    They are one of the best live bands of all time.

    For me they are neck and neck with PJ as far as putting on killer live shows. Metallica just adds a whole shit load of eye candy and set stuff too.

    Kirk.... this guys is one bad motherfucker with a guitar

    Even when they put out shit albums they put on great live shows. They know what to play and more importantly what not to play.

    Saw em at Ozz Fest this year (front row) and they were awsome. I'm going again tonight and I can't wait!

    They were fantastic as late as 2000. The Metallica show I saw that year is probably one of my top 5 or 10 concert experiences all time. The energy was unbelievable.

    But I've seen them twice with Rob Trujillo and they definitely seem to have lost a few MPH off of their heater. Could be age, could've been the St. Anger material, the change in bass players, the stuff they were going thru as a band at the time...

    All that said, if you haven't seen them, it's probably worth it. I will probably go if they hit Atlanta on the Death Magnetic tour.

    Great fucking live band, seen them numerous times and don't really care for the albums though this new one is great. Looking forward to hearing the new songs live.
