I suppose it's not obviously 'prog' in the same way that for example, Neu, Genesis, Yes, Till, Crimson, ELP, Dream Theatre, etc are. It's hard as there has to be a line in the sand drawn somwhere I think.

Great sig by the way.

u telling us what makes it prog instead of (or at the same time as) asking us why they arent would be a better method

You guys who want to see the gents of Metallica included might want to check out this thread that indulged itself in just this discussion a little while back.
Hope this is of use.

metallica only have a few prog tracks. Call of ktulu, orion, To Live is to Die, One, And Justice For All, Master of Puppets. Thas about it. It could be argued that MOP and AJFA are prog metal albums but everything else is standard metal.

No and if this site does, then it would be called THRASH N' PROG ARCHIVES.

they wouldn't even belong here if it was a metal site. Metallica voluntarily gave up the right to be talked about as serious music-makers at about the same time U2 did.

Bassist sucks the most.

Plus they are metal, not prog.

I wouldn't say they Prog but had their EPIC moments I'm not saying more than that!

But as we are on the Subject I saw then in a added on a Prog Rock Website not this one of course but still odd though!

NO I DONT THINK THEY ARE AN ADDITION FOR THE ARCHIVES!

For me RIDE THE LIGHTNING is the Defination Album for Them!

But according to some they are not naked, though I'm sure they where born naked, they never where naked again after that.

And THAT's what's the problem with them.

Being dressed all the time is SO NOT PROG.

It should at least be overdressed IMO.

Yes, THAT'S IT! Metallica are NOT NAKED, but still kind of UNDERDRESSED!

Therefore, they should not be added to the Prog Archives.

I've heard it said that ...And Justice for All is the best prog-metal album, but the line's got to be drawn somewhere. Sure there are interludes in most of their earlier songs, but it doesn't really make it prog. If you count Metallica as prog then you've got to count pretty much every other real metal band as prog.

I might consider Metallica's induction if they can create a better album than Crest of a Knave.

What does Metallica have to do with prog??? These guys are better off driving trucks from Alabama to Georgia than to play music. When I learn that somebody listens to Metallica, this person ceases to exist for me. He might as well listen to Eminem or country.

What a shame even to bring up this question! Prog listeners are supposed to be above Wal-Mart type of music!!

Listen

Metallica are one of my favorite bands, actually the first band I started to really follow when I was about 12 years, and I have the utmost respect and admiration for them.  But c'mon, they are a pure metal band - they are not prog and cannot be added to this site.  I think there is a misconception here.  Prog music does not mean good music - There is good prog and there is bad prog, just like any other music genre.  So the fact that I am saying that Metallica are not prog I am not saying they are not a good band.  And likewise, when a band is classified as prog, it does not mean that it is a good band.  We are here to discuss prog, and although Metallica is one of my favorite bands, it shouldn't be discussed here in a prog site.

Cheers
