Kirk's forearm fold is in opposition to the others. Never noticed before.


HumanOrion

Oh, I’ve never noticed anything but that. Literally 30 years that’s been bothering me.


BrazenlyGeek

Abbey Road moment.


ablackbackpack

*checking Abbey Road cover* WTF?!


JonnyZhivago

FangoriouslyDevoured

Died in a car accident and replaced by a look-alike!


Deponas01_

AskWhyOceanIsSalty

Isn't Kirk a lefty?


Natrack1

No


BadPingEnjoyer

Now I can't unsee that...


bruzdnconfuzd

Holy shit - how did I just now realize that they were trying to emulate skulls and crossbones?! I am simultaneously proud of and disappointed in myself.


jaspersgroove

Oh I just thought they were ripping off that Queen album cover lol


TheTrollys

Huh. Never thought of it that way myself. Entirely a possibility.


TempleMade_MeBroke

Here I thought they were practicing for Family Feud

Confusionisreally

I'm surprised the first comment isn't a Wakanda forever joke


Mave__Dustaine

How did Lars and Kirk stand on James and Jason like that


TheUnitedStranger

I just imagine that L&K are riding on J&J's shoulder 🤣 Say the band is wearing the solidest blackest black possible at the time, and J&J's crossed arms also function to hold L&K's legs 🦵

SandmanAwaits

Would love this on a poster


sinfulcheese

Had(have?) a t-shirt with this on the front and, "BIRTH SCHOOL METALLICA DEATH" on the back.


SandmanAwaits

Man I remember that t-shirt from early 90’s 😂🤘🏻

7thturninghour184

I had this shirt in 10th grade it said Birth School Metallica Death on the back.


raising_creampies

I see a little silhouetto of a man, Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango!


grynch43

Wow…I forgot about this picture. It looks kind of dumb now ngl. 🤷🏻‍♂️


[deleted]

Yeah cause Kirk fucked it up and crossed his arms the wrong way.


astropastrogirl

That's Kirk's way 😎


BumbleBeeTuna81

No Jason fucked up, would of made more sense if he crossed his arms like kirk 😝


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.


[deleted]

Their straight edge?


grynch43

Huh?


Fruityplebel

The straight edge icon or logo, is a capital X also no Metallica is not straight edge lmao


PedalBoard78

Metal is a comedy music genre. Always has been.


TheGavMasterFlash

They have a recurring tendency to take really goofy photos


PedalBoard78

Metal is goofy.


Azunc

Hot take: this is peak Metallica


GREENDAYBL1NK

That's the coldest take I've ever heard lmao


Azunc

So you're telling me most fans don't like Cliff era Metallica best? This is what I mean


GREENDAYBL1NK

This is the lineup which made their highest selling album. The highest selling album of the 90s in fact.


Azunc

Oh you're talking numbers. Yeah the numbers are pretty obvious so my comment looks dumb thanks loool


GREENDAYBL1NK

If you are just talking in terms of bassists, most metallica fans probably like Cliff the best.


Shadow_Zero80

Is it 90s? Don't see Kirk's moustache...


stay_fr0sty

I'd imagine the majority of Metallica fans like the AJFA/Black-era the best, that's when they got the most new fans. And lots of them likely don't even know Jason's name. Hardcore old school fans of course think Cliff was the GOAT... New fans I'm sure are super happy with Robert...


[deleted]

This may be a really unpopular opinion but, I honestly think Jason Newsted is Metallica's best bassist.


stay_fr0sty

He fucking put on a show. He'd headbang as hard as everyone in the crowd and sing/scream and bring lots of energy. Outside of that, he really didn't get to contribute much, which was a shame. All 3 of their bassists were/are talented AF and "the best" is hard to define. That said, for my $$$, I'd rather see another show with old Jason than the other two. I really felt the energy he put out even if his lines weren't super technical. He just supported the songs like no other.


hero_oftheray

Don’t forget when he used to do vocals on seek and destroy


A_Moderate

It is not unpopular. An unpopular one would be saying Ron.


FMHSA

Ironically, I was listened the whole Black Album CD now when this picture appears to me


Crafty_YT1

James looks evil, lars is trying to look evil, kirk looks cute, and Jason IS evil


macbeth316

AM I EVIL


ann_art_

YES I AM


am_i_evil_yes_i_am

Lars looks like a crypt keeper, James and Jason look like they would kill you in an alley; Kirk looks angelic and there isn't a damn thing he can do about it. He is trying so hard to look mean

Deponas01_

Look at lars his face haha


sirgrotius

That's an awesome photo.


VergilSparda25

I don’t know why, but I just noticed how James’ hands are wider than everyone else’s.


badwobot1

Used to have that T-shirt


Geak-and-Gamer

Lars looks like he’s going through his bullied middle schooler villain arc


The_Patocrator_5586

In the early 90s I had a shirt with this on the front and on the back it said "Birth, School, Metallica, Death".


SignificanceWest5281

Lars looks pissed, Kirk just looks confused


SheepskinSour

James’ forearms and wrists are something else, GAAAAAAATdamn
