Choada_Boy Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Could be worse. Hetfield should stop trying to be a singer and just ROCK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevbone Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 I am glad you said that. Most of the riffs are pretty rad right up until James starts to sing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaskadskyjKozak Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Could be worse. Hetfield should stop trying to be a singer and just ROCK. Hetfield just doesn't get it: don't sing. The sound production is lacking as well. Still, it is one of the better releases from 2008, and definitely better than Load/Reload/St. Anger.

billcoe Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I gave up on them after the Napster thing. I would refer you to the true genius and greatness of Al whats hisname for more info. [video:youtube]Yz-grdpKVqg Or my son said for a long time you could download it for free of from Weird Als site! Link to Weird Al Yankovic "In April 2000, Ulrich became a vocal opponent of Napster and file sharing as Metallica sued the company for copyright infringement and racketeering. In July 2000, he testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee after Metallica's entire catalogue was found to be freely available for download on the service. The case was settled out-of-court, resulting in more than 300,000 Napster users being banned from the service.[3] Due to his high profile role in Napster's legal troubles and subsequent demise, Ulrich faced significant criticism and ridicule from users of the service.[4] Since the Napster ordeal, Ulrich was quoted by LAUNCHcast as having some regrets:[5] “ I wish that I was more...you know, I felt kind of ambushed by the whole thing because I didn't really know enough about what we were getting ourselves into when we jumped. [...] We didn't know enough about the kind of grassroots thing, and what had been going on the last couple of months in the country as this whole new phenomenon was going on. We were just so stuck in our controlling ways of wanting to control everything that had to do with METALLICA. So we were caught off guard and we had a little bit of a rougher landing on that one than on other times than when we just blindly leap. But you know, I'm still proud of the fact that we did leap... and I took a lot of hits and it was difficult. ” One such 'hit' was being featured in an episode of South Park in which the children are taught not to download illegally because multi-millionaires like Ulrich now have to wait a little longer to buy expensive, extravagant things, like the ridiculous "gold-plated shark tank bar beside the pool". The segment is a parody of the Napster case. Ulrich has been target to many verbal attacks after this incident." __________________________________________________________________ Frankie Yankovic, the late Polka King and seller of 30 million records who passed at 83 years old in 1998 (no relation although Al played on one of Frankies albums!) could hit that accordion way hot too!

kevbone Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 Still, it is one of the better releases from 2008, and definitely better than Load/Reload/St. Anger. I agree. I would love to hear the album in its entirety without the singing. Super cool riffs……. I agree with Lars. Screw those who steal art……. :rocken: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
