Review title: Trying to keep up with the times...
Product review: Compairing this album to other bands that are coming out today this is a good record. But by Metallica standards this album is horrible. The band has lost there golden touch. The druming has an over-bearing feel and it seems to be mis-directed. The bass lines, are hard to make out. I don't however think that James Headfield's voice is still going fine, I saw them live in July and he sounded better than ever. I also can understand why there aren't any guitar solo's - because they want to be more current with the music today. While listening to this record you can tell that Metallica is trying to fit in with the new-style bands that don't usually do flashy guitar stuff.I think we all want our old Metallica back... this band needs to realize that they can't just stop and try to become more modern in there outlook they have to keep the formula that made them great... this album is sad.
