Rating: - Death Magnetic FTW
Ok the title is a bit silly since I don't tend to use FTW at all but having been an on again off again Metallica fan I have to say I would have paid full peice for this set of songs. Really enjoyed the range thay showed on this and I will probably go an pick up again my favorites from the past ...... I'm glad my girlfriend told me it was getting good press....and the fact it was 5 dollars at the time made it hard to pass up - price of a coffee and croissant cant beat that....
Rating: - Metallica Tries to Find Themselves Again
Metallica shows a good amount of progress toward getting back to their roots in this album with good rhythms and decent build ups to the energy they offer but this is still a long way from the true heart of Metallica which exists in the first three albums: Kill `em All, Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets; all thrash classics.

Rating: - Worth a listen
This album is a cornucopia of musical ideas. Many of the riffs sound pleasantly reminiscent of great Metallica albums from the past. There are, however, moments that sound a bit disconnected.

The lyrics are mostly unspectacular. I suppose I have been spoiled by previous Metallica albums. At times ... Read More
Rating: - If You Only Ever Own One Metal Album
Brutal, beautiful, relentless...there's cliches, and then there's archtypes...Jimi Hendrix; Pink Floyd; Black Flag; Chemical Brothers; METALLICA! Please forget the whole download massacre- if you can't feel this, then you can dine on poop! Coming from an old fart who's been around the block too many times- if you think there might be something to the metal mania- check it out. These guys are masters- think Hendrix, Floyd, the Flag, the Chem Bros.- metal is massive, and all those drug addicts/alcoholics ... Read More
Rating: - First half was great, but the second half was too dull (yawn!!!).
Well after reading a few good reviews right here on Amazon, I finally decided to buy this highly anticipated album and I must admit that after 15 times listening to this I'm still abit disappointed, yes the raw musical power is back with some great guitar work and nice drumming but none of the songs stuck out as being memorable and some of these songs were either mediocre or abit dull like the instrumental track Suicide and redemption and the second half started to lose some steam, there are some truly thrash ...
