Metallica put out a new song. New album out in November.
 

It doesn't sound bad?

Awesome.

Death Magnetic was superb

DM was okay for what it was but the production was ****ing terrible. Too much compression and clipping.

Thank god there were a couple of remixes put out using the stems from the guitar hero game that weren't overcompressed to shit.

Can't wait.

Hope to see them if they come to the Sprint Center again.

Sounds good, sounds like a direct sequel to Death Magnetic which is good, half the tracks will be memorable, half will be meh, its the natural progression of music nowadays.

I saw them back in 2008 at the sprint center with Down and The Sword. The Sword was the usual meh 70's rock worship, Down ****ing killed, and Metallica was Metallica.

Down actually out performed Metallica a little bit in my opinion as Phil was still in decent touring shape those days and is an amazing frontman. I hear he fell apart big time in recent years though.

I was at that show too. My parents actually took me as my birthday gift.

:hmmm:

At this stage of their careers-it would be nice to see them break some new ground. They seem intent on being thrash kings while sacrificing all lyric and melodic perfection.

2 record set of this seems like overkill- but they have enough die hard fans-it will probably go Gold. Then they can make 100 million on the road playing their good songs while throwing these in so fans can take piss breaks.

Lars has to be the most one-dimensional drummer of all time. Nice solo by Kirk-it would nice to see him spread his wings more and show what a great guitar player he really is.

The band hasn't been relevant in decades, but I'll still illegally download the album out of principle.


friends don't let friends get friends haircuts

:facepalm:

Their tours routinely earn more than $200 million per year and they sell out stadiums all over the world.

Heh.

My kind of Metallica fan. :clap:

David Hasselhoff is huge in Germany.

You argue they aren't relevant anymore yet you still need to obtain the music somehow?


:facepalm:

You want people to pay attention to your threads, but you post such inane garbage that people would rather force feed homeless dudes bath salts until they go berserk and chew their faces off just so they won't ever be able to accidentally see any more of your comments?


:facepalm:


No, idiot, my point was that I would steal their shitty music just to stick it to them out of spite.

I think they stole lyrics from Beelzeboss AKA the Devil in Tenacious D Pick of Destiny

~Yes you are ****ed shit out of luck~

If Lars was a woman, his picture would be in the dictionary beside the word "spinny".

Don't care

Metallica is still pretty sweet. James looks like a bad ass older.

I kinda moved away from them after St. Anger. I liked the album ok but the drums were so over-bearing that it basically shit all over everything else.
There were a couple good tunes on that album, though. Frantic still holds up.

Anywho, this sounds like it might be fairly good. I'll give a good listen upon release and make a decision after a few songs regarding purchase.

They're still my favorite, (metal wise).

LMAO
Nice
Whatever you do, don't cut your hair. People might stop ordering grande meals dude.

LOGIC!

Hate to be that guy but after And Justice For All I've hated everything they have out put after

Nice Mike Inez reference

Nothing like 60 year olds putting out new thrash metal album. Amirite?

I wondered why they re-issued some of the early stuff on vinyl and limited edition vinyl/live/CD and stuff.

He was great in that Wendy's commercial.

Love me some old Metallica. I personally thought death magnet sucked ass. I'll give the new album a go but i'm not expecting much

They've sucked since the late 80's. Every album since Justice has been pure garbage.

Oh brother...you're that guy huh?
I'm the music director of Rock radio station, and when we do research we test songs based on genre...grunge, hair, industrial, millennium, 70s-80s and then the category of Metallica. No other band has a their own "category". They have been on of the most relevant rock artist last couple of decades. In other words quite the opposite of what you're saying.

And btw, it's been sport to hate on Metallica "bc their new stuff sucks" since Ride The Lightning came out.

And need a good financial manager. The Orion fest and that awful movie they made lost them a shit-ton of money to the point where stories were coming out that they were in bad financial shape and may have played Lollapalooza a couple of years ago because they badly needed a paycheck.

With that said, I am not a huge fan of much of their newer stuff but hope they do the US festival rounds next year and hit up either Rock on the Range or Chicago Open Air. I still love hearing their live sets. They were my first concert on October 29, 1991 in lovely and picturesque Peoria, IL. It was the very first show on the mammoth Black Album tour.

I hate to be the one to break it to you all, but...

I actually liked the movie thing they did. :Shrug: Especially the end when the jammed out to Orion. I guess I'm in the minority. Lol.

Last Caress/Green Hell

Metallica

I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead

Well I got something to say
I raped your mother today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as she spread

Sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

Go, sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress

Well, I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead

Sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death
One last caress

One last caress, sweet death
One last caress, sweet death

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I've liked pretty much everything they've made with the exception of St. Anger. I just couldn't get into that album AT ALL. Not that it was horrible IMO, I just wasn't as jacked as I normally was after a Metallica release.

The one thing I wish they would get back to a little bit is the over driven guitar sounds. They switched it up around St. Anger I believe, and I've never really warmed up to it.

Whatever way the snare on St. Anger was recorded/mixed/played etc.....was horrible. I"m not a drummer so I'm not sure what gave it that particular sound, but it sounded like shit. like a tinney sound instead a blast of the snare.

I give them credit for playing pretty damn good music for so long. Hell, i grew tired of playing thrash metal on my guitar after about 5 years, and got more into blues and acoustic type stuff. I can't imagine playing thrash for 35+ years. I like the diversity of their catalog of music, personally. They still have more talent in their pinky fingers than alot of bands can ever hope to have in my opinion.

Leaked. I'm skipping around and it appears to pretty much cover all ground in Metallica's career, from Kill Em All to the Load eras to modern.

Listen to this though. Found it on the Metallica subreddit. Meh sound quality but it's easily Metallica's best thrashy song since their heyday. I haven't heard James spit fire like that maybe ever. Amazing tune.

They could have hired Colonel Les Claypool to be basis but they were afraid he would show them up. That would have been ground breaking evolution with alternative rock & heavy metal mesh up. I think it would have been cool. Metallica auditioned Les Claypool but they said he was too good for the band.

First....I'm not sure how Claypool could be basis. Maybe a bassist, but I'll bow to you on the basis.

Second, the band never said he was too good for the band. The auditioned him with lots of others and picked the one they felt fit best...He didn't fit. For what Metallica is, Trujillo was beyond better. Claypool didn't fit, and if anyone who knows the South Park theme song thinks that it fits Metallica, then you clearly have no clue.

They auditioned Claypool in 1986 after Cliff died. Would have been interesting but I can see Hetfield/Ulrich not going there because they were both control freaks during that peroid and Claypool didn't fit in with that

They made the right choice with Trujillo but they also auditioned Pepper Keenan during that time as well. That would have been ****ing sweet.

They'd indicated LC was too good for what they were trying to do - youtube it. ha! Primus>Metallica IMO

The **** they didn't.

when you're busy being a 'smarty' - at least cover you claims.

& by the way Les rips Master of Puppets guitar opening (just as fast) on bass. That should tell any musician what you/they'd have in Les.

I'm a die-hard Metallica fan & for guys that are in their 50's, I think it's good. It seems like they're having fun again and that's cool.

I've learned people will rip on them no matter what. It's my biggest gripe with metalheads, but oh well.

Whoa, Spit out the Bone is pretty damn good.

I thought the new one sounded good.

I met them right at the time Black came out.

..not interested anymore.

Yeah absolutely. So far I'm a fan of 3 of the 4 new ones. Atlas Rise! didn't tickle my fancy so much.

I've only heard OP track Pushead, but it's nice.

Were they rude to you?

I'm 55 so I'll love it right?
