New Metallica SINGLE is OUT

[Spivonious]

Can't stream audio at work...what album would you say it's most like?

[thebigz]

I thought it was decent. The second half was pretty cool, as has been said, when they were finally rocking out. Can't say I care too much for the vocals, though. Its nice to hear that Lars re-learned what a snare is - although its definitely sounded better, I think its just because of low quality streaming audio that it didn't sound too great.

As a guy who's been slamming them for years, I've gotta say that I was pleasantly surprised. I never liked them as a rock band, and that was an actual metal tune. My hat is off to them for making something that sounds like Metallica rather than trying to chase an audience & figure out what's popular. I hope the rest of the album is more of the same or even a bit more up-tempo. At least maybe it'll help push some of that Nickelback, Puddle of Mudvayne (or is it Muddle of Pudvein?) soundalike shit off the radio for a while.

wh-wh-wh-what!? the best albumn is def. not the black album!! come on now. any of the first three put the black album to shame!! ah i guess it just depends...to each their own but most people that think the black album is the best usually started listening to metallica on that album.

I said the best "SINCE" the black album.

what the hell is that!! the unforgiven again!! i agree with thrust that its the best i heard since the black album. but not as good as the black album and i dont really care for the black album.

Half the song was kind of, err... pointless? The beginning mellow section was good. Kinda reload but good. The rest was pointless with a lame solo. Thanks for posting though.

Meh, some time changes and some really cool riffing and a decent solo, however, James just tries TOO hard to be melodic. Still, the best since the Black Album.

Good grace to put it up? Or the good grace to leave it down?

That'd blow if I just released a single and it was already on Rapidshare/Megaupload the same day..

Semi-looking forward to hearing this though.

Give it a few hours and it will be everywhere.
Local radio station here played it. I like how the local station suddenly refers to itself as a "rock station" when Metallica has a new album on the horizon.

I'm kinda curious, but I hope it's not that "Suicide, I've already died" song..

[khabibissell]

I'm looking forward to their new record. I hope it is good. I loved Metallica up until Load/Reload.

[Ben...]

Ha ha! I'm telling you, it'll be total shite.

Hey I want it to be as good as their old stuff as much as anyone, but we all know it's gonna be shite.

I hate to say it but I must agree. I just don't think it'll be good. If it is, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

[SRD86]

Lighten up Francis!

:ROTF:
nice reference!

[MartinBarre]

Shut the fuck up.

If you don't like it, why the fuck even come into these threads?
