New Metallica

Well, What have you heard and what do you think?
I've heard: Cyanide, The day that never comes, My Apocolypse, the judas kiss, All Nightmare Long "FREAK'N Awesome", and Broken, Beat, and Scarred.
I think everything I have heard Rocks!
I can't wait till Dec. 20th in Oakland!

are you seriouse? ever since they cut their hair its never been more mainstream and commercialized, Metallica 1988= hardest fastest thrash metal band around, Metallica 2008= hard rock if you can even still call it that.

Wow, a hater? Have you even heard the new stuff?

yeah weren't the first three they had on the radio covers? and it doesn't even remotely come close to how they used to and should still sound.

Well, now I have the entire album, TY to you!!! you know who you are!!! ty, TY, TY!

I have listened to the entire thing now, 3 times. Didn't goto bed till 4am! LoL I would have to say........I LOVE IT! they are back, no more St. Anger BS! I think the new sound F'n awesome! It's is heavyly influenced by the 1st 2 albulms, with a sprinkle of some of the new sounds thrown around "but not to much!". I cannot wait till the tour, this new music will kick ass live!!!!

As some can see, I have Cliff Burton as picture with my posts so I'm fan of Metallica in the first place. But only the old Metallica, it was great back then with Cliff Burton and Dave Mustaine (not everyone likes Mustaine but compare his solos with Hammett's solos!).
I did listen to their new album, nonetheless I shan't buy it. I don't want to support Metallica anymore after the Black Album (not it's official title, I know) maybe it's just because they got back to more trashing but they couldn't make it no more and now are trying to step back to lighter music but that's nothing anymore too!

I wrote this straight out of my mind, so maybe people can't read it, sorry for that. Sorry too for the new Metallica fans, I don't hate it, though, it's just that I don't like their comebacks.

ive heard the new metallica, it sucks...sounds just like their last 3 albums which also sucked....i agree with josti...the black album was the last good album they made...cliff burton was the man....i grew up in the same town as him...when i was a kid my friends older brothers used to play underground metallica tapes that they would buy at school....this was around 1983-84 or so.......

the new record is BIG TIME!









edit: well, its Death Magnetic actually..

Is the new album as good as their old shit from the late 80s/early to mid 90s?

no....not at all.........

Well, I just printed my Tix for Dec. 20 in Oakland, cannot wait! Friday in Oaksterdam, Sat @ Metallica concert, and Sun. @ the Raider game, what a FREAK'N weekend! Can't wait.

If I heard the album without knowing all the other Metallica albums, I would say it was decent.

But knowing all the albums, this doesnt come close to the good ones. Not as bad as St. Anger but its no Black, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets..

I like some of the riffs in the new album, but when the lyrics begin I lose interest. The only song on the album that I kinda like in it's entirety is "The Day That Never Comes." It's nowhere near as good as 80's Metallica, but who was really expecting it to be. It's better than St Anger, Load, and Reload...but that's not saying much.

I agree entirely,
To those who keep reverting to the Stock quote of " They used to be so much better before", you were never a fan!
Enjoy the Concert dude!

Yep, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Thank you, I have my tix, and cannot wait to hear "All Nightmare Long" LIVE!

after hearing the new album, it does not compare to anything they did in the 80s, or even the 90s.

i only digg a couple of songs... but thats okay, i've got all of their songs and I can just listen to the older shit, as it never gets too old to enjoy every day.

They need to knock off this crap and go back to the way the first 4 albums sounded..
