Mission Metallica..

[Danish Moo Cow]

Rick Rubin did Timberlake's album. All these producers are interchangable. Metallica just needed a new way to get their ideas out and Rick's a fantastic choice. You can balance out Ruben's latest work with Slayer last album too.

Wow that surprises me. When I think of Rubin, I think of some of the finest Slayer CD's.

Its awesome that the name is back in the shape it should be!

 

[Eelectrica]

If the CD doesn't live up to the hype, or come close to it, they're done. Not too many fans will trust them again.

Release date of Sep 12 has been announced.

That unforgiven III has me a little worried, I dont think they should have went ahead and done the 2nd, have to wait and see I guess.

Agree, although I didn't mind the second one. I don't know if it's been mentioned, but the album was announced as Downloadable Content for Guitar Hero World Tour. Hopefully that's an indication of some good guitar work.

I'm not expecting much to be honest. I reckon they'll really try and make it a little heavier, but its just not going to be the same.

You would hope so, but Sonic Youth, AFI, Coldplay and No Doubt have all found their way into Guitar Hero.

The day that never comes is the first single due out hopefully by the end of the month..

I didn't mind Unforgiven II so am interested what they have done with a third one.

Cyanide:

Some cool riffs, but the structure is a little too Stanger for my liking. The good news, everyone who's had an early listen to the album have unanimously called it the weakest song on the album. And that was weeks ago.

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

The Judas Kiss, wonder if they've been listening to a lot of 'Preist recently?!

 

[sydraider]

Well Portnoy is hoping its a good one....

What a month for music releases next month is going to be -

Iced Earth - The Crucible of man (Something Wicked Pt 2)
Dream Theater Live DVD/CD set (Yes another one )

Think I'm looking forward to Iced Earth the most.

 

[sydraider]

Matt Barlow is back for the new CD so it should be OK.

I think Tim Owens was a bit hit and miss as a singer on the last two CD's, but they still seem to come up with something unique. Like the songs dealing with Gettysburgh. I love that series of songs with the orchestra and everything backing up the band, adding something to it.

Overall though I've still enjoyed their last few CD's.

Even Horror Show which I know had mixed reviews.

 

[sydraider]

Sounds good. ill check it out, thanks Eel.

They just played a new Metallica song on JJJ, i didn't catch the name..

Starts of slow and picks up to a good tempo..

I am not sure what to make of it.. Certianly didn't have an old school metallica sound, if you take away james voice it reminded me somewhat of an old Anthrax sound and feel.

Not bad for a first listen and certainly a much better sound then St Anger.
