There will be a live, limited release album on Black Friday.(I believe they said Black friday). To be sold in Indie stores only. No Walmarts, Targets, etc.
Just a FYI if anyone is interested.

Great, another album to listen to one of my favorite bands deteriorate a little more.
Hetfield: " We love you guys so much! You complete us and make us feel good about our feelings!"
Ulrich: "Playing in front of our fans is such wonderful therapy."
Hammett: (in girly voice) "Here's your tennis racket back Lars, the handle smells like poo."
Trujillo: "What am I doing with these girls?"
Nope, I'll have to pass on the latest offering from these blathering d-bags.

they sold out their new sound is crap IMO

I like all of metallica's music, im not so much of a fan boy i hate or dislike any one cd or track, like it for what it is,not for that it is not.
:aok

Man I loved them right through And Justice For All. The Black Album to my mind was right where they went to crap. It was amazing to me how much they changed from one album to the next. Master of Puppets is still one of my all time favorite metal albums, The Thing That Should Not Be is just fantastic. I'll have to pass on anything new yet again, everything I've heard of theirs for years has just been steadily worse. I think I'll go listen to some of their old stuff now.

I'm sure you'll be able to find it for free online somewhere.

Wtf is "YEA-YA"? It seems in almost all of their songs now. I like Early-Black Album Metallica, although there are a "few" ok ones on the newest stuff...
For Whom the Bell Tolls is still my all time favourite, especially the live version with Cliff Burton shredding on the bass. :devil

I have to agree with Madda, Justice for All was a masterpiece of metal composition. Everything after is bubblegum.

Come on man, even you should be astute enough to understand they had "sold out" by the making of this more "mainstream marketed" record. To say "no" to the fact that Metallica themselves have admitted, says a lot about their fan base.
I was 10 years old when Kill em All was released and loved it as much then, as I do now. Ride the Lightning was great, but "Orion" on MoP is their Opus. Here is a song that is damn near perfect in song, that lyrics aren't even needed. "One", "Blackened" and ...And Justice were overplayed and started the "mainstream breakout" altogether.
Today, they are a small shell of their former selves. Suing Napster, so they could use the money for more blow (before their personal dealings as addicts). Lars, trying to come across as one of the most intellectual humans ever to grace the Earth. Kirk Hammett and Trujillo are excellent musicians and hopefully get their share of proper input in the coming albums.
I choose to remember pre ...And Justice and ignore all of their "hype" from new releases. Although, Trujillo is their best Bassist since Burton. Newstead was not as "free-form" as I thought he could have been.
-
I like Metallica, new and old. Why should a band play the same old stuff they played 20 years ago? Sure, they're new songs aren't quite as "awesome" as their older stuff, but I wouldn't want to listen to the same old songs for every new album they make.

Meh. Black Album is their best. And justice for all #2. Load #3 (flame me!). I don't care that it is softer and more 'mainstream'. They sound better, because they are better songs.

Seriously Grizz, you ARE the first person I have talked to and puts that as their #1. I wasn't "telling what/what not to like" and I'm sure you knew that already.

Trujillo is awesome for sure. I loved him in Suicidal and Infectious Grooves. Met him once at a concert, really cool dude. I agree that Black album is bubblegum, just not as sweet a gum as Madonna or some such. It's more BigRed than HubbaBubba if you get me. Garage Days was good too K, don't leave that one out. I prolly should have mentioned Kill'em all and Lightening, thanks for picking that one up.

Nobody can really flame you man, it's all just opinions really. I agree with your #2 pick, just none of your others. But what someone likes is just what they like and that's it, subjective not objective. You have every right to be wrong. :D
With that said, I remember a few years ago I got in my car with a buddy, when I turned it on there was some gawdawful song playing on the radio. I said to my friend, this is like a toejamty band trying very hard to sound like Metallica, I hope they never play this again. A minute later the DJ comes on and says how that was Metallica's new single. We both got a really good laugh.

If you are going to say something so asinine could you at least elaborate?
Well yes i will.
Lars : His drums have lost their low end. Along with a trashier tuning. Snare is a bit too over powering along with some cymbals in the mixes since (black album). His writing style has lacked since that albums as well. Personally tired of hearing him hit the cymbal and snare together on the upbeat. Lars in my opinion has always been a sub par drummer. And is very over rated.
James : Is actually trying to sing but, poor guy cant cut it. His natural tone isnt made for the notes he attempts.
His guitar tones have lost their edge. Too many highs and mids with very little lows.
Kirk : Has he EVER played a song without the same old played out wah peddle lead? And his tones have changed as well. For the worse. His writing style and note choices are very easy and not to his level.
Their production on their albums is lacking VERY bad. It is sub par and not mixed very well. Ive heard better demos from local garage bands. Their overall writing style is lacking very bad. Its almost like they pound out a few songs that are easy for them and say "#$@ it, throw it on the album".
As Far as robert, that guy has his act together. Top notch bass player, great tone, clear and great stage presents.
Writing style is 2nd to none. Great use of notes. Doesnt over play but does show some skills.
My overall view on Metallica. Once was a great band. But burned out long ago and they refuse to let it go. So they throw crap noise out about every 2 or 3 years just to make a few dollars.
Im saying all this from my professional stand point in the music business. Many producers and engineers have had talks about their last couple of albums. And those talks wasnt good.

