Sorry but I have to disagree with you ... Metallica didnt "evolve" they just plain sold out for the almighty doller
Back in the old days they let the music and the loyal fans do the talking, they didnt even make a music video till One came out
Then 10 years later it was all about "radio friendly" albums and music videos for movies (ie Mission Impossible 2) in order to make the quan ... then came the law suits etc etc
I listen to a wide range of music and different genres and bands can change or evolve without losing their edge or selling out (Slayer, Led Zeppelin, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide for example)
And then you have metallica, the misfits, anthrax so on and so forth and to them its all about the bank account ..
