although St. Anger was a real disappointment, I still hope for a-back-to-the-roots album or something... is there a due time?

 

[derbeder]

hopefully

Heh, it can't be hard to 'top' St. Anger. I think that most likely it will be better than St. Anger, but bad/mediocre nonetheless.

 

[Lothlorien]

i heard one of the new songs live on xm radio, and man it sucked hard. it was about 8 minutes long and it was soooooo fucking boring. i mean, i was thinking positive while hearing it, and it could not keep my attention. it sounded like a longer version of a st. anger song. definetly no roots of old metallica were felt. sorry guys. maybe the other songs will be different.

oh, and james announced that they havent even named the song yet.

Hopefully what I read was true then...that no songs heard as of now (live clips) will be on the album.

Eight minute songs sound promising...but my expectations are not very high for this album.

the song i heard was eight minutes of repetition and poor lyrics. hopefully they will learn from demos like these.

 

[i aint play this]

There is not a single evidence that makes me feel positive about a future Metallica release

The song I heard was about 8 minutes and was from almost 2 years ago, but it wasn't "st anger part 2" really. It was like St Anger if they had some actually fast riffs and actual (extended even!) guitar solos. Basically, it was the album st anger should have been so they could have evolved to something legitimately good again on this album, but hey I'll take the delay My guess is it will be much better than St Anger but still not particularly good.

Fuck me Im sick of seeing threads on every forum entitled:- New Metallica album to be good?

 

[neuroticandroid]

i don't think it'll be another master of puppets or ride the lightning, but i still cross my fingers for another great metallica album (last one i bought was the black album)

 

[hibernal_dream]

I think it will be better than Master of Puppets but not as good as Lightning.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

I don't know how good the new one will be, but I know it will be better than that crap album called St Anger.

 

[Godhead59]

The new songs as Lothlorien heard them, as stated by Robert Trujillo, will not be on the album. And I fail to see how the first new song sounds like a continuation of St. Anger, it has some truly awesome parts in it. The intro was great and the second part of the solo and the guitar bridge part after it were awesome.

 

[nizzon]

Where did you hear it?

 

[Towedwart]

I always hope the best for Metallica. Hopefully it is as good as their older material.

 

[all_sins_undone]

i just don't understand how the same people that are making these terrible songs made the first metallica albums. obviously they had a sense of quality in them, what happened to it? or more likely, what were they smoking during the first albums?
