Hmm, but Metallica had the film crew follow them around for quite a long period of time so everything that happened in that time (hiring the therapist, meeting with Mustaine) was captured on film. Its still a documentary.
Their music has certainly suffered over the years. Load was average at best, Reload was disappointing, Garage Inc was un-neccessary and St. Anger was ****. Personally I thought S&M was absolutely beautiful.
Their newer stuff may have won them a few younger fans but if Metallica are still "held on such a high pededstal" I would say its because of their older stuff really.
How would you define the term 'sell out'?
