The more of these corny videos I see, surprisingly the more interested I get. Good to see his voice get a bit more raspy, not such a "Texas Barbecue Rocker" sound to it.

It dosen't matter what Metallica do, it's still awfull to you. I don't get it. Hey c'moon it's only name. For example is God Hates Us All better name than Death Magnetic? Yes, the most of songs of the last two albums has been not so good but I really think that this will be best 'tallica album since And Justice. So, let's wait, and see.

Who chose the name, a 13 years old teenager full of angst but with a huge lack of imagination ? Or maybe it was Lars, yeah must be him, he's so tard and gay...Silence, I kill you !!

^ nvm that post, herd the "demo's" and that song "inu" is not even metallica

It's the band Eternal Decision. Eternal Decision is an American Christian thrash metal band. Musically the band blends Pantera influenced riffs, with a mix of James Hetfield/Phil Anselmo styled vocals. In 1997
Mainly due to the similarities in vocal style, the group is often mistaken for Metallica. The song Hunger from the self titled debut received many downloads on Napster due to the fact that many people falsely believed it to be a new unreleased Metallica song or a collaboration between Megadeth and Metallica.

Their you go, Post 17, that was not metallica you herd.

I think from the numerous amount of corny videos like these its safe to say its not going to be another saint anger, or even a load or reload. they keep saying they want to go back and revisit some of the classic sounds of ride the lightning or master of puppets or whatever, but i doubt it will ever top them.

but i do agree they still will be a favorite band. i just pray the come to Aus after this haha.

To post 25 - I know - I made the same mistake once...it is uncanny how much Eternal Decision sounds like Metallica...haha. ED is a Christian metal band. Very good, but not Metallica. I once thought, I didn't know Metallica had a new song...

Megadeth I believe is one band not mentioned rounding the 25 year marker and still kicking some ass. There were a few less than spectacular albums in between here and there but it shows how much Mustaine likes to switch things up a bit
