Death Magnetic Options

[Oasis]

...is seriously badass. They promised a return to their thrash roots and they delivered.

Go out and buy it, fuckers

I just downloaded it. So far i've listened to the first two or three songs.

It sounds exactly like every other metal band out there that was influenced by Metallica and tried to sound like Metallica, except this actually IS Metallica and they are trying to sound like themselves?
... But they're not accomplishing it very well because they just sound like every other band out there that copied them?

This album is roughly the equivelent of Load [of sh!t] and Re-Load [of shIt] ... It doesn't make me think of Kill Em All, Puppets, or even And Justice For All.

It makes me think they figured if they hyped the sh!t out of this album and told people "No really this will really actually be a Metallica album this time" they'd get people to buy it.

This album is doing absolutley nothing for me. It's not heavy, it's not fast, it's not even that melodic. It's a "Metallica" album I guess.

Personally I wish I had my $10 back.

Are you saying Metallica is ripping off....Metallica?

They hyped this for the last year as a "return to their roots" and all it does is sound like the Offspring trying to write a Metallica tribute album only with unreleased songs.

The songs are not heavy, they are not fast, they are not melodic. They sound like they put the whole album together with Pro Tools instead of actually writing and recording an album.

It sounds so cookie-cutter I cannot believe I was dumb enough to think it might have been anything different.

I'm sure this will please the "rock radio" crowd who will eat up any generic type of rock music they can find ... hey, at least to their credit, it's not nigger music, but still .... it's time for Metallica to throw in the towel. They haven't done SHIT in 15 years. Stop trying to cash in on the 80's.
