RIP Marianne Faithfull

As long as I'm learning something, I figure I'm OK - it's a decent day.

I wonder if she'll be buried / cremated with her Mars Bar.

Her outro sounding like a wino hag busking for booze was a warning on the listening post that Metallica had put out another stinker.
We didn't even get two singles from that album.

Re: RIP Marianne Faithfull
The fuck you on about? They put out Fuel, The Memory Remains and Unforgiven II. Fuel and Unforgiven II got 3 part singles for those songs.factchecker wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 12:32 pm Her outro sounding like a wino hag busking for booze was a warning on the listening post that Metallica had put out another stinker.![]()

Ok ok. Fuel got a top 40 peak at 38 on the top 40 singles chart. The Memory Remains got a number 1 BUT (a big butt) on the rock and metal charts.
Still neither Load nor Reload carried nor had the same results as the Black Album keeping Metallica from needing to release a new album until June of 2001.
Did anything carry or keep Load from lasting until 2001? No!
Was Reload full of "heavier than black album but kept off load cuts until reload to redeem it better to the latter?" No!
Not in hindsight. Metallica sucked during this era!
