I can’t believe some people get so pissed of by other people’s opinions. Grow the fuck up!

I really don’t see you guys posting videos of your awesome drum skills..

It’s easy to talk about Lars behind your keyboard.

Have we forgotten about what Metallica has put out overall. I think the positives outweigh the negatives. Until you put out an album that has sold 16 million+ albums (just one album please), then maybe you can talk about Lar’s horrible drum playing. But until then, put up or shut the fuck up.

[...] Plus, the dude is sickly talented behind the kit, in stark contrast to what some of you had to say about Metallica’s current drummer. [...]

Yeah they just gotta put the guitars down, and walk away. Oh wait they should have done that in 1992.

They should write an album about hating each other that might actually kick some ass! Anyways when do bands write relevant material some 15 years after they peak. As any act knowing the success of Metallica you just tour on your hits forever. SAD BUT TRUE!

Is it just me, or does the band look like they all still hate each other?

What a boring, boring track. Everyone’s said it well already: Metallica is a turd band this day in age, and these riffs were neat decades ago.

I guess thrash metal will go out not with a bang, but with a whimper.

Woulda been nice to hear even a portion of a new track, now that would’ve been news-worthy..

it’s a rehearsal guys, james doesn’t sing in any moment and even sips some coffee. They don’t take it that seriously and you shouldn’t, too. Is not like they have to nail the song like their lives depended on it. Probably they will kick your asses live when they want to. I expect the new album to be just a good album, not the most metal album ever done or something like that. Just a plain good album.

A.) How many rehearsal studios have you seen? In every band I’ve been in I’ve managed to cut my nipple on the drummer’s cymbal. That room is fucking HUGE.

B.) Lars Ulrich has to be one of the most pedestrian drummers EVAR.

C.) Considering the band has been playing this song for over two decades, goddammit do they SUCK at playing this song. I’ve seen high school cover bands do more stirring renditions. This was embarrassing.

D.) I don’t care what anyone says, I friggin’ HATE Robert Trujillo. This guy is an idiot. He’s not a great bass player, he’s annoying to watch/look at and he’s exactly what Metallica DIDN’T need in a bass player.

E.) As much as I hope the new album doesn’t completely suck every time I see/hear Metallica I feel like there’s no way the new album COULDN’T suck. These four people are so NOT Metal it’s absurd.

On the one hand I trust Rubin’s instincts. On the other hand, unless he walked in, punched each band member repeatedly and shouted, “You guys are a bunch of TWATS who wouldn’t know decent music if it SHAT on you!” there’s really no hope.

Do they really need to rehearse a song they’ve played something like 3,000 times?
