stay on topic please.

This is a Metallica thread.

I don't think Conor is as popular as him and the UFC thinks - anymore

The melodic lead work at the beggining of Blackened is just disgusting. Like you just gotta make a screwed up face on how awesome that part is.

 

[RockyLockridge]

no it's a Metallica thread

..... I guess a hard left turn is the only way forward sometimes.

Im not really a rabid fan after and justice...but some of that stuff isnt bad. Its just losing Cliff as the main songwriter really hurt them and James lyrics started to get really bad and no one reeled him in

The riffs are there. Imagine what Cliff could have done with the riffs on Frantic,and it having proper production....aaaaaaand changing some of those shitty ass lyrics

IDK.. Frantic would have sucked anways. You can throw Sleep Token drummer in there replacing the shitty drums of Ulrich but the song is just not good.
