Metallica's new album

[Devil 505]

Just listened to Metallica's new album, "Hardwired...to Self-Destruct."

This "New Metallica" is about as good as the last "New Metallica" (2008), which is much better than the old "New Metallica" (1994-2002) and almost as good as the first "New Metallica" (1990) but not nearly as good as the new "Old Metallica" (1988) and especially not close to the greatness of old "Old Metallica" (1983-1986)

In short, Megadeth is still better.

Metallica screwed it's fans. They can burn in hell.

After the black album metallica began producing main stream accessible music for its marketability. In other words for decades now they've been making music for people who dont like metallica.

Devil, how much have you had to drink bud?

So wait its just as bad as St. Anger? I think I listened to it once and put it back in the case to never be listened to again.  If its as good as Load or Reload, I'll buy it though, some good songs on those.

I still like OLD Metallica (exp: "Ride the Lightening") and I DO like "Whiskey in the Jar"
Other than that I don't listen to them. I don't even bother with their new stuff...and I just happened to hear "Whiskey in the Jar" on the radio and liked it for itself.

Just listened to Moth Into Flame its pretty good. They did the force awakens thing and went retro. The lyrics aren't up to the 80s Metallica standards tho.

And justice for all was the last really good album. The black album was mediocre and after that its crap.

St. Anger was strait up awful. Hardwired is on par with Death Magnetic for better and worse. It has a more diverse sound which kind of covers their entire discography. James sounds better than he has in years, but unfortunately the lyrics are mostly mediocre and nonsensical. If you like their 90's stuff then check it out.

Mostly. The lyrics and tuning really hold it back from reaching that level. "Moth into Flame" is very good, as is "Atlas, Rise!" but a couple of other "thrashy" songs I think are pretty flat - especially "Hardwired"

didnt like hardwired at all.  Moth into the flame is good, so ill listen to the rest of it in the morning.

Things started getting weird with Metallica after Garage, Inc.  The music just turned bad.  I wish I could articulate it better, but that's what it boils down to.  Metallica S&M, using a full symphony was pretty neat though.

There's not much metallica I don't like.  I don't lime St. Anger.  Who really does??  The drums sound like someone banging on a trashcan lid.  I was skeptical of Death Magnetic at first but it grew on me.  I hope hardwired isn't all like the title track.  It sucks.
