    Do you love the Beatles? Do you love Metallica?...

    How about both together :?:

    Well then check this out!

    BEATALLICA

    This is a pretty amazing juxtaposition. The Beatles meet Metallica. A couple of guys got together, wrote and recorded songs based on a particular Beatles, and a particular Metallica song. It's acutally very creative, and very good. If you stop and think about what it took to put these songs together, in a way that both of the original songs are represented, and intact (for the most part.) Most of the lyrics have been changed in order to keep in context of the idea of the blend. But to sit down and pick out a song from each artist, that can be blended into one entity. Takes quite a bit of talent and creativity. Check it out. You've got to be a little familiar with Metallica to get it though.

    Most everyone has heard just about every Beatles song. But you've got to be pretty familiar with the Metallica catalog to really enjoy some of these. Otherwise some of the songs, especially the takes on early Metallica material, won't make as much sense, or be nearly as entertaining.

    BUT... Many can be enjoyed regardless.

    Check out tracks like Hey Dude, I Want To Choke Your Band, Sandman, and Blackened the USSR.

    Not everyone here will enjoy this, or even find it slightly entertaining or amusing. But for those who have a taste for Metallica, and the absolute respect and appreciation for what the Fab Four gave us. You just might burn these MP3s to a disk to keep around.

    One other thing. The guy who does (basically a James Hetfield impression) the vocals for the project. Is fantastic, he has really got it nailed.

    :-y :dudes: :righton:

    As long as people will accept crap, it will be financially profitable to dispense it.

    BTW You don't have to download the Torrent client to listen to the songs. That's only if you want to stream them. Right Click and "Save Target As" to pull down the MP3s. WERD

      Thanks Rock Dog, that's hilarious! :rofl:

      Good , fun stuff. :B

      Not a fan of Metallica. I do like a few of their songs here and there. But I am familiar with plenty of their songs. Sure love the Beatles, though.

          Beatles Songs
          by Lex
          I am listening to a song called Nothin' Shakin' performed by the Beatles. This song goes way back to the beginnings, it may in fact be someone else's composition. I swear I have NEVER heard them do this song.

          sort of Chuck Berry influence, and a little rockin country sound to it. hmmmm....

          Jackson scooped away the rights to the Beatles' song publishing in 1985 from pal Paul McCartney, who had hoped to buy back the rights to his own...

          There are a few things I've been waiting for all me life. Flying cars, an action film winning an Oscar, and Star Wars on DVD. Another thing I always wanted was a good collection of Beatles songs without having to spend a ton of cash. Lo and behold I found The Beatles, 1. The CD contains 27 of their...

          Update to Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time
          by Chris D


          In the last few days, Rolling Stone Magazine has updated their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The list originally appeared in 2004. I found this to be very interesting, as well as the Wikipedia page entry for this list.

          These factoids are interesting....

          Pet Peeve - Re-using song melodies

          So I have to vent. Can't take it any more.

          Maybe it's just me, but I've never been able to stand it when musicians re-use melodies from other songs, trying to put it to brand new lyrics to create a "new song".

          First there was Vanilla Ice,...
