So I was checking Met's website and the release of their new album has been announced for September 12. This seems like a promising CD from samples I have heard (true samples).

Here's the songlist (in CD order):

That Was Just Your Life
The End Of The Line
Broken, Beat & Scarred
The Day That Never Comes
All Nightmare Long
Cyanide
The Unforgiven III
The Judas Kiss
Suicide & Redemption
My Apocalypse

Unforgiven III (sounds awesome, lol)

Metallica has been sucking cock since the Load album. They lost it twelve years ago. Their music has become simple and generic. The talent that was on display for the world to see from Kill em ALL to the Black album simply faded away and now they are a bunch of has beens trying to reclaim past glory.

Even though Load and ReLoad were not the heaviest, I still think they were good albums. I don't like St. Anger much. I do somewhat agree that their career has been going down (somewhat) after the black album but they wanted to try different things so you gotta respect that.

Resepect that? They were the Gods of metal. They became so full of themselves that they forgot about their fans. I never listened to St. Anger because I heard St. Anger and almost puked.

i believe he meant he never gave the album a listen, after listening to the song for all of 5 seconds, what it took me at least. For people who grew up on metallica it is different then people like us who are 20. We didn't grow up on them like they were in the 80's, now they are faggots, put on a good live show, but are faggots.

Now, I am not a Metallica fanboy but I don't think they fully became full of themselves, except maybe for Lars

If you're basing this on what happened with the Napster ordeal, you can't blame them too much on what they did. Plus, I believe St. Anger sucked because they rushed it and were stupid on thinking that it would sound like the old days. I dunno. This is just my opinion, not basing it on facts.

The Napster situation I completely understand. I am fully aware of copyright laws. I just think Metallica tried to get to cute in their music. James himself even stated right after Load that he had no idea what the songs meant. This was a huge departure from earlier albums when the songs did have meaning.

I will give the new album a shot but I am not counting on being dazzled.

Whatever my opinion is regarding the napster situation, I still find those videos funny

Yeah, even though I do download songs illegally, I still respect the copyright laws (in theory). I don't have the money to buy all music I have, I buy only cd's which I like alot.

I do miss the concept of old Metallica songs where lyrics sounded intelligent and music was so dynamic (this includes Load and Reload which I still find were good albums even though the sound was not the same).

I was so excited to hear St Anger but so dissapointed when I heard it. One example is that they said they were making songs long like before but all they did is create a 2 minute song (figuratively speaking) and repeated it 4 times making it 8 minutes. Not that songs need to be long, but they didn't do it right.

I find Megadeth to be kicking ass right now compared to Metallica, their (deth) 2 most recent albums kick ass and still sound heavy.

Yea the new album sounds repetitive to me, Its just different variations of Fade to black in my opinion. Wish they went back to their roots like on Ride the Lightening.

Anything past the black album can get on its knees and suck me off.

That was a great album. But I like the new album to, but I do find its a little repetitive. To much snare drum to. But its a huge improvement from St. anger.

Metallica tried to stay with the times, with bans like Alice in Chains and others during the 90's, then changed again with "nu-metal", And immediately isolated fans. I had a friend who wanted me to go with him to see Metallica play, and once for Megadeth. They can play some of there old stuff well. But it's like going to a 6 years olds birthday party. You see a bunch of people that like it, but your still just sitting there. Megadeth was one of the worst bands live as far as sound quality. Dave Mustaine rants too much for me to enjoy his music. Metallica was on stage, and clearly doesn't want to be there for the music. It's all about the money.

guit_ar_tist · « **Reply #18 on:** October 20, 2009, 03:23:36 PM »

I can comment for Megadeth since I never seen them live, but from seeing live videos of Metallica (and actually going to see them next week in Toronto) it does seem like they are doing it for the money, it seems like they care, and play sloppy, especially Kirk. I can barely listen to his live playing nowadays.

gin · « **Reply #19 on:** October 21, 2009, 11:59:59 AM »

I saw them back when they toured with Korn (garage in my opinion). And I remember being able to play "Ride the Lightning" album by heart on guitar. And Kirk would like lose his pick (could be from the fire), but he wouldn't even do the standard riffs, he would play the single note, and not use all his fingers.

Maybe it sounds weird, but thats what I do when I watch bands play. I watch the guitarists hands intensely.

The bassist they have now is pretty weird too. He's quit bands to work with other bands, he played with Ozzy and dropped him to work with Metallica. I think his name is Robert Trujillo. Immediately afterwards Ozzy had Jason Newstead up there, who is amazing at bass.

Thankfully there's bands like Down, Darkest Hour, and Trivium, that can play better and keep metal going.

guit_ar_tist · « **Reply #20 on:** October 21, 2009, 01:04:23 PM »

For me, I can remember being able to play the whole Kill Em All CD by heart.

I watch guitarists a lot too since I'm one, so I'm always looking at their technique, or sometimes lack thereof.

Yeah, I don't like the new bassist too. Doesn't fit the band.

And yeah, metal will never die, muhahahaha.
