this is great publicity for unfaith, whoever they are. Id milk it for all its worth if I was them (assuming they want to be associated with Metallica).

I can't believe they think they are the only band who can go from E to F. If you could copyright that, all of the chord changes would be spoken for in a month and there would be no more music. I could copyright 12 bar blues and destroy rock and blues forever.
I could go home and play E and F in succession until my fingers fall off and it will not sound anything like Metallica.
What a bunch of self-absorbed jackholes. I used to LOVE their music but now it just makes me sick to my stomach.

Yes - I downloaded a BUTTLOAD of your music Lars - FOR FREE :finger:
