OK. I have to admit, I was skeptical about doing so at first, but I downloaded a couple tracks off the new Metallica album, and all I can say, is why the fuck did it take almost 20 years to release this? What the hell was all that filler crap in between? I haven't heard anything this brutal since Justice...The only reason I even downloaded it was because I'd heard the live version of Cyanide, and it sounded good.. Hell, to this day I haven't even listened to St. Anger all the way through, I've heard maybe two songs off it. I refuse to listen to it. This one is a whole different story. This is fucking amazing! I mean seriously. If you get the chance, download the tracks floating around right now: The Day That Never Comes (an eight minute song that starts off slow, but a couple minutes into it, they begin ripping you apart repeatedly!), My Apocalypse, which is 5 minutes of pure fucking thrash.. and Cyanide, which is a live version, but kick ass just the same! I had lost all respect for these guys.. Load had a couple good songs, so did Reload, but it wasn't METALLICA! The Black album was a little better than those two, but it still wasn't close to anything they did back in the 80's..And as far as Garage Inc. and S&M, I loved those albums, but Garage Inc. wasn't even original Metallica songs, and S&M was the songs they'd already done before, just with an orchestra. I'm definitely going to buy this album, what I've heard so far has not disappointed me at all. Just when I thought all hope was gone!
