Metallica 3

Iconic and memorable band for the right and wrong reasons.  Some good (and one great) album(s).  Decent musicians who stayed true to their craft long after it wasn't necessarily in vogue to do so.  But something happened to this band that suggests that longevity isn't always good for artists. . .it wasn't just a few sub-par albums, the band was on the wrong side of the whole Napster fiasco and it went against the spirit of rock.  Boozing, bad-ass rockers stamping their feet in front of congress on behalf of the record industry making sure that people can't share music?  One of the most underrated dark days in rock history.

One of the greatest high school glue-sniffing albums ever. Talk about a narrow list. . .
