Guest Johnson1620 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Since I am an old guy I doubt to many people will appreciate this thread. I hate just about all the new music out today. The Black album (Mettalica) sucked. Load and Reload swallowed But finally after 15 years we have finally got a good Metallica album. St. Anger is the bad boys of metal going back to their roots. And after hearing a few tracks from the new cd, I must say I am stoked. Their back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Actually you sounded like most of the people in the music thread in that post. So everyone will probably appreciate this thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 16, 2003 You know...2 or 3 years ago I would've loved hearing this. I just don't give a shit about the band in any form now. I already have their real roots so screw faux vintage Metallica. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 I'm one of the few that liked Load and Reload so I'll check it out. Not saying this album is like those, but I'm less likely to hate it than others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Johnson1620 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 From the songs I heard it sounds more like Puppets and Justice. Two of my favorite albums of all time. I also heard the music from Sandman II. It sounded pretty good, but without vocals it's hard to tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Johnson1620 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Isn't there a non-symphony version of - Human on this album? I haven't heard it yet, but from what I understand there is. Do you know the release date? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 I'm guessing they also refined it since it was admittedly unfinished/unrefined when they used it in the S&M concert. No I don't know the release date.......I think it's in June or July. Let me go look it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 The album comes out June 9th in Europe and June 10th everywhere else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 And here's the track list. Looks like some of those demos didn't even make the final cut: Frantic St. Anger Some Kind of Monster Dirty Window Invisible Kid My World Shoot Me Again Sweet Amber Unnamed Feeling Purify All Within My Hands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Oh and if you haven't figured it out yet most of the "demos" floating around the net are fake so who knows what we've actually heard of the new album? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Hmmm.....Kirk Hammet has grown his hair back out. So that must mean within 6 months he is either quitting the band, or will be thrown out. Really though, I am well past caring about Metallica. Since I was around 17 I went on to find much better metal bands and have no time for Metallica to try and "win me back" by "going back to their roots" I think it is disgusting how all these radio DJs pimp everything and anything with the name Metallica stamped to it, while the whole time ignoring the fact that half their fan base has said they have sucked since 1996. I almost don't care if the new Metallica is good or not. I aint buying it. If it is on the radio and it is decent, I simply won't turn the channel, but after the last few albums, and Lars' bullshit lash out at his OWN FANS...this band will never get another fucking penny out of me.

LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Oh and incase you were wondering I got all my above info from metallica.com so it's accurate. That really is the tracklist. Seems we've been had with all these "demos" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted April 16, 2003 They had 4 years for this Album and only churned out 11 songs...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BAR Report post Posted April 16, 2003 I've been a long time 'tallica fan. I got all the albums. Hell, I didn't even mind the Load's but don't expect Puppetz or Ride from this album. When they say they're going back to metal. They probably mean nu-metal. Just look at the SS03 line-up. And Lars' hair?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or as close as they are going to get. THe song I heard sound alot like Harvester Of Sorrow. So my hopes aren't up. I already know it's going to be the best album since Justice.

Guest Dmann2000 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 I've always said how can you be angry and hard when you're turning 40 with a wife and kids, and have managed to be successful AND the music is no longer a release for rage but you have FUN playing it. I never blamed Metallica for getting mellow. It was bound to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted April 16, 2003 oh I'm not criticizing them for being mellow, I'm criticizing them for sucking, never being heavy in the first place, and for lars looking like a pud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are you talking about? Metallica was never heavy in the first place? Now I admit when they went mellow they sucked but the songs I have heard on the new album aren't mellow they are hard like they were back in the 80's and early 90's. To say Metallica was never heavy is like saying Stevie Wonder was never blind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lethargic Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Every single time a band has said "with this new album we're going back to our roots and gonna sound like we did before started sucking" that album has sucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Slayer also got more mellow, but they didn't SUCK at it. They managed to keep a nice balance too the music so it didn't sound like Nu-Metal SHIT. That picture of Metallica makes them look even more Nu-Metal than before, with Kirk Hammet being the token Metal guy who wishes he was in another band.

Guest Johnson1620 Report post Posted April 16, 2003 Why the hell are you guys putting so much emphasis on a pic. That has nothing to do with the music they produce. Download one of the songs and listen to it, then give your opinion. Your opinion will mean alot more that way then saying they "look like" their music will suck. Just an observation.
