Metallica vs. Motley Crue  

Personally, I think Metallica is better, but not for any of the reasons listed above. I just like their music. Their instrumental music is awesome and they're very talented at playing and they've got a good presence. They're lyrics are also really deep (for many songs, but not all) and they've got some awesome lyrics.

I never really liked Motley Crue. Not exactly sure why, but the music just isn't my type.

That's almost like comparing apples and oranges. Each band has their own unique style. Motley Crue was formed in 1981, so they were part of that hair metal/metal glam era. Also, both Metallica and Motley Crue are different types of metal. While Motley Crue can be classified as glam metal, Metallica is classified as heavy, hard rock. They're both very different and on different ends of the metal/hard rock spectrum. I think they both are awesome bands!

They've got different styles, IMO.

Motley Crue I don't think's that good. In the other hand, I've always been a Metallica fan. They not only played metal, they redeveloped it. A totally new lifestyle, new songs - the made some sense -, and a different rhytm.

It's hard to explain, but Metallica RULES!
