Kill Them All = Great
Ride The lightening = Great
Master of Puppets = Great
And Justice For All = Great
"Black album" = Utter shit
Load = Load of crap
Reload = as if the first one wasn't bad enough

throw in napster and metallica has had a run of crap for a good 10 years...

I am highly skeptical...

i would venture a guess more likely than not the new album is not "like there old stuff" but is a poor attempt to recreate a style, emotion and aggression that metallica as musicians lost a long time ago... after listening to the sample of "Frantic" off the website it sure sounds liek they are trying to hard... what used to come natural is now something they have to work for, some thing contrived...

I hope im wrong
