I just bought it. Listened through it a couple of times now. Its growing on me and its a damn good cd, but it still pains me to say its a bit of a disappointment. Once again, people were saying they were going back to the glory days-style of master of puppets and ride the lightning...and i have to disagree. it still reminds me of, and sounds abit like the
st anger. Although it has some killer guitar riffs and solos, and there isn't a song less than 5 minutes. I can't tell you how many cds i have bought that are only 30-45 minutes long.
well, there's my rant, anyone else have opinions?

 

Anything past the Black album = garbage

 

^^yup..pretty much

 

After the napster thing... no respect for them, even if they are capable of making a kickass album, I won't listen to it.

 

I'm listening to it as I'm typing this - pretty decent so far.

I have to to agree that the Black Album was probably their best, but I'm seeing them live in November so I thought I should at least get the new one and see what I'm in for.
