Correct and TRUE METAL to me consists of decent drums - those which dont resemble biscuit tins - and also includes solo's, even better if they're duelling harmonies, which Tallica lacked in their recent album(solo's, not duelling harmonies). Like you said, the definition varies to everyone. Just because they're only on their 2nd album (assuming you mean 54) doesn't mean they can't be - as i put it; "TRUE METAL", they've been around a fair lengthy time and have seen changes in the industry as have Tallica, I'm just praising 54 for sticking with their roots, which is what Lakis was stating.
