Oy.

Now they want to be a comedy act.

There's a reason there's only ONE mic on stage boys!!

Holy fuck! Like many people, I never paid attention to Metallica after the black album. This doesn't mean that I never saw Hetfield after that, but still, he looks old in this video! And what the hell is up with all those tattoos in his arms? It's the first time I noticed that...

The song itself is ok, definitely their best stuff since The Black Album, but James' voice is just terrible. Thrash metal and country singing do not combine well ...

Perhaps they should have turned the distortion down a bit and tried to do Southern Rock rather than "country metal"? :lol:

Or hire a proper singer for a change ...

I didn't say I care; I said it was different from what I had seen last time.

This new song sounds very poor to me.

I like it. There is nothing about James' singing that would irritate me. Unless the shout-out part about "the end". I feel like Metallica is trapped within the nu-metal fashion. The new song's concept is written for a nu-metal "look-at-me-I-am-the-most-angry-child" bawling singer. But I can still hear Metallica there. No matter what will happen, I am condemned to like everything what Metallica works out.

There is nothing about this band that DOESN'T irritate me.
