    It all ended for me with load, I just lost interest, there were a couple of good songs, but not enough to redeem the album, I heard various singles on the radio or whatever over the next few years, and they all sucked. I think Hetfield was a great writer back in the day, but he has lost it now too. I think most people are expressing a somewhat similar opinion.

    Anything after the black album has been akin to a steaming turd coming out of my stereo, and landing in my lap.

    STANGER (as I like to call it) sounds like a drumkit being kicked around a pantry.

    "Hello??? Production, where are you???" Trying to be nu-metal, no soloing, no harmonies, just noise and recycled lyrics-

    St. Anger: "F*ck it all and no regrets, I hit the lights on these dark sets"

    Damage Inc.: "So f*ck it all and f*cking no regrets, Never happy endings on these dark sets"

    Lazy shower of &$^(*&"!%^£$!("&*$%)&$%!)&*"$)^

    Master of puppets - Best metal album EVER.

    metallica are brilliant , st anger granted is pretty bad in comparison to other albums but the show they put on in dublin last year was brilliant , and the one this year will be just as good and there doing whiskey and all sorts , cant say there gone bad just because of one album .

    their version of whiskey in the jar is a travesty. they've been backing themselves into a corner for the last 15 odd years and now they're hoping that a 'heavy' album with break them out of a rut.

    The fact is Metallica is now a brand. They are not even reminiscent of the Metallica of the 80s. They've lost the spark that attracted all of their fans during that period.
    They have nothing to offer anymore. They cant even parody themselves properly!!

    But that only my opinion of course...:dunno:
