So, anyone acquired it yet? It's actually pretty good, some very strong tracks on it and some huge, huge riffage.
Thoughts?

I've managed to get get a copy of the album and i have to say its a big improvement on St Anger.
I would'nt expect to hear much of it on daytime radio.Most of the tracks are 7/8 mins long.
My internet connection is down at home just at the wrong time. Can't wait to hear this.

I have nt bought a metalica album since they turned around and sued napster and never will. and after watching that documentary on them i now realise they are a bunch of idiots aswell. I have more respect for s club 7 now.
Cool.
Good call
listened to it a good 15-20 times now and i think it's quality. all nightmare long and unforgiven 3 being my favourites. it's not up there with master or ride the lightning but it's very good

Top drawer.
Excellent sound - buzzsaw guitars and Hetfield sounds really strong
DB Cooper is alive !
ffs, are you for real?
Great album, agree unforgiven 3 prob my favourite track.
Its much better than last few, still not their best stuff though.
I've just listened to Master of Puppets and Justice For All back to back. Absolutely immense albums the both of them. Still havent listened to the new one yet. I'll get it off Napster soon.ffs, are you for real?
Great album, agree unforgiven 3 prob my favourite track.
Its much better than last few, still not their best stuff though.Is it me or did the drums on St. Anger sound like banging trash cans?

Finally got to listen to it. An absolute beast of an album, terrific stuff, best since And Justice For All. Best tracks, All Nightmare Long and Cyanide. A big welcome back to guitar solos, more than you can shake a stick at here.

Back to the glory days, one of the most impressive albums this year.

great album,play it loud.
Chamon Mothafcuka......he heeee.
I think "back" is the problem with this album. They have tried to recreate their 80's sound but this offering is nowhere near as good as MOP or RTL.
Up until their "Load" period, there was somewhat of a progression, from album to album, in the Metallica sound (moving towards more bluesy riffs at times). This album definitely draws upon their early sounds and there is very little on it that sounds new.
It is a shame because Metallica where at one time innovators but this album smacks of 4 uber-rich, middle age men who have run out of ideas.
ReLoad didnt work, St. Anger didnt work, so why not back to basics? A lot of people said the rot started from the Black album. Load was decent in patches, I know bands progress their sound, but if it all goes t!ts up, why not go back....
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
Because now that they've gone back they haven't been able to produce the same form as MOP and RTL. This album is average (although a couple of the tracks are not too bad).
I agree that they had lost their direction on recent albums but...if they have nothing new to say, perhaps they should way nothing.
I haven't even bothered to check this album out, and probably won't.
As far is metal is concerned, there is just SO much more than Metallica out there. That's more than enough to keep me happy.
to be honest i find myself having to go backwards rather than forwards when it comes to metal
hopefully priest, megadeth and testament should be good. But I find myself listening to more and more of the Gods of Metal rather than any of the new stuff as its like the new indie tight jeans crap thats been poisoning the charts for hte last few years, they all come and go and are gone after a couple of albums.
