They Destroyed More Than That
Please don’t hate me for my rant, but when Metallica had Napster shut down, they ruined my childhood. Looking back, I can see their argument; nevertheless, it has jaded me against them for the last 20 years. We’re right back where we started, and you can easily find and download any song using services like Spotify, iTunes Music Store, Apple Music, or Google Play Music All Access.
I’m still a little irritated about it. If you enjoy them, I’d like to offer you these two interesting facts. #1 One of their albums had a green rather than blue cover due to a printing error. It’s the only one that exists, with just 400 copies. #2 Kirk Hammet’s first guitar was plugged into a shoebox with a four-inch speaker installed, according to his biography. There! Please forgive me for my attitude.
