When #Metallica's #StAnger dropped, I almost immediately brushed them off as has-beens trying desperately returning to their thrash roots, which I've never liked. I was always more of a Ride-the-Lightning-guy more than a Kill-em-all-guy.
But the other day I played #HardwiredToSelfDestruct and was positively surprised, so much that I'm today popping #DeathMagnetic.
They are still very thrash-y, but there's _something_ there I enjoy.
We'll see if St. Anger gets another chance in the future.

And while #SpitOutTheBone is blasting, time for a verdict on #HardwiredToSelfDestruct.
This is a difficult one, because it features really great bangers but also some rather flat songs...
I'd give it 3,5 out of 5, which means good album. But it's close to a 4.
1. Master 4,5
2. DM 4
3. Black 4
4. Lightning 4
5. Hardwired 3,5
6. Kill 3,5
7. Anger 3,5
8. Reload 2,5
9. Justice 2
10. Load 2
I guess that's a rather controversial list so far?
