My Apocalypse wasn't all that bad. Definitely their best so far. Sounds a lot more thrashy although nothing like RTL/Kill Em All.
But still, i liked it!

Just listened to the 1st single "The Day that never comes", and I liked it.their best song for almost 18 years....
it actually sounds like old Metallica songs put together but it's still pretty good

Listening to this latest batch I am struck by the notion that despite the odd foray into speed, Metallica are a frustrated NWOBHM band and now and again they reach those aspirations.

I've heard Cyanide. Not too impressed with the first verse, or the "suicide" part of the chorus. But the riff is pretty damn good. Overall, it's alot better than the single and alot better than most of the songs from St. Anger. I'm likin' it so far. I'll check My Apocalypse soon.

Change it to the Black Album and a few more listens and i may agree with you!

My Apocalypse is the first thrash sounding song I've heard them do in years. It kicks ass. I hope the rest of the album has songs that will equal to this one.

Not sure if this is the best thread for this.
Has anyone heard the track "My Apocalypse" off the new album?
It's the best thing they've done in a long time, in my opinion.
You can find it on YouTube if you want to listen.
Sounds the closest they've been to thrash since the late 80's.

What does everyone else think about it?

Edit: Thanks for moving the thread, boo boo.

Amen to that. Just listened to that album a few minutes ago, actually.
