[kj] Addition to the cover version library

[Leigh Newton]

Yo, Alex, you got poop in your ears? That track sounds
like total 'Tallica, dude! heheh. no really, it does.
which, i'll admit, hasn't been a particularily
desireable thing since about 1988, but still, back
then, when they did their studio version (back when
they had about a shred of innovation left), it was a
pretty cool move. the bottom line though: metallica
suck, lars is a pitiful drummer, the drum sound on
Justice is unforgivably bad and St. Anger is just an
all-around sad attempt, and ride the lightning and
master of puppets will always be awesome albums.
