Review title: No longer "The Thinking Man's Metal"
Product review: I understand that Metallica has always been about the evolution of their sound, but this sounds more like a few steps back. As one reviewer put it, you can listen to this CD and it might sound like one long jam session. There are no cool intros, no catchy riffs, and not a single guitar solo. I would say that the newest Godsmack CD displays more progress and polish than this album, and those guys have no where near the talent that the 'tallica boys have. Nowhere. I am only 21, and didn't witness the rise of Metallica first-hand, but I miss the emotion and skill displayed in the first five albums. Those were the albums that blew you away, like listening to Van Halen. I still love Metallica, but I expect much more. Oh well, at least we have Garage Inc to listen to.
