    I thought this was a bad idea when it was announced. Looks like the pursuit of MONEY drove everyone's thinking on this. It doesn't even matter whose idea it was - every involved party still fucked up. Observe:
    Scenario 1: Whiskey manufacturer says "Let's put out feelers to a band with a recovering alcoholic to see if they'll sponsor our product." The band says "Sure, what could go wrong? El oh el."
    Scenario 2: Hetfield says "Guys, I got it! Let's go into the whiskey business, hur dur." No one in the band puts their foot down and says no. The whiskey manufacturer says "seems legit."
    Scenario 3: Kirk, Lars or Rob says "Hur dur, let's sell alcohol. James? What about him? This will create a new revenue stream!". Again, the whiskey manufacturer says "seems legit."
    MONEY. The only motivator. Fuck James' health.

      Right on. You are 100% correct with all of those points. I never thought I would see the day as Metallica, being a corporate sellout if they sold any alcohol, it should be beer. That was James drink of choice along with the rest of the band members. Not bourbon. And let me guess because Metallica put their stamp on it they’re probably charging $100 a bottle for it.

    As much as I enjoy a good whisky and as much as I love Metallica, I feel a bit uneasy about a recovering alcoholic - who has many times stressed his connection with those of his fans who are also struggling on the path of sobriety - putting out his own whisky brand and even taking part in the promo clip. But maybe I'm just too sensitive. Cheers.

      I agree with you although James I think does drink still. Of course not at the rate he was drinking when he wasn't sober. But more like the weekends and maybe a nice glass of whiskey or a bourbon or whatever. He isn't going to guzzle beer cans and this isn't what the ad was promoting either. It's ok to drink.

    • @dsl32
      @dsl32 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      To me the way I see it is they taking part in a business advanture. I like to think James can control his addiction. Gene Simmons is a good example he never smoked weed but now he wants to start a weed business. To me it is not hypocritical it is just business. Metallica please take my money I will but this product

      I totally get where you’re coming from. Its an odd contradiction for sure.
