Metallica is a classic example of what happens when a man with a burning desire to prove himself, eventually proves himself, and then doesn't know what to do after that.

Hetfield was working up to that point with their 80's albums, and then fully accomplished it with The Black Album. He was trying to overcome his religious upbringing, and when finally he did it, he was like "what now? I haven't got that dragon to slay anymore".

So their subsequent albums were always going to be shit, because he lost his hunger and his focus.
