The Great Divide: Metallica Vs Motley Crue by Keavin Wiggins. Zane has a great feature on his blog called 'Now Playing'. So he innocently asked me if I wanted to write a little something for it and I agreed. So I grabbed my iPod and hit shuffle and Metallica's 'Fade to Black' came on. I started thinking about what I could write about the song and as what always seems to happen a torrent of thoughts and reflections came rushing out. So the little blurb turned into 18 and half thousand words. What can I say? It's like I told Zane, it was sort of like that line from 'Almost Famous' and I was writing pages and pages of dribble just to write. I guess subconsciously this topic's been in the back of head for a while just waiting for the chance to come out. I'm sure it's nothing like what Zane expected, but it is what it is. Here is how I witnessed the great divide and the conclusions I drew from it. This did run on Zane's blog but somehow slipped through the cracks here at anti, but with Metallica's Rock Hall induction it seems fitting to look back on the band's impact on metal. I've slightly updated it since it was written before both Motley Crue and Metallica released their latest albums - Keavin Smoking Something In The BoardroomThe memory is still fresh in my mind like it was just yesterday. It was right before summer break of my 7th grade year. I walked into my history class and saw my friend Rob with a look on his face like someone had died. I asked him what was wrong and he sneered and tossed a metal magazine at me and exclaimed, 'They look like pansies!' The Metallica By Request Tour was a concert tour by American heavy metal band Metallica in. The Lightning'; 'The Unforgiven'; 'Lords of Summer'; 'Wherever I May Roam'; 'Sad But True'; 'Fade to Black'; '. Jump up ^ Jump. So I grabbed my iPod and hit shuffle and Metallica's 'Fade to Black' came on. Always seems to happen a torrent of thoughts and reflections came rushing out. I looked down at the full color photo spread in the mag (Circus or Hit Parader) and there was Motley Crue in pink, white and black outfits and make-up that made them look like skinny bikers in drag. It was a bit shocking to see. My initial thought was that it was some kind of gag. I tried to reassure Rob that it had to be a joke and he looked desperate enough to believe that since Motley Crue was his absolute favorite band. I was proven wrong a short time later when the video for 'Smoking in the Boys Room' came out and they had those silly drag queen outfits on. Music isn't all about image, so I told Rob to hang tight. Surely Motley Crue wouldn't change their music drastically on their new album. Sure, 'Boys Room' was a far cry from 'Looks That Kill,' but it still kinda rocked. In a song to try-and-win-your-girlfriend-over-to-a-band-you-like kind of way. Soon the other shoe dropped when Theater of Pain came out. Poor Rob was devastated. Not only had the band gone with a pansy image, but the music pretty much matched the look. Mick may have tried, in vain, to add some blues licks here and there to at least give it some rock feel, but it was the sound of a band selling out in a huge way. Then the ultimate insult to Rob's past devotion came and it was the straw that broke the camel's back for him. He was thru with the Crue! That insult was the second single from the album and the video that accompanied it, 'Home Sweet Home'. The pink and white was back, but with a ballad complete with Vince running around in assless pants with a pink bandana covering up only enough to make the video safe for viewing on MTV. And did MTV ever play it. It was on ad nausem and helped take Motley Crue from being a popular band in the metal scene to a mainstream pop band. Fade To Black Metallica DownloadThey had gone from the power chords of 'Shout at the Devil' to Tommy playing a piano on 'Home Sweet Home.' A short time later I remember watching an interview with Vince where he claimed they were always more glam then metal, because metal was too punk. He still hasn't gained back my respect. The success of Motley's sellout was a large mark on the wall of what was soon to happen to metal. It was in the midst of a seismic shift that would send the genre off into two totally different directions. Pretty soon the heavy weights of the metal mainstream at the time were going soft in sound and dressing like drag queens. Even Ozzy got into the glammed up image with the release of The Ultimate Sin in early 1996. It was complete with a MTV friendly video for the radio friendly song 'Shot in the Dark,' which gave us the Prince of Darkness decked out in sequins with a Tammy Faye Bakker perm and makeup. Even Judas Priest was pulled down this dark path. For their album Turbo, they replaced most of the guitars with guitar synthesizers, and ended up sounding like a little heavier edged Duran Duran. Rob Halford's mullet from the period is still pretty comical. Then Poison appeared on the scene and it was all over. Metal had gone pop in a big way. Torrent Fade To Black Metallica Tribute BandFade to BlackWhen I started back to school the next fall, Rob was over the Crue sell out. A new band had caught his attention over the summer. In fact, the band had caught the attention of a lot of the older metalheads in our town, which is where Rob heard about them. It was band of thrashy upstarts from San Francisco that didn't give a damn about image or dressing up and played a bit faster and a bit heavier then the metal we were used to at the time. The heaviness of the music made 'Shout at the Devil' sound like 'Home Sweet Home' in comparison. The band even refused to make a video(unheard of in 1985). The band was Metallica and once their sophomore album Ride the Lightning was re-released on Elektra, they moved out of the deep metal underground (where those of us in jr. High had yet to travel) and they began slowly getting exposure among a wider metal audience. Ride The Lightning was new to us, but it wasn't a new album.
