I simply posted a link to an Ultimate Guitar article written by something called jorgeM93 and invited discussion. Then, as usual, most people just replied with irrelevant random and downright ignorant shit without reading and commenting on the actual article so I posted the most relevant part and highlighted the most pertinent part of that. Which I think summed it up better than any of the asshats here. Yes I do like and own the album. I do not own (nor have I ever heard Pull) so why would I do that?? I get where he's coming from. First off, I haven't noticed 90's nostalgia hitting a peak. Maybe it is in some parts, but in my area, no one cares. Secondly, even if there was a wave of 90's nostalgia, the last bands anyone would be clamoring for would be Motley Crue and Winger. Outside of die hard fans, no one cared about them in the 90's; and outside of the same die hards, no one cares now. It's not like anyone is going to get on a big 90's kick and spin Hooligans Holiday and Blind Revolution Mad alongside Smells Like Teen Spirit and Even Flow.

Hello dopehead!! We see you!!
And, I'll speak on behalf of the esteemed contributors to this thread when I say holdenssv and psychobolia and DemonFilth2001 and shocker and suckit and *ech* and Vinny do not take kindly to being called asshats, and if you did not want to opinions of this forum's contributors you should not have posted as we come here for lively and fun discussion, and you should learn tolerance of others' opinions even if they do not comport with your own (that is the value and wonder of opinions and the purpose of our forum), and if you wanted people to actually read the article, you should have posted something more interesting and something worth reading.
On behalf of this thread's contributors,
The Nobleman

Eggzackly... ppl aren't going to feel "nostalgia" for something that they didn't like when it 1st came out. Not how it works.

In the Motley discography, MC94 ranks 6. Maybe 7 or 8. Anything higher than 6 is incorrect, indicative of a troll or somebody with their ears in their ass.

An album that filled the used CD bins and a tanking tour was "redemption"? For/from what? Their prior success?

Redemption for being too poppy and flooded with Filler on the three previous albums.

Can't fault Bob Rock. If the band brings good songs, he puts his name on the "black album", if the band brings shitty songs, he puts his name on "Load/Reload"... Wrong.
We've been over this, but I can see you haven't learned your lesson.
The black album is shit due to both the sterile production and the generic songs. It's like something DemonFilth2001 would like. It's Metallica's Permanent Vacation. Everybody knows that.
Me?
I don't like fake shit clearly engineered for mass consumption. The songs are so bad, they have to trick the idiots with production gimmicks.
It's not the commercial appeal that makes it bad. It's the bad songs that make it bad, and the sanitized production isn't tricking this guy.
Now.
Take Matchbox 20. There's a a band with really well-written commercial rock songs. Matchbox's 20's worst album, North, is better than anything Metallica has released since 1990. Easily. No question. Case closed.
So.
Fuck Bob Rock. Fuck Metallica. Fuck Huey and fuck Steven Tyler.
And to anyone who likes the black album, fuck you too.
Psychobolia, fuck you too. All you mother fuckers. DemonFilth2001, fuck you too.
All you Bob Rock cock schlock mother fuckers, fuck you too.
The Nobleman And fuck Bahana too.
