No contest - Metallica all the way - especially since I saw them in concert - Justice for all tour & the black album tour
Metallica for sure, the only reason U2 are still around is because of Live Aid, does the Edge really deserve that name? i dont think he does, hes not that good. I especially like the fact that Robert Trujillo joined Metallica He looks so cool when performing.
Lol...they are totally two unrelated bands. I myself play metal and early metallica stuff contains some of the finest riffs ever in the history of metal. Metallica in truth though haven't produced anything of note in the past twenty years but their first four albums alone will put them forever in the annals of heavy metal while U2 isnt metal at all.
Yep..pretty hefty guy too..But skill wise,he is a cut below the great Cliff Burton. Cliff was different class IMO..
weird comparison it's like who do you like Rush or Iron Maiden what I like and hate them both for different reasons but if I had to chose between the two for the sake of the question posed to us here, in this the Metallica or U2? thread, I would have to say **Metallica **just so long as it's not the weak ass black album...unforgive this!!!
i voted for metallica, however, their last 3 albums wasent so good, i really like muster of puppets, ride the lightning, justice for all and the black album.
Both quite commercial, both quite old and both not very special to me. I go for Metallica but i like some U2 songs as well.
