Are you being sarcastic? Ebert basically told the band to quit playing.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>There's no doubt they're a talented band, but I just don't like their new stuff at all. Black (their first sell-out album, BTW) is my fav, but since then, you're lucky to find a total of 3 or 4 songs from their 3 albums (I'm not counting Garage Days Inc since it was mostly covers) that are good.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I disagree (remember: Puppets is my favorite album though Kill'Em All is just fun). There are usually only 1 or 2 I don't really like on their new albums, if that.</div>
