I almost feel bad for them, though, because no matter what they do these days, it's never going to be good enough. If they revisit their old sound, they're accused of exploiting their past. If they try something new, they'll catch a shitstorm for trying something new.</P> <P>Are they really relevant enough still to be held to such a high standard?</P> I can’t say I’m a huge Metallica fan, but I like some of their stuff. I almost feel bad for them, though, because no matter what they do these days, it’s never going to be good enough. If they revisit their old sound, they’re accused of exploiting their past. If they try something new, they’ll catch a shitstorm for trying something new.

Are they really relevant enough still to be held to such a high standard?

Rick Rubin did his part by trying to recapture the 'Garage Days' tone, but failed with the vibe, but that could be the label's fault, or Lars. Probably Lars. Not great, but if they'd only just hand it over to good old Flemming Rasmussen to add that sweet ass Scandinavian reverb from the depths of hell it would be listenable. A for effort, but time to hang it up. You know you have problems when I'd rather listen to the Sword than this.</p> much better than I expected.
