pre black album hetfield's voice was a bit more back and vibing with the guitars,not so up front.....his voice and the guitars were working together.......he yell/sang prior to the black album,and he's an awesome yell/singer.......everybody loved it....it made metallica's sound.....
post black album he sang more and yelled less and the engineer put his voice out in front of those cheesy ass riffs like "nothing else matters".......and now it's like he's competing with bob seger.......and the guitar riffs are seriously easier to play on guitar than poison's "talk dirty to me"..........
so all of us guitar players who just learned "and justice" and everything prior were dumbfounded by the fact that metallica thought we would wanna go from "the shortest straw" to any stupid song on the black album.......we liked the challenge of the speedy riff's and that ALL died with that goofy pop sounding ,simplistic riffed black album....
all because hetfield yell's great but can't sing to good........but i remember him as a master class yeller....a monster of sorts..........it's hard to yell all the time,so people should understand his job was really hard on the throat........and it's not over till it's over..........uh,is it over? { just being positive}
