Been a big fan since RIDE THE LIGHTNING - really appreciate the creativity, honesty & integrity they've shown throughout their career, and looking forward to new stuff whenever it comes - Metallica has always maintained standards a lot of artists don't even recognize as existing, let alone as desirable - they'll probably never again acheive the level of success that the Black Album had, but then again, they'll probably never be appearing at a State Fair or amusement park near you, either.

They spent the majority of their early career ripping off anybody they could find (Dave Mustaine, Exodus, Motorhead, Black Sabbath, Diamond Head, Venom, etcetcetc), then spent the rest selling out over and over again. The only album not guilty of either of these categorizations is ...And Justice for All, but even that album suffers from a bad production job (bothers most, but not me that much).

Second best band ever (after Black Sabbath, of course.) While their newer stuff isn't as good as their old stuff, and I would give anything for them to go back to their old stuff, their is not one of their albums I don't like; I'm still a huge fan. This new album is going to rock.

RIAA whores and they do it because their records don't sell anymore because their records suck. when you can't sell crappy records then you need to start sueing the audience. it's a conundrum. Metallica serves imperialism.

Metallica is awesome, at least on their older albums.

Their old stuff is simply awesome, while the new stuff really leaves a lot to be desired. Should have changed their name with St. Anger.

I liked everything from Black album and before. Anything after that was a big disappointment!

They are a skilled rock ensemble, who know how to make their fans happy. They should do more guitar solos though.

Older stuff is good: fast, furious, powerful.
Newer stuff: somewhat bland.
Just my opinion.
The orchestra thing was a mistake, too.
