first

Hate to be pessimistic but does anyone honestly think this will be impressive? No.

/Thread

Prolly gonna be the shit.

WOAH they bought all of their masters?

lars ulrich is such a bad drummer its mindblowing, this will probably suck, keep rick ruben out of it too the last album sounded like shit

Heavy energetic and fast AOTY

I really liked the Beyond Magnetic EP, I thought it showed a lot of hope when the future was looking pretty grim after Lulu was released. If it's anything like Beyond Magnetic, it should be really good.

Gon' be gay

crossing my fingers for a trilogy; ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, ¡Table!

2014? dammit.

And justification for us all

“The stuff that we were banging out yesterday, it felt heavy, it felt energetic, it was loud"


For sure, it was loud. Now go ahead, record, and say 'fuck you' to dynamic range.


“I love Rick, we all love Rick”


I don't.

Look at the eyes of evil itself

gonna be dope as fuck

can't be worse than lulu

So are we done making Lulu jokes now? Table? Anybody?

Okay fine.

"http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/43/RickRubinSept09.jpg

that is one ugly ass dude.

It's gonna suck the table?

"heavy, it felt energetic, it was loud" lmfao wow, i guess you just summed up metal right there

shut ur trap rubin is a qt

Reminds me of Charles Manson.

Oh boy. This has the potential to be horrible. Well after the shit stain that was Lulu, I suppose Metallica can't do any worse

"The snare drum was on there "

THE snare?

So wait, there was a SNARE DRUM yesterday? I've never heard of a band doing that; godamn Lars is so creative.

will be bad probably

Didn't Lars say almost the same thing before making St. Anger?

As long as it doesn't end up sounding like Re-reload or Lulu.

This band is just putting out albums to make money, who cares.

"...album has so far been described by drummer Lars Ulrich as “heavy,” “energetic” and “fast.”'

The guy's a wordsmith.

"will be pushed back to 2016"

We can only hope.

NO METALLICA STAHP

Are they penetrating you

Even when they were really good, that was like before it came to 1990.

snare drum is on there m/

stop it

Oh no. He better not be talking about THE snare drum

Like, woah, not THAT snare drum

im feeling a st. anger part 2 coming

Album's that take 6 years are rarely good

Oh god, why...?

They'll release another Death Magnetic and won't try anything weird now that they're on their own label. This way it'll be a commercial success.

Yeah but since they are on their own label they can do whatever they want

They could, but they won't.

metallica gtfo

'The snare drum was on there'

We're all fucked then.

will probably be shittier than the Ganges River

nice

def. one of the best bands of all time

described by drummer Lars Ulrich as “heavy,” “energetic” and “fast.”

Says it all.

Band needs to FOAD.

i remember trying to decide between buying a metallica album and another band

i made the right choice

blackened is a good name for their label cuz that song rules

So they're writing the record
and it comes out in 2014?
It shouldn't take that long to write a record, proof it will suck right there

man if I was still 13 I'd have such a boner right now

"nice

def. one of the best bands of all time"

http://forum.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=45183;type=avatar

WOW they bought there own masters. My shit sounded better coming out than Lulu and St.anger. God I hope they try something new. BUT NOT SHITTY NEW. CMON. They did buy the masters... right? This album won't suck?

I'm just glad Lars can play the snare drum! Phew...

Edit: @gwynbleidd: HAHA. Yup. THE BEST. NOBODYS BETTER. ALL TIME. OMG SO GOOD. The best band of....

"The snare drum was on there"

lol what, that's like saying "the guitars were plugged in oh man it's gonna be great"

lol

"I'm just glad Lars can play the snare drum! Phew..."

I'm putting that in question, he says it's there, but he didn't said he was good at it...

Still haven't listened to Death Magnetic.

great...

@gwynbleidd "I'm putting that in question, he says it's there, but he didn't said he was good at it..."
Maybe he'll take it out like he did on St.Anger. Wouldn't that just be friggin fine and dandy?

This album will beat all expectations because the expectations are so damn low!

YES A METALLICA SNARE SOLO

would suck so bad not even worth joking about it

The Snare's gonna get you

"The snare drum was on there"

lmao

2014? Man as much as I love Metallica, they sure bring out albums every 5 years nowadays.

Seems like this record is going to be crazy fast and super energetic and mega loud.

Nek minnut clean chorus and breakdowns

Metallica writing a new album= over a year til released
Everyone else= 6 months
Emmure= 2 weeks

tool = 10,000 days

Lol

Dm is saved

You do realise that part of why Lulu was so fucking bad is because Lou Reed was on it?

I still have hope for them

And the fuckin horrible drum intro

I use "drum" and "intro" very very lightly

Wow! So much hate toward the legends of metal...A band that's inspired countless others and continue to produce banging tracks 30 yrs into their career...hmmm...stinks of envy imo...what are all these Bieber fans doing here?...

"he didn't come up with I AM THE TABLE!"

True Dat, but then again, isn't Lulu from a play or something. I'm not sure James came up with it himself

I am....................THE TABLE!

Lou Reed guest appearance, plz.

I probably should, but then again, I still love jamming their old shit

I'm a little bit excited, if the production is decent with some good metal songs it will be a fun listen.

And by them having their masters I expect that big old deluxe editions of their discography will come out very soon.

