I don't know why Bucky, but Anthrax just misses for me...
Slayer I can play once in a while, but their songs as I have said before seem to be so similar that I only need one of their albums.
M & M are both good bands, and still making good music today.
I haven't heard that new song Bucky...what's the title?
When Metallica puts out a string of hugely successful singles done on acoustic guitar like "Photograph" and "Rockstar" then I'll be a bit more inclined to believe your claim.
