Anyone looking forward to Death Magnetic? from the clips i've heard, it sounds superb. The first single "The Day That Never Comes" is premiering tomorrow 8/21/08 at 11am on your local radio station. Also going to see them on 12/12 and 12/17. Indeed exciting times for Metallica and NIN!

I don't know much about Metallica. Of course I know Nothing else matters, Enter Sandman, Sad but true, Master of Puppets..., the famous stuff, but Load is the first album I listen to, it's pretty good. Metallica played my town (Arras) last week, I heard it was awesome. I'm probably going to get interested in the band

I've been pleasantly surprised by the three samples of Death Magnetic that the band has posted on their website. From the sounds of things, Death Magnetic might actually be decent.

Captain Spectacular member Californicator Joined: 11/27/07 Location: Behind Space Posts: 64	I was a huge Metallica fan. I guess I still am. They're one of my all-time favourites, and they've been #1 for much of the last 15 years. I even loved the Loads. Lately though, I've been losing interest. Maybe it's just one of those phases where I need a little break, or maybe it's just that I've found so many bands that are more unique and exciting. St. Anger didn't help matters. I hope Death Magnetic gets me excited about this band again. I fear they're washed up, and that's disappointing given how much I love their pre-2000 music. That makes it hard to get too excited for the new record. I don't want to set myself up for another huge disappointment.

unretrofied member first trent, then jesus Joined: 08/16/08 Location: los angeles-ca-usa-earth Posts: 224	well for the doubtful fans of death magnetic, the new single will air today at 11am, KROQ will be airing it, count down on front page, there's a 30 second clip on youtube, apparently people in australia on itunes can buy it or preview it, not sure. Sounds very "one" style, i can't wait, 2.5 hours! Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 08/21/2008 09:36AM by unretrofied.

EDIT: It's a shame they mastered it to be ridiculously loud. It distorts other parts of the song, like James' vocals. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 08/21/2008 01:43PM by pushingreality.

unretrofied member first trent, then jesus Joined: 08/16/08 Location: los angeles-ca-usa-earth Posts: 224	love the song, gets better each time i listen to it. and don' worry about the audio quality, i doubt it's the final master. the club members got it for free. bands usually release crappy quality singles for their upcoming albums, Trivium, Slipknot, just did weeks ago, great songs but horrible quality.

Apparently the mastering was an error (no shit) that will not be present on the record. There was a lot of bitching on the Metallica BB - and justifiably so - and that's the gist of the response given. So that's a relief at least. The song is pretty good. Better than "Cyanaide." Would be even better if Lars was lower in the mix so I could properly ignore him as usual.

Sorry bro, but Dave Lombardo's drumming nowadays is miles better than Lars'. Twenty years ago, Lars ruled Thrash, but these days Dave, Kerry, Tom and Jeff are the Kings of ThrasH. And for good reason too! <hint: it's because they didn't sell out like Mtallica$h did in 1995>

Shedding_Skin member Joined: 05/04/08 Posts: 2,136	Yep, because Lombardo quit in 1989, but came back in 2002. About Metallica$h, they're still by and large a joke within the metal community. It's funny watching a YouTube interview and seeing (insert random metal artist here) say "yeah that song for us was about as bad as St. Anger" LULZ

I listened to The Day that Never Comes, and it was alright, tho the drumming was kinda annoying. My favorites are The Black Album and definately Ride the Lightning. Fade to Black is epic.

Miss.Selfdestruct member Joined: 09/03/08 Location: Kalifornia Posts: 70	used to be huge into them. Fade to Black pretty much got me into the metal world. AJFA>the rest. still dig them from time to time, except for $tanger. am quite impressed with the new album. it's pretty average in general but definitely above average on the Metallica scale. Hetfield should do a solo cuntry/blues/metal album sometime.
