“If this is their 9th studio album, where does it rank?”
DEATH MAGNETIC, the Rick Rubin produced 9th studio album from Bay Area metal titans METALLICA (and the first studio album featuring Robert Trujillo on bass) is chock full of riffs, tons of ugly chords, a boatload of guitar solos, and loads of twin guitar harmonies that harken back to the thrash metal veterans legendary 80’s output, with a sound that is a true return to their original thrash form which could have easily placed this album being released right after …AJFA. They brought back all of the classic elements (including their iconic logo!) that made METALLICA awesome to begin with and more than made up for their “Angry Loads” era.
Remember to always send back the “medium rare chicken tenders” and if you’re using a ride share, make sure to be hammered on at least one part of the journey.
JOIN US for a brief review of a recent local metal show featuring Atlanta’s own Embering Effigy at Sweetwater Live in Duluth (as well as a summary of the “aftermath” that followed), remember that “the Loads of Anger” are always at the bottom, and behold the victors of “The Loudness Wars” with METALLICA’s 2008 return to their thrash metal roots, DEATH MAGNETIC.
