I wiped my ipod this week, and I'm looking to fill it back up again. Haven't got much on there right now, it mostly consists of Anthrax, Clutch, Hed PE, and Shadows Fall. Not quite as much variety as I'd like yet.

The man. The myth. The legend.

new metallica album - death magnetic

everything about how much of a bunch of a whiny bitches they are aside (and they are an epic bunch of whiny bitches),  this is a great album.  Easily their best since The Black Album.

that's not saying much

I've heard one song from the new album once and I too have to admit it sounds like metal again...but I need to hear more before I have any opinion.  one thing is true, I won't give them any of my money for any reason ever, so it may be a while before I listen to it

I don't know the Black album while not their best was a nice little mainstream metal album though they should be shot for Enter Sand Man.

Listened to the new Metallica twice today and I was really surprised how well done the new cd is. Def. has the old sound. Alittle meh on vocals at times and lyrically from what I heard, but musically its pretty damn good. Def. best CD since Black...leaps and bounds better.  :yay
