All Nightmare Long is a badass track...

[Marcel]

Yep agreed, the first one sounds kinda like "one", with the clean intro and the fast riffs at the end.

[Heinz]

Yeah some cool ****, going early and missing some of my morning class to get a copy on the 12th

[Crunch]

If you know where to look, you can find the whole album leaked somewhere in the interwebz.....

[Gnomey]

It is in many places. Some idiot sold it in France last week (actual copies of it). Really liking the new album it is so much better than St Anger.

[Heinz]

Well yeah its actually been produced properly so it will be massively better.

The song structure themselves are ok, still not as smooth as Metallica once was but hey its more metal than we have seen in the last 12years since Load.

I really like Load for the record but looking at in a different genre all together.

[B-17engineer]

Sweet!

Metallica isn't one of my favorites but they still have some darn good songs

[Aggie08]

The album is pretty good, but I can't stand the drums. It sounds like Lars is banging on a tin can every half second and the drums don't match the rest of the instruments at all. Saint Anger was really bad about it, this one seems a little better.

[Heinz]

Yeah? The snare sounds tuned to me. Theres always a bit of hollow sound, if there wasnt those sort of dynamics we'd be hearing And Justice style production. They recorded the first few albums in a different parts these days they tend to record in a more garage style, suits them well.

Also if its the 'streamed' versions your hearing the quality will vary massively compared to the CD disc.

[Aggie08]

Nah, I've got the CD version. Maybe it's all done well, it's just not my thing. I like the album overall though.

[Heinz]

Ah righto man, I just got it too

[Aggie08]

I heard "cyanide" at ozzfest a month ago, that pretty much predetermined that this album would rock

[Erich]

yes think live versions would set the pace, not wild at all about this new release from the studio ...... sorry aces

[Heinz]

I gotta be honest Cyanide to me is not a great song. Structure is horrible.

I won't have a solid opinion about this album until I give it a few more listens.
