Re: Metallica
Well, I saw this new AIC line-up 2 years ago live, and I can tell you that their new singer can match Layne Staley note-for-note on the old stuff.
However, he sure as hell is not as charismatic as Layne, you know, technically the guy is there, but the feeling isn´t the same, and Layne´s dark and troubled voice was like the "MVP" of Alice In Chains.

Re: Metallica
^^^thanks for posting that i was curius to how they sound now (been since late 80's early 90's since i was listening to them
musically i thought it was pretty damn good....but james's voice is horrible now. what the hell is he thinking. doesnt sound metal at all and it puts to shame the original recoridngs.
i was a huge fan back in the day... a fanatic really, and since bob rock recreated hetfields voice it just doesnt fit with the music like it did in there early days.
Re: Metallica
if he still could sing like he did on MOP. His voice would be so screwed up by all the growl he put into his voice back then, he'd have to have voice surgery. Like Tom Keifer of Cinderella.
Re: Metallica
what?? lol on that reasoning. phil anselmo has sung that way his whole life and he sounds the same as he did bak in the 80's hell james sang that way for over 10 years with no issues. has notghin to do with it. bob rock taught him how to sing in key and he sounds like crap now....
that kind of music needs a rough around the edge voice
