[QUOTE=heavy metal kid]For Rob maybe not, he seems clean.

I'm hearing Load right now, Ain't my Bitch is awesome, too bad many people don't even bother to give it a shot.[/QUOTE]

anyone else like "mama said?"

I like Mama Said, hell i like the whole Load album, with the exception of Cure.

[QUOTE=ghettoeddo]anyone else like "mama said?"[/QUOTE]
Mama said is probably one of my favourites on the album.

I don't get why people slate it so much.

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]I kinda think 4 years is a little too long between each album.[/QUOTE]I don't really think about a length of time being 'too long', to make an album. I mean it's not as if a band like Metallica owe us anything (we probably owe them!), so if they wanted to take some time off with the family, or just slow down a bit, then I think we have to respect that. With that said, I'm really looking forward to the new album, but I can wait another year.

Maybe but the guys said they've been writing new songs since what - the tours in '04.

Yeah, but this is probably the most important album they've ever made, seeing as St Anger recieved mass criticism, if the new album bombs, then they may never gain their respect back.

If that's true then they're kinda going against the "we do what we want and what others think doesn't mean anything" attitude they have.

Yeah they might say that, but I seriously think they were affected by the poor response to St Anger. Often in interviews you hear them say 'We needed to get that anger ous of our system', I might be reading to much into it, but that sounds almost condescending toward the album to me. It's like they wouldn't have written the album if they wern't angry at the time, and because they were, they couldn't write the music they would prefer to write.

That's just the way I look at it, it's probably quite innacurate to be honest. I know they probably write music for themseles at the end of the idea, but I can't help but think they regret making St Anger slightly. They don't regret the process and how it helped move them on as people, but maybe the album itself.

[QUOTE=iliketoplaydrums10111]amen

can someone suggest more songs from metallica that are decent besides

master of puppets
fade to black
the one
enter sandman
the unforgivin

i know there is more, those are just the ones im familiar with:)[/QUOTE]
I like the "Reload" album, w/ fuel and the memory remains.

I was listening to that new song again last night, and I could definately hear some St. Anger in it. Like when the drums properly come in, it's got that groove that makes James do that dance he did in the St. Anger rehearsals DVD. And then that riff after sounds like something off of it too, the drums just play bass snare bass snare. I actually think Triviums new song sounds more like Metallica than Metallica.

I really like the intro off it, especially the drums. I can't actually remember the rest of it.

I think it sounds a little too Metallica. ;)

Yeah definately, everything about it reminded me of something off Puppets.

But I'm watching the New Song AGAIN, and I really like that half time part. And I can hear Load in there too, regardless, I like it.

I think it's one of their best songs since the black album.

I think it's really good, but I really loved Load and Reload, so I couldn't say that. Load/re-load is my second favorite era of the band, after RTL/MOP.

I agree with you there totally. They haven't played any St Anger songs in their little tour this year and you're right, they put the album down to 'how they felt at the time'.
Also, Metallica began working on the new album pretty much straight after the St Anger tour, almost as if they're rushing to get a new album out to take St Anger's place. The New Song sounds like St Anger + ReLoad and maybe a teeny bit of Black Album. Can't wait for the new album.

Who ever is uploading all of this Al Di Meola - good choices! Elegant Gypsy and Casino are two of my favorite albums. Amazing music.

Wrong thread?

I'm not sure rushing's the right word.

Oh, so it's not on the 14th. Hmm. I'll keep an eye out.

Hopefully it sounds ok.

There is a sickening amount of pages for this thread, as big of a Metallica fan I am, I'm not even gonna bother to try read it.

There are a few people here who have read it all. :cool:

That sounds quality, would never have imagined them doing that!

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]I'm not sure rushing's the right word.[/QUOTE]
Well, maybe not rushing, but eager to get a new album out.

It's pretty good so far. Keep at it :thumb:

One tempo problem though, don't bars 19 - 34 go faster? You're on track with the drums (they sound good) but it seems as if the guitars go faster than that.

[QUOTE]Well, maybe not rushing, but eager to get a new album out.[/QUOTE]

Well I hope it comes out soon enough so that tickets go on sale between this July and next July because I'm getting a MetClub membership for my birthday.

The TV show sounds cool. What's it called and when does it air?
