Is this the final chance for Metallica to redeem themselves for the last few albums, including the abomination of St. Anger?
What do you think the new Metallica album will sound like?

Rick Rubin can produce Slayer, Tom Petty, the Beastie Boys, and Johnny Cash all in the same week and not think twice about it. Not many producers can switch musical genres so effortlessly.
That said, I'm not even sure he can help Metallica at this point. But I'll give it a fair listen, like I always do.Eat Us And Smile

I think it'll be killer.
If they can harness the aggression and sheer riifage of St. Anger and weld it to decent production and spend more time of the structure/melody of the songs, should be a killer.
however, this band has been going 25 years and we still expect "Master of Puppets".
We don't expect the same from other bands that have been going 20+ years.

I would suspect Rick will not produce a piece of shit (like Bob Rock).
Rick is all about getting back to the real sound of the artist...which is why (for instance) Johnny Cash won at least 2 Grammys for Country Album Of The Year with no radio airplay whatsoever....
I trust Rick Rubin to actually do what is right,
I trust Bob Rock to produce a slick, over-polished, light-weight, fluffy piece of shit.

Honestly, I really could care less what the new album sounds like. In my generation, Metallica is way overrated and gets too much credit. But, to satisfy my curiosity, I will give it a listen.Roth Army Militia

No shit people still expect Master Of Puppets, you think they can just keep making bad albums and expect people to buy it cause they feel bad for them? Give me a break, if they can't do it who else can?
And who here doesen't think that CVH could still rock if they reunited? They've been going way longer than Metallica.Comment

I think the key there is, "If they can't who can".
My point is why do we expect it from them?
we don't expect Highway to Hell from AC/DC, "Rocks" from Aerosmith etc
But with Metallica the expectation is so high, bands get old!
