XD45 7,124 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) I'll be damned. Metallica made an album that doesn't suck. I haven't liked anything they've done since Black. But I like this one. Edited February 18, 2017 by Darth Saigus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I've heard 'Atlas Rise' on the radio once or twice, that was it. Since you bring it up on a positive note I'm currently listening to the album on YouTube. So far not too bad... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 7,071 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Tracks 8, 9 and 10 suck Halo On Fire Dream No More Murder One The rest is tolerable, a couple even come close to rocking. Surprising, cause after the last few pitiful attempts I gave up even bothering to listen to their new stuff. Do your self a favor and don't watch their lame assed videos.

patriot 7,197 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Good album. Just listened to it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
montec 164 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I can't bring myself to listen anymore since Napster. Strange is I barely downloaded but friends did and I heard so much more music and went out to buy albums. I viewed it like radio, listen find out if you like and then support by buying. I do the same with youtube and spotify. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

patriot 7,197 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) They were protecting their intellectual property. Lars was a dick about it, but they were right and Napster was wrong. It's that simple. Let's see you produce something that's worth millions, and have someone give it away for free. You'd be pissed too, and rightfully so. Thou Shalt Not Steal. ...let the crying begin... Now, about the album. Hard wired has some great tracks, and some okay tracks. It's not Master of Puppets, that's for sure, but it's good stuff. Edited February 18, 2017 by patriot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saltydecimator 482 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 i liked death magnetic, that was all pretty solid. im not an OG metallica fan, more megadeth (old megadeth) new stuff is like metallica, looooolz! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XD45 7,124 Posted February 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) I don't usually love a song the first time I hear it. It happens but it's rare. Sad But True is one I instantly loved. But if I think a song is "pretty good" the first time I hear it I will often come to love it after hearing it a few more times. Most of the songs on Hardwired I've only heard once. But it was clear this album is better than the last 20 years of crap. I had put Metallica in the category of has-beens that just limp along making money off their old stuff and their old fans and would never do anything new that's not a joke. This album proves they still have the desire and ability to make something worthwhile. It's not Master of Puppets. (Nothing is MOP except MOP.) But it's not a joke.

Sdustin 578 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 "And justice for all" is imo the best album ever made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patriot 7,197 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) MUYA is pretty good too. Some great riffs on that one. It was renamed Kill 'em All Edited February 18, 2017 by patriot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HB of CJ 1,263 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I prefer classical music. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaddis 1,689 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 I'd have to say that (considering all the tracks on the album) that "Ride The Lightning" is probably Metallica's best work so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, then did you not ever record music off the radio? Make mix tapes? Make custom mp3 disks off your own collection? If you did, did you ever give those to a friend? Did I Say I downloaded without every buying an album or concert tickets? No I didnt. The musicians that embraced the internet and how things changed is who i listen to. Same thing goes for the NRA. I will not support the FUDDS, reason i like GOA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