Well they are in their late 40's still rocking. You obviously aren't going to get the same ferocity out of a band in their early 20's, I take their new music for what it is worth. I thought St Anger sucked, but I thought death magnetic was real good. I'd much rather have burnt out rock from one of my fav bands of all time still producing music with quality, than these poser emo rock bands that fill the radio air waves nowadays.

Music i really like from a musician and producer stand point. Well written, nice polyrythms, great vocal range engineered and produced very well. IF you can get passed the way its compressed to crap for youtube.

This next song was also well written. Nice use of midi samples and a powerful driving bass line. Very simple but beautiful song. Im a big fan of his music.

Tallica IMO, have really lost their edge since Newstead was booted. Seems of late they are trying really hard to appease to a certain crowd just for the $$$.
Although Justice being my fav album, the sound quality is just damn annoying (sounds like Lars is bangin on cardboard). I credit Bob Rock when he came to the scene with the black album which made a world of difference.
I saw them live during the Puppets tour(Awsome), saw them again on the Justice and black tours (Awsomer!!) then caught em again last year and sadly I left the show early.
Seems they trying to fit the bill as Ozzy and Aerosmith have been doing it for 40 years and still going. Thing is, Ozzy and Aerosmith can still do it. Hammette (which will always be an amazing lead guitarist) needs to do his own project while Hetfeild and Ulrich need to debloat their alcohol induced faces and look towards the scooter store for the near future.

Yeah Cliff was good and sorely missed with Metallica. They lost it all I believe when he died tragically.
But could you imagine the sound if they would have hired my favorite bassist when he auditioned for them? (it wouldn't have worked I know)

Ya Metallica Died When Cliff Died in the bus Accident, The Nail in the Coffin was when Jason split the Band due to James and Lars not allowing him to Voice his opinion on new music and bass Riff's Hate to say it but Metallica Sold out when they went mainstream and Cut their hair off thats when the music also went to poo.. Ashame to Cause their Earlier Music Really Rocked and my band and I covered alot of the Earlier tunes almost 20 yrs ago, it was to the point I played Cliff's Bass Solo 3 counts higher then when he played it to speed it up a little fingers were killing me by the end but man it sounded good.
Long Live Cliff!!!!

Oh man do I love my Claypool! Seen that guy every time he came around here, going back to the Frizzle Fry days when I first became aware of them. Got all the albums at one point or another too. Dude is just amazing and writes awesome catchy songs. They did a sweet cover of the Thing That Should Not Be a few years back when I saw them too, which is cool because it's one of my favorite Metallica songs covered by one of my favorite bands. It never would have worked out between them at all though, he's too different from everyone else musically and probably personality wise. I saw a clip once where he met Marilyn Manson and totally freaked him out by being really friendly and goofy. Great stuff.

Oh man do I love my Claypool!
He did audition for Metallica when they were looking for a new bass player many years ago. According to Claypool, Metallica didn't like his audition and asked him to leave because they thought he was joking when he started playing The Isley Brothers.

That's fine some don't hold folks responsible for their actions.
There are all kinds....... some still like Jane Fonda even though she probably caused the death of many of our soldiers.
I was just stating why i don't like them. I do care... you don't.... that's fine.

My fav band is Tool and quite frankly, I think their lead singer is a huge salamander. I would never want to meet the guy, even though I do idolize the band due to their incredible musical talent.

This is my favorite band of all times.
Great vocals, Guitar parts are well written, drummer is an absolute genius, bass player is one of the best.
Im yet to hear a bad song out of them in 3 albums. Many call them the Australian Tool.
You want heavy polyrythmic music? Check this instrumental out. Best i have EVER heard. Oh and this is the guitarist playing the drums and guitar on this first song. That is what we call EPIC talent :) :aok

I've been a huge fan of Metallica since I was a little kid (even though I was born during the Black Album days and was hooked by the overplayed "Enter Sandman" or "The Unforgiven"). In my teen years when I discovered the Kill Em All through Justice I was really hooked. For me, Justice is my favorite album, followed by either MoP or Ride. When I heard about the release of Death Magnetic I was anxious to hear it, but I was disappointed. I'm still a Metallica fan, but I stick with my pre-90s Metallica when I really want to jam (which is the majority of the songs I attempt to play on guitar). I want to see them live before they retire jsut to be able to say I saw my favorite band live.

I agree on Master's, but picking and choosing through the next albums is all one can do.
However, SNM being that I like classical, was a nice blend. Some of those songs, sound killer with the violins. Just my opinion

Especially "No Leaf Clover". The orchestration adds a lot to an already awesome song :rock
