Presto-digitation Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 No wah in the solo. Rejoice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Pure thrash without delving into a thousand riffs, melodic outros, or proggy changes. Simple and effective.Yep! Pure is a great word to describe it. Vibe is intense and Hetfield is snarling.Does he do a "YEAH-YEAH"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) I like it but don't know how they have 80 minutes of music with solos that long. More Kirk!!!My thoughts are a bit different. I didn't think the song needed a solo, especially that solo. Weakest part of the song. It's a throwaway. Anybody else concur? Disembodied Spirit beat me to it!

Stormtron Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I like it a lot. KEA is my favorite Metallica album and I've always wanted them to get back to some more succinct songs. Is this their shortest song since Motorbreath? The artwork sucks though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow...never heard this level of praise before for DM!When I first heard it I listened to it from beginning to end and just sat there sorta stunned.

Xanadoood Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Yeah it's ok. But I still think they are reaching. Like they are trying too hard.. Maybe I'm just over them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Duio Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I loved the new song, and Lords of Summer was pretty good, too. It reminds me of something Anthrax would do, it's pretty good especially for *new* Metallica! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the production has a sort of so burnt it fits kind of vibe, like Vapor Trails. Better than any release post Justice. I would rank it maybe...third? 1. Justice2. Puppets3. DM But I like everything they've done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Remember, they haven't released an album in 8 years. 8 years. 80 minutes of music is not something to be concerned about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Yeah it's ok. But I still think they are reaching. Like they are trying too hard.. Maybe I'm just over them careful, you'll make middle-aged men cry with that sort of talk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think the song needed a solo, especially that solo. Weakest part of the song. It's a throwaway. Anybody else concur?IMO, soloing is cliche and over rated. It's not a necessary part of a song and it's often just put in out of bad habit and forced. If it flows with the song or the song properly and melodically builds to it (stairway to heaven I know, hangs head in shame) then all the better. But if it's awkward and forced like Love Gun. .

treeduck Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 These guys have forgotten how to write songs. Not just good songs, any songs! That's why they take about 8 years to write an album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
