Can women rock too?

Is Lars Ulrich a Canuck? Wtf? He certainly sounds like a Canadian.


He ain't no Ronnie Van Zant.

He was born in Denmark. Lol.

Exhibit A . . . He belches and says "I almost threw up" up on stage, and the crowd loves it. If a woman was to do that . . . it surely wouldn't come across the same.

**** That Shit ... If You're Gonna Play Some Metallica
Make It Worthwhile ...

Seek and Destroy!

I never claimed Kirk Hammet was not badass.

That is a cover of a Thin Lizzy song, you know.

The song has been around longer than Thin Lizzy ...
I still like Metallica's version better than Thin Lizzy's version.

I do love Heart too. I'm not saying any of these other artists are bad. I'm doing a side by side comparison is all.

My favorite Heart tune is Magic Man.

 

[ChrisL]

Actually, I think I like this one a little better. Awesome tune!

I like Paint It Black better by Ciara ... Too

She is really an amazing vocalist. She does rock.

 

[Marion Morrison]

Badass girl there! Yeah, She rocked.

 

[ChrisL]

But here is the thing. Heart songs lyrics are like all about crying in pain, a clear running stream, a gentle kiss and sweet flowing love. Lol.

To contrast, Metallica is like, ****! I almost barfed dude, and then they proceed to rock out about death and destruction.

Metallica is not Rock and Roll is my point, ChrisL.





It cannot be defined as such.

Maybe some Kirk Hammet solos, but, by and large, no.

Linda Rondstadt gets more in that category, js.

I really prefer the old Metallica with Cliff Burton. RIP.

Yes, they are heavy metal which is a sub-genre of rock and roll.

[ChrisL]

In fact, compared to some of the other heavy metal bands (or death metal if you prefer), they are just plain rock and roll. They aren't very heavy compared to some.

PS. I don't like that real heavy stuff with all the growling/belching sounds that they pass off as singing.

 

[Marion Morrison]

IMO, It doesn't qualify for Rock n Roll with no Chuck Berry-ish things.
