Metallica, Even the Black album owns most of the stuff by AC/DC. Metallica also puts on a better show because they got the $ to make it cool and they have a good energy.

That is a tough question because while both of them are great bands the two also have some flaws. Metallica's CDs post Black Album are lame and AC/DC is too repetitive, but I will go with Metallica just because Ride the Lightning is too awesome.

Metallica, by far. At the very least, they can still put out a decent album. ACDC, on the other hand, still shovels out the same boring, repetitive garbage.

Metallica of course... Seen both live and AC DC puts a fun, energetic concert on the same level of Metallica but their music is too repetitive and boring.

AC/DC. I just love all of their music, while I only like a couple songs from Metallica (RTL being the only album I like).

It's interesting - I have to be in the mood to listen to them to listen to either. AC/DC have a very samey sound, you listen to one song and you've heard the album so to speak, but Metallica (with exception to RTL which had Mustaine's help) have horrible sound quality on the drums. The snare drum sounds a lot louder than any of the other instruments and has this almost empty tin-like sound to it. I dunno, I'm just picky.

I have never seen either in concert and never will see Metallica because they suck now. And Justice For All.... was the last album they released that was worth buying. I bought the Black Album and couldn't believe what I was hearing when I first heard it. I tried to like it, I really did, but after a week of torture from forcing myself to listen to it. I finally tossed that P.O.S. in the trash and haven't bought another Metallica album since. If you would have asked me this 20 years ago I would have said Metallica no contest. Now I have to vote AC.DC and laugh at the thought of Metallica even being compared to AC/DC. This is a no contest win for AC/DC. Metallica sold out long ago and are a bunch of panzies now.

Metallica has made about five good songs. AC/DC has made about one song. Metallica seems to be winning.

Metallica. James is a better frontman. Music is more enjoyable and complex. Kirk>Angus. Better albums/songs.Doesn't sell a album exclusively through WalMart. Bigger range of genre mixes. The list goes on and on........

:shock: they combined Back in Black, Hells Bells, T.N.T., Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, Whole Lotta Rosie, Thunderstruck, Highway to Hell, Sin City, For Those About To Rock, Shoot To Thrill, You SHook Me All Night Long, Money Talks, The Razor's Edge, If You Want Blood, Who Made Who, Heatseeker, and more into one song.

When did that happen? :o

Metallica. They are the greatest band to ever grace the earth in my opinion. They are also the most influential. Where as AC/DC are the most overrated band in existence.

Sorry but thats pretty much what they are:P Ultra repetive songs that sound almot exactly alike: Check Ridiculously simple riffs and drumming: Check Awful vocals: IMO check Mediocre lyrics: Check I would take AC/DC over Nickelback if forced to listen to one, but neither is good IMO.:P

They're not that bad. Not every metal band has to make sweepingly different sounds and added complexity. There is room in rock for more digestible music.

Yeah, AC/DC are a very simple rock band, you are right about that. But unlike Nickelback, AC/DC play some actual "naughty" rock n' roll that rocks imo. If all you listen to are "complex" bands with technical riffs, more likely you won't tolerate AC/DC.

First...AC/DC are not metal:P And no, not every band has to make massive changes in songs, but when a band use the same riffs over and over and over and over...
Yeah, AC/DC are a very simple rock band, you are right about that. But unlike Nickelback, AC/DC play some actual "naughty" rock n' roll that rocks imo. If all you listen to are "complex" bands with technical riffs, more likely you won't tolerate AC/DC.Wolf-Man2006
Its not the lack of techniacal riffs that turns me off of them (Although I LOVE technical riffs, there are good bands that can make simple work) the fact that they seem un-able to make any songs that don't sound exactly the same as all their other songs however...that is a turn off...
