I can only imagine how the people who were around for Cliff feel.

      Well, I'm old enough to have seen Metallica with all three bass players, and I have to say: Every single one of them completed and completes Metallica in their own way, and that's what matters.
      Cliff, Jason and Rob each are excellent bass players in their own right, deserve respect for doing their job well and thus doing their part in making Metallica what it is. And both Jason and Rob are to be commended for developing and bringing in their own respective playing styles and personalities instead of going the easy way by just trying to be ersatz Cliffs.
      _In the end, Metallica wouldn't be Metallica if any of the three lads wouldn't have been there._

      He did his Newsted solo project a few years back, but I don't think it was successful enough for him to warrant continuing it. More people should have bought the album and saw them live and he would probably be recording and touring right now instead of doing art exhibits.

    I hate modern art and especially modern paintings (a red square, what the fuck, yes a red square is somehow art).
    But Jason has actually created some great pieces, his paintings actually have some real meaning to them, which I suppose is what art should be, it should have meaning, and visually his paintings look good too.
    So he has been in the modern art business for what (like 5 mins) and he is already better than the majority.

    @tims7727 7 лет назад +2

    I think each bass player at the time was the right fit for Metallica and who's to say if Cliff hadn't passed away that he'd still be with them to this day. Cliff brought the melody and harmonies into the band that they didn't have and helped paved the way for some of their songs in the latter years. Jason is a well rounded bass player who wasn't given the opportunity within Metallica to venture out a little much like Rob was given with his project Jaco. I think Jason would still be with them had they given him the opportunity to broaden his ability. It would be interesting to see if he could come back and do an album with them. He had such a dynamic stage presence and great vocals, and with rob you have the great stage presence as he moves about a lot, but the backing vocals feel forced. All in all though this band is still pushing on and the last album really bridged the gap from Kill Em All to Death Magnetic. They sound great, they're still fast and they still seem to enjoy what they do and although at a pretty penny they still try to give the fans everything they can. They're not gonna make everyone happy, but who does nowadays. Great artwork Jason, look forward to more.

    Jason has always been my favorite Metallica member (I always saw him like "one of us", the fan becoming part of the band), but this is pretty bad. I never liked artists like Pollock, Basquiat or Miró (three really different artists tho). When you have to explain what the work is about or how you did it so people say "oh, that's interesting", then it's just bad. There are some good techniques in his art, but nothing that I would consider a good work itself.
    What I like from my favorite artists (Goya, Velázquez, Dalí, Magritte, Klimt, Mucha…) is that their work is absolutely gorgeous just to look at, it's easy that you like any of their pieces because they look amazing. But then you start reading about their techniques or the meaning of what they painted and everything is even better. I remember the first time I saw 'The lovers' from Magritte, I liked it because he painted something beautiful like a kiss and turned it into something really dark and suffocating. And then, in art school I learned what was the meaning of the blankets over the faces of the lovers and I liked it even more. That's what I think good art is about. Making you liking something because how it looks and then making you loving it when you know the meaning of the work.

    How I wish they had kept him, or he had stayed, to argue with Lars and James, and make better music.

    Ive never had much of an opinion of newsted, neither hated or rated him, but going through his art and fact or fiction interview, ive got a new respect for him, didnt know about fucking his shoulders up or his art. Ive been going through ops over last 10 yrs and also turned to art,it helps. Good on ya newsted!!

    I love Jason but those paintings are pure non sense lol. But of course the selling factor is his popularity nothing else.

    At least it looks like art. I was in a Art museum weeks ago and there was shit in there that didn't belong in a museum.
