I expect something better than last 3 albums and something worse than
first 5 albums.I think after the worst album I've ever heard,St.
Anger,they will return to form with this.But it will not be easy.maybe
"Death Magnetic" will be moderate,and than there will be a big
return-some years later.

Well, I've kinda heard some stuff on youtube on the new album. Wow, just as bland as expected. Obviously not as bad as St Anger (but that's no achievement really  ) but meh, wouldn't buy the album. Unless they throw in a free wah-wah pedal

Apparently a new song is online now. But there is no way in Hell I am pausing Type O Negative to listen to it.

I'm not pausing Beirut for it, either.

Well I'm still upset about St. Anger. I only bought it cause they promoted they were returning to their metal roots ... Just felt duped, can't really forgive them for that. I'm sure I'll hear enough of it without seeking it out.

Let me make a prediction: This entire process around Death Magnetic is eventually going to result in Dave Mustaine laughing his ass off.

Hopefully better than St. Anger (which was a pretty good album, just crappy sounding drums).
"Death is not the end" is Awesome!

I actually think St. Anger is a very good album. Load and ReLoad as well are good releases in my book. I'll surely buy their new album although my expectations aren't skyhigh. I hope it will be good though, if not excellent. I'll look out for some samples soon

I agree. I don't know why, but I feel the same.

Jeez, have you guys registerd the hype surrounding this release? It actually makes me sick! These guys are nothing but money grabbing b*****ds who somehow seem to be able to trick everyone into believing that they've got some credibility left. HTF do they do it? Is everyone THAT thick?
Before seeing the hype I was trying to be open-minded, but those a..holes have shut the lid on that!

^Partly why Metallica will never receive another cent from me.
I After buying their first 4 albums, I felt that was enough.

This discussion just made me re-listen to St.Anger, and I actually got through three tracks before giving up.
What IS that instrument that Lars Ulrich is playing? Sure as hell not a drum kit, I'm pretty certain I hear trinidad steel drums instead.

I think St. Anger would have been better had they used a mellotron.

My expectations are high. I liked St. Anger very much, as well as Load and ReLoad. It was an unique, innovative album, not in terms of composition, but on unique production (no matter you like it or not, you have to admit it is unique). They had some rocking good riffs, but they lacked solos. It was a decent 3 star album, though. Not a disaster at all, as many people say.
Anyway, as a die hard fan who has their whole discography, I hope they come back to their roots with Death Magnetic. The repercutions on what can be heard from now are high.
Here you got one of their new songs, The Day That Never Comes:
Can't wait for the new album! |

I took a listen to that song. I don't know about you, but it seems to me like a poser band trying to be Metallica, and consciously trying to make a song with the same structure as "One" (it even has the qucik triplet 16th notes on the bass drum).
If Death Magnetic sounds like Metallica trying to be Metallica, then I'm not so sure I'm interested.
