JukeboxJim Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 The album sounds like it'll be pretty good. Better than St. Anger anyway, not that that's a big feat. At all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mos6507 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sounds like Metallica have finally decided to be a thrash band again. I've lost interest in them for so long I'm not sure this enough for me to care about them anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMcLov1n Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Death Magnetic is a definite step in the right direction. St. Anger blew monkey balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyedye Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I'm listening to the full version of Death Magnetic right now. You just wait. It is going to blow you away. It is KICK ASS!!! This is the album fans have been waiting for!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mos6507 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Wow, that video had a surprise ending indeed. I originally thought the visuals didn't mesh with the music but I can see what they were getting at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JukeboxJim Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I've heard the album, it's pretty good stuff. I really don't like that music video AT ALL. Just reeks of lame to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanna be drummer Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I might be meeting Metallica . But thats a story for another time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarlaxle 56 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I saw this posted on another forum, had to share. Anyway, the new stuff sucks in my opinion. Just because it sucks slightly less than St. Anger is no reason to heap all sorts of praise on it, it still sucks pretty damn badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new CD, Death Magnetic, does not suck. It's the very opposite of suckage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hand_Of_Omega_91 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 (edited) REALLY impressed with the new stuff after the disappointment that was St Anger. Sounds like they're back on form. Seeing them when they play The O2 in a couple of weeks for the Death Megnetic 'launch party,' no doubt theyll play the whole thing or most of it. CANT WAIT!

tyedye Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I just purchased my tickets to see Metallica in November! woohoo!!! I can not wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Robert Trujillo looks a bit out of his element, but James looks somewhat comfortable. I like the new song, and they will always be one of my favorite bands to see live. I can't wait for them to announce a show here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band's first studio album since 2003 moved 490,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electricmage Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Anyways, Metallica lost their touch years ago. Once success hit them, it was over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rover Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I ask, what real competition, as records released goes, does Metallica have right now ? ? ? They are a Big fish in a small pond. Perhaps this album is worth hearing... I tend to think I might spend my hard-earned dollars on going to see AC/DC, or perhaps even Judas Priest, when they headline later this year, and next year....

JukeboxJim Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I don't know, I've listened to the album several times, and I just can't love it. I don't hate it, but I just can't get on board with the immense fellating this album is getting. Trujillo is awesome, as he always is. James' riffing really is fantastic on this album, but he's never really had a problem with that. Kirk's playing is pretty good, but really his solos just strike me more of trying too hard(Which the album gives me a big vibe of overall). Like they were all "Let's try to make an album our old school fans will dig, so Kirk just go nuts! Screw putting the time in, just make it sound complex like Justice!" All in all, I am glad the solos are back though. James' vocals grate me on some songs, and a few I really like them. My main beef with his singing is some of the melodies he sing in sound annoying. The lyrics throughout the entire album are basically really cheesy. This album is good, not great, and what St. Anger should have been. I also think if this album followed any album other than St. Anger, possibly even Reload, it does not get near the mass love it does. It's a good album following a giant steaming pile of shit.

AMAZONIC Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Well, I have just bought Death Magnetic. I have listened to it a few times already, on loud speakers and I just love it. It's pure and simple METALLICA. I have been a fan since their " Kill 'em All" album (1983) and whatever people say I still think they are one of the greatest heavy metal bands ever.
