so it took them six years to put together an album which WAS SUPPOSED TO SOUND LIKE CRAP? this album is awful. period. no qualifiers, no spin, no bullshit about "what they were going for" or "what they were going through"...if you took 1000 varied metal fans who (i know, this isn't possible, just a hypothetical for argument's sake) never heard of metallica or this album and played it for them, every last one of them would say it was shittier than that fucking river in India that half a billion people use as a sewer. And just to clarify my stance, I love Metallica. but this album sucks a big fat floppy donkey dong.

Yeah the songs were great.  I ripped the audio off of the studio DVD and it sounds much, much better for some reason.

I remember buying the CD when it first released, putting it in my truck stereo and leaving the record store.  As soon as I heard the  auditory abortion I thought there must have been a mistake and some random CD was accidentally put in the wrong case.

Nope.

I noticed that as well. Something went bad wrong when it got printed to the CDs.


Good album, but it sounds like the mixing warbels in and out on different tracks.

Someone gave me a free copy of St. Anger when it came out. I refused it. I've been a Metallica fan since Ride the Lightning came out and I have bought most of the albums up to the black album at least 3 or 4 times over the years. Can't pay me enough to listen to their "new" garbage.

AJFA was awesome but MOP is where it's at for me. If they didn't turn all of Newsted's bass tracks way down AJFA would have sounded a lot better.

My disc came with a DVD of them playing the songs, in order.  The mix was radically different, and SHOULD have been what they used on the actual album.

Death Magnetic was full of songs that had potential, but veered off into WTFland, for a sum total of absolute garbage.

What. The. Fuck? That isn't the sound of snare drums. That's the sound of someone hammering nails into a roof. A convenient sound, because I'd rather fall off a roof, and have my neck break my fall, than listen to that coathanger abortion disguised as an album again.

Bob Rock RUINED Metallica.

Dunno WTF they were thinking when they got rid of Flemming Rasmussen.

I get that (with the exception of AC/DC) bands change musical styles as they age. Shit that you write/record when you are 20-30 isn't gonna be the same as when you are 30+. And you wanna try different things.
Unless Metallica wanted to see how bad they could sound, I don't see what the logic was in the direction they took after Justice.

And I say that as a disappointed, longtime fan, not some hater.

Same here.  Master of Puppets was epic as well, but no album flows better from start to finish than Justice.

While old metallica is best metallica, I like the newer stuff (relatively speaking as load is 20 years old) for what it is. However, St. Anger is an absolute pile of fucking Miley Cyrus Aids infested dog shit. They new it was shit.



Death Magnetic was a step in the right direction.
