Metallica’s James Hetfield was fine with the use of their music as torture. So Chumbawamba wrote this.

Metallica sucks.

I couldn't figure out why they let the documentary "some kind of monster" ever be released. In it, they are shown to be the out-of-touch, soft, and pampered rich cunts that they are. They haven't released a good album since 1984. And it's probably been that long since any of them had anxiety about money.

(except what they "lost" to Napster of course. That was a painful time and I'm glad to see they made it through, somehow)

Metallica sucks

    lol Chumbawamba did another song about musicians opposing Napster etc.

    Though I find it less catchy than torturing James Hetfield

    “MP3 Mix

    The group recorded an alternate mix of the song titled the "MP3 Mix”. This version was a sound collage, critiquing and sampling without permission artists who opposed file sharing, including Metallica, Eminem, Dr. Dre, The Beatles, and Madonna.”
