I actually don't hate the new Metallica album. What a shocking development.

I haven't heard it yet, but I'm guessing anything would be better than St. Anger. ;)

It's getting great reviews. I really like it too.

I read it was more like their old stuff. Is that true?

I'm going to go find a free download of it, just to piss them off!

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

That's what I did! Let me know if you don't find it. ;)

Yeah, more like the classic stuff than anything they've done in a looooooong time. It's still no Master of Puppets, but it DOES sound like a pretty good metal band, which is a turn I thought they'd never take again.

Indeed! I never could listen to more than about a second and a half of that album before convulsing with laughter over the snare sound.

You metalhead, you! :D

Yeah, I found it at Mininova, and the many seeders means I'll have it in a few minutes.

The truth is, I never liked Metallica much. I own none of their albums and probably wouldn't think to buy any.

They were pretty much my favorite band in high school, but I walked out of one of their shows in '92 or so and have hated everything they've done since.

That snare made me cringe more than laugh. It sounded like a damn rain gutter.

I hate it enough for both of us.

Didn't you know all of metallica died when the bus fell over on the that one guy who wasn't a total douche nozzle?

Well, yeah. Cliff was and is my favorite bass player. This doesn't touch anything they did with him, and nothing they do from here on out ever will, but I'm just saying it's better than the shit on the Black Album and everything since.
