Got news for you. They still won't.
I would like to believe what #1 says would come to pass but I agree with you BJ that it likely won't.
We were just in the greatest college basketball conference in history. Notice a remarkable difference in coverage, attention or attitude from the media?

I'm far ranging, but the idea of listening to Metallica makes me wanna puke.
Since Lance is the subject, I'll post one positive thing about him: he uses (or used to anyway) The Who as his intro.
i've just discovered the joy that is early metallica. that and black sabbath and iron maiden. fun music! my wife is less than enthused. i made music for our wedding and while doing so i was listening to
and she said, "kristofer! i said no metallica!"
i looked at her and shrugged. wasn't going to add it anyway
IMO, some of Black Sabbath's best music is on Vol. 4 - also, what is very overlooked is the musicianship of Geezer Butler and Bill Ward, those two are absolutely overshadowed by Oz and Tony. If you ever get a chance to hear just the bass and drum tracks together, it's amazing what you'll hear.
If you want some old school 80's thrash (other than the big 4) check out Overkill - very under rated. Years of Decay is a great old school disc (on par with Master of Puppets). I'd also recommend their newest - White Devil Armory, straight out punch you in the face hard rock.
This thread has all the sudden become great It has shifted from Lance (who couldn't possibly be any less deserving of a thread subject) to great music.
Indeed Lush, there are songs that, regardless of genre, simply transcend audiences. "Sanitarium" is one of the best examples, and truth be told, has become my personal theme song (along with Pantera's "Cemetery Gates"). If an indie-rocker like yourself can gravitate towards "Sanitarium", then Coop might just be able to tolerate it :-)
Conversely, although I am not on Coop's side of the spectrum, there are plenty of songs I dig. The Cure is an obvious example of a transcendant sort of group. "Love Song" in particular, is a thing of beauty, but this is probably my favorite Cure song:
Rath, in terms of obscure Sabbath - check this one out. Some of my favorite songs are the ones never heard over the air.

You guys talked about black, here's blue. BOC was certainly an acquired taste. 30 years ago, I acquired it, and still glad I did. I never really got sick of it. Another obscurity:
The group was so much more than "Reaper" and "Godzilla", though hardly anyone would ever know.
