This is usually used when you or someone that is with you enters a discussion which involves bands that have sold out or are now shit and someone "discretely" names Metallica with this 'so awesome no-one-will-ever-find-out-what-I-just-said' term. And you NEVER use it just for another way to (maybe discretely) say Metallica because this term is in a way an insult to this previously-good-but-now-shithouse band. Also in some places you could be beaten and raped by people within a 15-metre radius in some places for doing this, but since it's not allowed it's better to get beaten and raped by people within 15 metres than raped by people within your city/town limits.
Person 1: Hey did you go see In Flames back in 2002?
Person 2: Yeah but I was expecting them to play some stuff off Clayman but they started playing some teasers for Reroute to Remain which I hated.
Person 1: God that sucks.
Person 2: Yeah I know. They're fags.
Person 1: Sell outs need to be killed.
Person 2: *cough* Metallica *cough*

Get the Ac/Dc Vs. Metallica mug.Related Words
Radio friendly metal band. People who listen to this band think they are "metalheads" and think that this is "real music". Possibly one of the most overrated bands ever.

Get the metallica mug.One of the pioneers of hard metal in the 80's, they later lost their soul and their hair to the establishment, in essence becoming pawns in the capitalist game of chess. No, checkers.
Originally heralded as anti-establishment, following the heart of Metal with excessive drinking (which earned the nickname AlcohollicA) and substance abuse, however this all changed when they hired a group therapist to sort out the mess that substance abuse and alcohol usually cause (though most bands suck it up). These therapy sessions can be seen in the box-office crap, "some kind of monster," the video recordings of the death of metallica. After the invasion of unwanted sanity, Metallica cut their hair, joined the vanguard against napster to a point of obsession and supported the career of Avril Lavigne. Damn her.
Once Gods among Men, now pussyfied shadows, less metal than Poison but without the ironic tongue in cheek likeability.

Get the Metallica mug.Without a doubt the greatest metal band to grace the music scene. Were the pioneers and innovators of thrash metal and some of the most influential musicians ever. From the 90's with the release of The Black Album, have gone mainstream, and with the release of St Anger seemed to lose a lot of their old fans. Also lost fans due to Napster protest. However still rocking hard, and big hopes for new album. No matter what they do will always be known as the kings of metal
Metallica are the best band ever. Period

Get the Metallica mug.A group of pussies that think they can write good music. The truth is, they just plain suck. Then They bitched about people downloading their music on Napster and ruined it for everyone.

Get the Metallica mug.One of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time. Band members consist of one of the greatest frontmen in metal, and great rythm guitarist, James Hetfield, great drummer Lars Ulrich, excellent bassist Robert Trujilo, and a great lead guitarist, Kirk Hammett. Has had many other talented musicians, such as kickass bassists Cliff Burton and Jason Newsted and Megadeth guitarist Dave Mustaine. Have been known to break the horrible hair metal rockstar era in the 80's, and in 1986 making one of the greatest metal albums of all time, Master of Puppets. Their sound influenced many other great bands to play thrash metal, such as Slayer.
people who say Metallica sold out just need to grow up. metallica is one of the few bands that had the balls to sue napster's ass, and experiment with their sound while not giving a fuck about what other people think of them. their live shows still kick fucking ass, anyone who doesnt think so can take a look at some vids from the 2003 madly in anger tour
