Free Music Notes for St. Anger
Free Music Review: Abomination
Hit: 1 Stars
I once was the epitome of a Metallica fan. I had every album, a closet full of t-shirts, and seen them live multiple times. I bought this album the day it came out. I listened to it 3 times, each time trying desperately to find something I liked (or at least didn't hate) about it. I realize that bands tastes change and evolve over time, but isn't the goal of this evolution to improve? I stuck with them through Load and Reload, and bought St. Anger on the hope that they would revert to their tried and tested formulas. After all, it is these formulas that gave Metallica's music the sound and complexity that fans fell in love with. Why would you abandon the sound that made you great and your fans along with it, for something with the complexity of a paint by numbers picture that sounds like it was recorded between the Buick and the trash cans in Grandma's garage? I don't know what else to say. "All this I cannot bear to witness any longer." Suffice to say I will never buy another Metallica album on faith again.
-A jaded Metallica fan
St. Anger Poster
Never underestimate the regenerative powers of Metallica. Following the stripped-down Load and Re-Load, they've returned to the raw, vitriolic savagery of their earlier canon, using 1984's Ride the Lightning as a template for St. Anger. The title track provides the psychic lynchpin of the album by combining the bombast and defiance of the band's earliest high-water marks with more deliberate lyrics and emotional nakedness. Equally cathartic is "Some Kind of Monster," a lumbering beast of a song that declares, "This is the voice of silence no more." Despite that claim, there's an economy to these lyrics; James Hetfield's raw-toothed growl only occasionally punctuates the menacing soundscapes. In fact, "Dirty Windows," the standout track here, is a shimmering five-minute instrumental that's free of the baroque trappings that sometimes clutter the Metallica landscape. --Jaan UhelszkiAlso included is a bonus DVD featuring a down n' dirty live-in-the-studio performance of every track on the album. Never before has an artist designated a live DVD performance of a new album to simultaneously accompany its new studio release. CD produced by Bob Rock.
