THANK GOD!!!!
A lot of people out there blame Metallica for going soft, but I doubt they realize how much influence a person like Bob Rock has with their position. It's their job to push the envelope, and force the band to try/do things they normally wouldn't think of. Ever since day 1 with 'Bob', it's been a whole other band.
Granted, I do like some of the stuff they made with Bob, except for that last CD... what was it again? Saint Anger?
I listened to it ONE time and I'm STILL pissed about losing my $15. Not one single good song.... all suck-ass garbage.
Lets all pray that they start moving in a forward direction again....
