ok.. it was always METALLICA(3beast)+JASON(1monst­er)

but the truth is METALLICA were at there best when jason was in the band.. i still don't understand why they didn't accept jason .. and why they went and pushed him beyond limits.. esp james.. screwed him for no reason.. and always blamed him, though it was not his fault.. lars and james you suck.. look at your faces in mirror.. if jason was still in the band.. we wouldn't have seen the rise of pop or bla bla in music industry

metal rulzz \m/
