what are your honest thoughts on this album?
Cover looks like someone took a massive dump on it. Music reflects that feel.
>>128565875Luck...runs....out
>>128565886in my school a lot of folks had Death Magnetic glued over their folders so it was seen as cool at the timewould actually still say it's a great cover because it was done pre-AI, now people would claim is AI (like they do with the 72 Seasons cover)
inoffensively mediocresome decent thrash moments but also cliche uninspired radio rock riffs and that ballad was so cornyI see it as more of a redemption album from st anger and not much else desu
>>128565875It's the last gasp of Metallica as a musical force to be reckoned with, though the songs are too long and the production is ass. To put it simply, while Death Magnetic is not very good, it is not a steaming heap of absolute shit like Hardwired To Fuck and 72 Penises.
IMMOLATION
>>128565886
>>128565912Yeah, I was in middle school when it came out, and people thought All Nightmare Long was cool. Nowadays, though, no one cares about this album, not even Metallica fans. It's just so mid that it can't even be remembered by most people. They should just have ended the band after St. Anger.>>128565935St. Anger is terrible shit, but at least it was the last time they tried to do something different and original (for them). They just lacked the creative resources to make a good album, but if you listen closely, you could imagine something like All Within My Hands being a great song with the right production and tweaks done to the structure of the song. With Death Magnetic and post-DM albums, you can just straight up hear the boredom and lazyness... just putting out shit into the world to get more money and maybe to not dissapoint fans. It's sad to see a classic band become so washed, and essentially turn into everything they hated back in the 80s.
72 Seasonings isn't as bad as people say it is. It's much worse.
>>128565875
>>128565875Horrible mastering but some great tracks, I more like that dislike it and overall it ain't bad, it's just that Hardwired and 72 seasons feel fresher less pretentious to their 1980s records.
Haven't gotten to it yet. While on the subject of 'tallica, though, I listened to "St. Anger" today and it's just as good compositionally as their other post-black-album records except it's them adorably trying to sound like Slipknot.
>>128567243More like them trying to sound like Corrosion of Conformity, Kyuss, Crowbar and Korn.
>>128565875terrible production but has a some decent songsprobably the best metallica album after the first 4
>>128565875It's probably Metallica's best album. It is much better than Reload. It isn't as good as Load. Metallica have many albums. I have a small lemon tree in my garden.
>>128565875Guitar Hero version is fine.
>>128567961May fortune favor your lemon tree
>>128567961Don't let those badgers and turkeys get to your lemons.
Severely underrated for no reason at all as seen with>>128565935>>128565959>>128566014>>128567162>>128567592>>128568139These are the same people that complain 72 seasons
>>128568435I will remain vigilant. No turkey and/or badger will claim ill-gotten lemony goodness on my watch.
>>12856622072 sounds like AI generated Metallica songs
>>128565875redundant slop
>>128565875It was actually a great album, I enjoyed it more than Justice, but not more than the Black Album. Hardwired was meh. 72 Seasons is the worst thing they've done by virtue of being made with no effort or personality.
>>128566014>All Within My HandsLiterally just *listens to SOAD once*
>>128565875it's too long but it's midtallica's best album that doesn't involve Lou Reed. ride the lightning+and justice each have one good song (for whom and one even though one's sound is really bad and covers/lives are better) master of puppets and kill have none total midslop. black album has enter sandman, load-reload has fuel, and st. anger has a cool title track, maybe more too but they're also annoying.death magnetic has all nightmare long and my apocalypse, that's 1 more song worthy of adding to your collection than all the other midtallica albums, which makes it their best album like it or not.>>128568970ai would have more soul
Ripping farts, running snot
>>128570007James' screams in the end are more like Michael Gira's... lolKILKILKILKILKIL
>>128565935This checks out.
>>128565875I like the art, but not the music
>>128565875Unforgiven 3 is the best Metallica song
>>128565875horrible horrible horrible album. their worst, way worse than st. anger.
Not once in my entire life I complained about 72 seasons or hardwired, I've always liked these two records since literally day 1 and I still do.
>>128565875>listening to metallica after justicelollmao even
Suicide & Redemption is their best instrumental song.
>>128577360>not enjoying MY LIFESTYLE
>>128577360>justice>goodcringe!
