Metallica meets politics. Kinda. Don't be using their music without permission!

I’m no expert but isn’t Metallica known for being sticklers about this sort of thing?

No one is worse than metallica, love their music, hate them as people

There's way worse bands out there. Metallica at least keep their political views well away from their music. Cause they are old as fuck and probably all right wingers these days; and know they'd be cancelled in a heartbeat

No bit torrent without this case! Likely no fediverse without it too. And Metallica weren't even the first to file vs Napster. Who were pretty shameful in their piracy, and trying to profit from it too

NAPSTER BAD. MONEY GOOD.

I support them on this however.

Why don’t they just use Ted Nugent or Kid Rock songs for this kind of stuff? Oh right, their music sucks.
