Past their primes - What are they doing?

[Maynard]

I agree that Metallica should have stopped a few years ago too, but not because of their music, but because of their attitudes towards it. As soon as Lars fought Napster, they should have broke up. Yes, their new music isn't the same old Kill Em All, but it's evolution. All bands change over time. And they're still playing hard rock/heavy metal tunes, just now they're more radio friendly and commercial because of MTV.
