My opinion, which is worth just as much as yours or anyone else's but is not more or less correct, is that Metallica has not released a good album since the black album. (And Matter, I am not whining about it. I don't like their new stuff, I won't buy it anymore. I don't deny the incredible contribution that they made in the 80's, but it doesn't mean I have to like what they do now).
Galvatron, as for your other point...
It was you that said that people shouldn't comment on Lars without knowing him. You only know people here from their posts. We only know Lars from hundreds of interviews, and nearly two decades of following his career. We have a lot more to go on than you do.
