One of the greatest metal bands of all time....until St. Anger. In the 80's, Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and even ...And Justice for All owned everything (except for Iron Maiden). The Black Album was pretty cool too, but then they slowly deteriorated into the mess that they are, which many people seem to like even though it sounds very similar to every other crappy metal band now. They also have very expensive concert tickets.
When I heard St. Anger for the first time, I threw it out the bus window and remembered the albums when Metallica used to be awesome.

Get the metallica mug.Related Words
Total Assholes. Sellouts. Their usually listened to teenyboppers and wannabe hardcore kids. Mostly people who watch Fuse or MTV.
They like to sue and piss off everyone. They sued Napster just because of one little demo. And recently threatened to sue Wikipedia just for having some of their songs on their Backmasking page, when the idiots don't know that ANYONE can edit those pages.
They like to make fun of other bands, like Megadeth for example. And if you ask them why they will deny it like it never happend, even though there is truth to back it up.
Their songs are also way overplayed on Radio. I'm really sick of hearing "Enter Sandman", its way overrated, and there is nothing good about that song.

Metallica liked to brag about how they are the best Metal band to walk the earth, they usually did this at their concerts. And now they try to cover it up whenever someone asks them, so other bands won't beef with them. They also bash any other band who brags. They are such hypocrites.
Metallica suck. No REAL FAN of Metal would actually like them.
Also see:
Avril, a hypocritical artist who brags about something then lies about it like Metallica.

Get the Metallica mug.Otherwise known as the horrible affliction that swept the previously incredible 80's thrash metal bands in the early 90's, reducing them to greedy, selfish, hypocritical sell-out posers.
Subjects exhibiting Metallica Syndrome copies everything the disease's namesake does; build up a huge, devoted fanbase in the mid-80's underground by making fast, heavy, amazing albums, then suddenly fuck over all those true fans by releasing a softer, mainstream,album sometime around 1992-is, a sell-out album.
Later symptoms include earning a huge amount of money and even more fans (mostly weekend headbangers and posers), while abandoning devoted original fanbase, and core values and the style they were famous for in the first place.
More signs bands have Metallica Syndrome include a sudden, sharp increase of the band's attempted publicity, like on TV and the radio, conforming with mainstream music and its neverending attempt to force you to hear their music.
The last and most obvious symptom of the disease is making a 'comeback album', an CD like their 80's albums in style and intensity, basically one that should've been released in place of the shit albums. These albums sell just as well, if not better than their previous tries, and are often critically acclaimed as 'a return' or 'the comeback'. Most of the time, the bands have gone through a shitload of lineup changes and record labels, and don't sound the same, though faggot posers who say they like whatever band argue they do.

Unfortunately, several of the best thrash metal bands have been infected with Metallica Syndrome:
1. Megadeth (their non '...' containing album titles and Endgame)
2. Testament (anything in the 90's, basically, and The Formation of Damnation)
3. Exodus (1991-2007, followed by The Atrocity Exhibition later that year)

Get the Metallica Syndrome mug.
The band Metallica makes the word epic seem less overused. Redefined music itself in the 80's, easily the greatest band in the history of music.
Stan: I'm going to go listen to dubstep and lil wayne, come on!
Joe: I'd rather strap myself to the wing of a turbine. I'm going to listen to Metallica, they're fucking epic!
