Unfortunately, St. Anger sucks!
They were on the top of their game 10-15 years ago...not any more. Gone is technical virtuosity, gone are intelligent lyrics...what is left is "flavour of the week" wannabe-Nü Metal sound that was already dated before this album was made.
Acidentally, this album reminded me as bad copy of one I have in my collection: the much underrated "From Strength to Strength" by "B-Thong"... that CD is everything "St. Anger" should be. Of course, Metallica has enormous market-inertia and considering their new "brain dead" -style they'll just get even more rooted in wide masses...
What was once very innovative quality band has become something else...it was bound to happend but i hoped they would have more self-criticism to prevent this sort of crap.
On the other hand, they'll probably still earn heaps of money... so will Brian Adams and Shakira... :/
