Random Heavy Metal

For, as best I can tell, no particular reason, Crooks and Liars has posted Metallica's "One". I think they want you to believe this has some relevant anti-war message.

The video clearly lays out an anti-war position, but it was made over a decade ago, and can't really be taken as present political positions by the band.

Of more relevance, this was the last "great" album Metallica made (everything else has been "shit" to use the modern, technical term). Enjoy the music, take the politics with a grain of salt.

Alas, "One" is one of the lamer songs on that album, musically speaking. But U agree that they've done nothing of similar merit since.

Er, "I agree". Damn pre-caffeine hands.
