Like, Metallica wants to write records with Lou Reed. Metallica fans just want them to rewrite ...Justice.


I side with the fans.

I'm pretty sure they were originally called Metallic until somebody heard James Hetfield saying it-UH.

Granted I stopped being a fan of McTallica [the cheese burger of metal] back in my teens but it comes more down to they just don't have it anymore, their songs for the last four albums have been sheer meh. They live off of their past like any other over blown classic rock band. I thought all the pre load stuff was "good" but once they became mega stats it all seemed to go flat.

Actually this thing with Lou Reed doesn't really surprise me at all, they did a song together on the RRHOF thing [watch the stuff they "attempted" with Ozzy for extreme lolz and facepalms... Really though I would be more then trilled if Lou would take over all singing for McTallica [the cheese burger of metal] cuz jamez makes them sound like a fucking Toby Keith tribute band these days.

I sold my Dirt Transmitter to my friend yesterday. He plays metal/sludge riffs with a 7 string and the Dirt Transmitter sounded so fucking good.
So if ya'll want a pedal for sludgey stuff, check it out.

And who would that be? Apart from crush the button I know none that's really good. And I keep thinking that I might be better off importing the stuff myself.

Sweet, never heard of 8302 before. He carries Iron Ether. That's pretty awesome. Joe's Pedals is cool. If you have his newsletter he'll always let you know the D*A*M stuff he get's before it actually hits the shelves, so people in the list get a head start. I think effekt-boutique are overpricing. There is also guitarplayer.nl, those guys have some cool shit as well, they were the first to carry the Sea Machine fwiw.

On a cool, clear night (typical to Southern California) Warren G travels through his neighborhood, searching for women with whom he might initiate sexual intercourse. He has chosen to engage in this pursuit alone.[5]

Nate Dogg, having just arrived in the east side of Long Beach, seeks Warren. On his way to find Warren, Nate passes a car full of women who are excited to see him. Regardless, he insists to the women that there is no cause for excitement.

Warren makes a left turn at 21st Street and Lewis Ave, in the East Hill/Salt Lake neighborhood[6], where he sees a group of young men enjoying a game of dice together. He parks his car and greets them. He is excited to find people to play with, but to his chagrin, he discovers they intend to relieve him of his material possessions. Once the hopeful robbers reveal their firearms, Warren realizes he is in a less than favorable predicament.

Meanwhile, Nate passes the women, as they are low on his list of priorities. His primary concern is locating Warren. After curtly casting away the strumpets (whose interest in Nate was such that they crashed their automobile), he serendipitously stumbles upon his friend, Warren G, being held up by the young miscreants.

Warren, unaware that Nate is surreptitiously observing the scene unfold, is in disbelief that he is being robbed. The perpetrators have taken jewelry and a Rolex Watch from Warren, who is so incredulous that he asks what else the robbers intend to steal. This is most likely a rhetorical question.

Observing these unfortunate proceedings, Nate realizes that he may have to use his firearm to deliver his friend from harm.

The tension crescendos as the robbers point their guns to Warren's head. Warren senses the gravity of his situation. He cannot believe the events unfolding could happen in his own neighborhood. As he imagines himself making a fantastical escape, he catches a glimpse of his friend, Nate.

Nate has seventeen cartridges (sixteen residing in the pistol's magazine, with a solitary round placed in the chamber and ready to be fired) to expend on the group of robbers. Afterward, he generously shares the credit for neutralizing the situation with Warren, though it is clear that Nate did all of the difficult work. Putting congratulations aside, Nate quickly reminds himself that he has committed multiple homicides to save Warren before letting his friend know that there are females nearby if he wishes to fornicate with them.

Warren recalls that it was the promise of copulation that coaxed him away from his previous activities, and is thankful that Nate knows a way to satisfy these urges. Nate quickly finds the women who earlier crashed their car on Nate's account. He remarks to one that he is fond of her physical appeal. The woman, impressed by Nate's singing ability, asks that he and Warren allow her and her friends to share transportation. Soon, both friends are driving with automobiles full of women to the East Side Motel, presumably to consummate their flirtation in an orgy.

The third verse is more expository, with Warren and Nate explaining their G Funk musical style. Warren displays his bravado by daring anyone to approach the style. There follows a brief discussion of the genre's musicological features, with special care taken to point out that in said milieu the rhythm is not in fact the rhythm, as one might assume, but actually the bass. Similarly the bass serves a purpose closer to that which the treble would in more traditional musical forms. Nate displays his bravado by claiming that individuals with equivalent knowledge could not even attempt to approach his level of lyrical mastery. Nate goes on to note that if any third party smokes as he does, they would find themselves in a state of intoxication almost daily (from Nate's other works, it can be inferred that the substance referenced is marijuana[7]). Nate concludes his delineation of the night by issuing a threat to "busters," suggesting that he and Warren will further "regulate" any potential incidents in the future (presumably by engaging their antagonists with small arms fire).
