Review title: The music really is good...
Product review: The music written for St. Anger is absolutely fine. The lyrics aren't supposed to be good. The singing isn't supposed to be perfect. The music is supposed to be fast and not very complicated. It is an angry album, and that's ok. Some of the songs on here are absolutely perfect......except the production just kills it all. The drums, man...the drums! Why the bad drum sound? What made them think that this sound would be ok? It is very unfortunate. Frantic, Sweet Amber, Purify, All Within My Hands...all of these would be great metal songs, but the drum sound completely ruins it. The DVD is much easier for me to listen to, because the drums there sound like they're supposed to.The lack of solos is a minor gripe I have. You can pinpoint in both Sweet Amber and Purify exactly where a guitar solo should be. But this pales in comparison to my complaint about the drumming. This could have been a 4-star album for me, but instead it gets a 2 for being very badly produced good music.
