zitro has listened to this several times. Good Prog-Related A Thrash Metal! great Musicianship, good Songwriting, average Production Back to the Roots, Metallica play fast and heavy like in the old days. Most songs are long and songwriting based around riffs. James (singer/rhythm guitar) is at his top form, bass and lead guitars are quite good too, and the drummer sounds like crap. Luckily, all songs are at least decent with the instrumental being probably the weakest one. Time_Signature has listened to this several times. Magnificent Epic Prog AS Thrash Metal! Groovy, Melodic, Aggressive, Energetic, Guitar, Male-Clean-Vocals, Male-Melodic-Shouting, Death, Nihilistic Ah... they're back. This album contains elements that are
reminiscent of "Master of Puppets" and "...and Justice for
All", such as long songs and more musical complexity thant what
Metallica have offered since the black album, and added to this
is some of the raw energy of "St. Anger".
"Death Magnetic" is a very varied album with some songs veing
almost Slayer-like while others are groovy and others again
very melodic, and others again contain riffs that remind me of
the Exodus of the 80s. Best of all, Kirk's shreddy solos are
back, which I've certainly missed for many years. "Death
Magnetic" certainly is the best Metallica since "...and Justice
for All". |
