Kill em all is getting a bad rap on this thread, and I don't know why.  Seek and Destroy? Four Horsemen? Cliff Burton bass solo? Sheesh.
I like Kill em all and Justice, though the production sounds hollow on the latter. The new stuff, with a few exceptions, seems slow, dirge-like, and

They are playing Reading festival, 'll see them there.
Kill 'em all was a great album. Master of Puppets is their best, a real classic album.

I don't really care for Kill'em All all their post-Black Album stuff (although both have some decent stuff), the albums from Ride the lightning up to the Black Album are great though. Unfortunately, they seem to have peaked around RTL/Master of Puppets and have gone downhill ever since. But I'd still really like to see them live.

I only like their post black ballades or covers.

They have changed their tune since the Napster incident. I guess they didn't like all the bad word of mouth
They say they are going to focus more on the people that "do give a ****" rather than the ones that don't (who don't buy their albums).
Which is a good philosophy if you ask me. They need to dedicate themselves to the fans that do buy albums and concert tickets.
In any case Justice isn't getting a lot of good word of mouth. I love that album. I admit they did mix the album without much bass (esp bass drum- which sounds weak- but still sounds good in the song One). But they got some good stuff on this album. Very nearly as good as Master of Puppets- which is still their best album.

Best thrash band ever. Their albums before the Black Album are among the best in all metal. Then they sold out and started playing alternacrap. And they're a bunch of douches.

Then why are you having trouble saving images off their site. That's pretty freakin' petty if you ask me.
As far as their music is concerned, I own Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and And Justice for All. Personally I think that Justice is the best album with MoP as a close second. Ride the Lightning is not as good because Trapped Under Ice is a freakin' horrible song and the other two albums have no bad songs.
I still gotta say they suck though, and part of that is definately not based on their music. Lars is such a whining piece of crap it's intolerable. "...but, but we only have millions of dollars, we can't have people sharing our music 'cause then we might only have millions of dollars, and we can't let people take pictures from our site 'cause they're copyrighted and that would be stealing and, and..." And that's where someone needs to kick his ass. Anyway, that's what I think.

There are lots of sites that prohibit right clicking.

Not many people realize it, of course, but there is a way to get around this script, and it has to do with the alert box.
**Right click to activate the alert box.
**Then, while the alert box is open, hold down right click over the area you wish to right click.
**Then press enter to get rid of the alert box
**Then release right click, and the right click menu will appear
it also doesnt block the menu button that is included on many keyboards (next to the right windows key.

And that's only one of the myriad ways to do it (one has already been mentioned, of course)... in general, blocking right clicking is a sign of sheer idiocy.
