Let’s face it. Metallica will never be what they once were….but I feel this is about as good as they’re going to get in terms of their age. They still got it. I’ve been listening to tracks off of this album, and Lars is amazing, Hetfield is amazing. This album is great. The title track is astounding. What’s amazing me most about James Hetfield is how he’s managed to hold up vocally for over 40 years and still sound very strong and tight with his vocals. Even stretching out a bit by harmonizing on one of the tracks. The whole band is amazing. 72 seasons is letting Metallica’s fans know that despite their age, they aren’t going anywhere yet.