Never know, it might be good

@ Andcas - Why comment on a band you're not a fan of?? Does your insignificance eat you up to such an extent you feel the need to troll?...Leave the Metallica blogs to Metallica fans...If you gonna troll, at least have some substantial material to support your views instead of saying ''the band is a joke'' , back up your statements...You're clearly not a muzo...

can see it being ok

“The snare drum was on there and there were guitar solos, in case anybody was wondering.

Sounds like a Sputnik review.

and I might time travel to marry winona ryder when she was younger.

Are you into little boys?

maybe lars is a frequent user

Maybe he's Hawks.

Is Lou Reed going to be in this one? I hope he is.

prolly gonna sound like ...and lulu for all

It should've been called "the table" records

Can't be worse than Lulu. [2]

"crossing my fingers for a trilogy; ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, ¡Table!"

Haha that's great.

"The snare drum was on there and there are guitar solos."
"Heavy, energetic, fast."

Sounds pretty groundbreaking.
I often wonder why out of all 4 of them, Lars is the spokesman for the band.

It's going to suck, I'm sure.

I think Metallica albums take so long because they really don't have any new ideas.

i have hope
not much...but its there

"The snare drum was on there and there"

lol'd because what is this I don't even

i'm satisfied if it's better than Death magnetic

“The snare drum was on there and there were guitar solos"

Was the bass involved? How about vocals?

Crossing my fingers for a cymbal crash!

haha dude a bunch of comments up trying SO hard to troll. I'm not even going to give this a second thought. When the album comes out I'll listen to it then. Screw having hope for this band, I have none.

I love that Lars is the spokesperson for the group, because he inevitably says something idiotic and I get to laugh at it.

"Wow! So much hate toward the legends of metal...A band that's inspired countless others and continue to produce banging tracks 30 yrs into their career...hmmm...stinks of envy imo...what are all these Bieber fans doing here?..."

Go back to youtube

guitar solos and the snare drum 5/5

Will always hold out a nugget of hope for this band. A small tiny nugget but it's there.

Why does anyone still have any hope at all for this band? Sure, they made good albums, yeah, 25-30
years ago. Their music has been shit for decades now to the point where they shouldn't even be
relevant.

the band isn't relevant. however, their name will always draw interest by way of nostalgia


this will undoubtedly disappoint, since they will never recapture the precedent that was set in their heyday

"Will always hold out a nugget of hope for this band. A small tiny nugget but it's there. "

unfortunately i ran out of nuggets when i turned 14

Just give up Metallica

m/

well pretty much every other thrash band has made a decent comeback

maybs metallica can

Even if the instrumental aspect of this is good, James will undoubtedly ruin it with his vocals.

"even IF the instrumental aspect of this is good"

The expectations are that low...

Death Magnetic was alright. It had some cool moments here and there but I don't think I'd give it anything higher than a 3. I'd say it's like a 3.2 or something.

And I just checked and it does have a 3.2 average. That's accurate.

So will the new album be a 2 or a 2.5

It'll be a 3.1

Cool.

Be better than any of the crap Mustaine is spewing these days

yeah no

Endgame was great

Oh no. They're at it again.

Still haven't listened to Death Magnetic.

"Hate to be pessimistic but does anyone honestly think this will be impressive? "

Everyone on Ultimate-Guitar.com will jizz over it.

Creeping Death Records
Ktulu Recordings
Four Horsemen Records
2X4 Productions

I wonder how many names they tried before sticking with Blackened.

What's the deal with rick rubin? He's constantly working with great artists, but he makes good music
sound terrible. See basically the RHCPs entire catalog (aside from BSSM) and Death Magnetic

probably the only reason i wish i was rich. so i could walk around looking like a filthy bum and still have peeps kissing my ass cuz i supposedly shit gold records

why is this not death grips
lol rubin... they should replace rubin with flatlander, ulrich with zach hill, and hetfield with mc ride, and then kick everyone else out

This will probably be very bad.

I hope it sounds like static again

Fuck this band. Haven't listened to them since grad school. Album will likely suck.

I smell more shitty recycling from their classic era. Lame.

This time they'll team up with trivium and a7x to reinvent thrash metal

I'm with Barack, this is gonna lick balls.

And Trivium loves Metallica. And Kirk hammett wore a Trivium shirt on stage which means he wants to secretly have butt sex with them. I say they all just go buy their own country and spend their days ramming their bones up each others asses.

Just too complex for our brains to comprehend, andcas.

I honestly hope this will be better than Death Magnetic, but i have a feeling that it will still fall short...

Being better than Death Magnetic really isn't saying a whole lot.

*2 decades

I'd bet my dick this album will not be worth spending money on.

invisible kid records m/

omg they won't. That album was too bad, even for them.

LOL. So bad.

DESTINED TO SUCK



DICK

I wish I could say that I'm looking forward to this, but I'm not. I'm really not.

Cannot be worse than St. Anger... I dare them to try!

Can't stop this train

SOMEOME HELP ME
OH PLEASE, GOD HELP US!

THEY`RE TRYING TO KILL OUR EARS AGAAAAAIN
AND I.. DONT WANT TO DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

i wonder how it feels knowing theyll never make an album better than rust in peace
