Review title: No stars for this waste of polycarbonate.
Product review: If I could give this a "zero stars" rating I would. Metallica has put out an album that most garage bands would be ashamed of. The sound is absolute crap (is Lars playing a garbage can or a snare?), the lyrics are something a 5th grader could pen, and as for the "edgy, raw emotion" that many reviewers discuss, that's simply a euphemism for "didn't put any effort into the production or recording". James Hetfield has followed the pantheon of musicians who have dried out not just from alcohol, but creatively, after rehab. If you're thinking you're going to hear good music, skillful guitar work (not a single solo on this record) and insightful lyrics, then you will be sorely disappointed. I think they wanted to release an album that no one would WANT to download to get back at Napster fans.
