Just listened to this album TWICE!!! I really wanted to believe it was going to be great, but it isn't. It sounded like NIN with Boy-band drum beats and Axl just wailing incoherently over top of it. Do yourself a favor and get Death Magnetic instead.
What's great about it: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!!!
What's not so great: All the people who will be talking about it until next year.

This album fits right in with the Classic First 4!!!!! I have been a Metallica fan for 24 years, and this is the album we were looking for in 1991. Although I have purchased every album they have ever made, I have been thoroughly disappointed since Load came out in 96. I knew if I could just hold on a little longer I would get the album I had been dreaming of, and THIS IS IT!!!!! To those of us who thought Metallica had completely died with St. Anger, you will NOT be sorry if you purchase Death Magnetic. \M/\M/\M/
What's great about it: The REAL Metallica is BACK!!!!
