[Blitzkrieg]

That is a great review!

[color=#AOEOOA]Some Kind Of Monster & Dirty Window.

Personally I can't see How Unnamed Feeling can be on top.[/color]

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Because it is an awesome song, simple!

 

[phlogiston]

I've listened to it enough that I have an opinion now Shoot Me Again, Frantic, and then...ummm...St Anger, I guess, but I think some of the others are growing on me even more.

 

[Sydo]

D'oh, it seems there's a few tracks that I don't like much at all.
Frantic, St Anger, Dirty Window, Shoot Me Again and Invisible Kid are all cool.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I think Invisible Kid could be brilliant, but the way it is it is just good.

 

[Sydo]

Yeah. It's probably one of the songs that suffers the most from production flaws too. sounds really flat in places.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I think most of the riffing sounds awesome, it is mainly just the song structures and some of the lyrics that stuff things up. And I agree, it is flat in places.

 

[Spiff]

OK, I'm ready to vote:

St Anger
My World
The Unnamed Feeling

 

[Southy]

Its still all awesome IMO

Ifound that review the other night, twas the most open thinking one I have seen

 

[The_Prisoner]

That Blabbermouth review was well written, but for me St.Anger is possibly the worst record they've made, right down there with Load. I didn't even buy Re-Load. But i have given St. Anger a listen. If it wasn't "cool" to be a Metallica fan, this album would be the death of them.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Actually, in my opinion, if it wasn't "cool" amongst metalheads to dislike the newer Metallica, I think this album would be even more popular than it already is. I think alot of people would like it more if they gave it a few listens for what it is, not what Metallica has become.

I don't know about anyone else, but I think the album is great, and has some of the best song writing Metallica have done since MoP. I don't like it because Metallica are 'cool', even if they aren't amongst metalheads. I like it because I think it is good.

I'll agree with that.

 

[Spiff]

I think it's a great album. They've reinvented themselves. There's nothing trendy about it either. It's a perfect blend of the catchiness of their 90s stuff and the heaviness of their 80s stuff.

 

[Southy]

I think if more people had the fucking balls they would admit that they liked it and not worry about what other fuckwit trindites thought of them likeing the album...

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Indeed. I know some people will genuinely not like it and thats fine, but I agree with Southy that there are people that won't give it a chance and wouldn't want to admit to liking it.

 

[Celestial-Todd]

Yep... and that pisses me off no end. I don't mind people not liking something, actually, if they've got valid reasons I reckon it's good cause it can lead to some great discussions.

But when the opinion is "Metallica has sucked for 10 years" what hope is there?

 

[spawn]

Metallica have only sucked since June 5th!

 

[The Amazer]

Metallica have only sucked since 13/13/NEVER SUCKERS!

wow, that was really gay on my behalf!

 

[Celestial-Todd]

Bite me spawn, bite me!
