Actually that reviewer HAS been reviewing bands for years and has a degree in Journalism. Every site has to start somewhere and just because it is only recently that we decided to take it online, doesn't mean that the reviews mean nothing. If you were a little more into music press you'd realise that Metallica are still featured in many of the top publications, still defending St Anger. Therefore it is still a current issue, even more so as they are touring again this year in support of it, and only playing TWO songs in each set from it, clearly showing that even they know the material is not up to par with their earlier songs.
What is it about metal fans that there is always someone who has to moan about some ridiculous fact.
