Query: Taking Nu Metal to a Nu Level

Well, I got caught up in the huge amounts of hype in this album and bought it the day of it's release. I had visions in my head of a return to the "Master of Puppets" and "Ride the Lightning" sound that defined Metallica as masters of speed metal. Instead, the result is an album that features absolutely horrible sound quality, vocals that don't even remotely sound angry and very poor lyrics such as "tick tick tick tick tock" and "St. Anger don't get no respect." The drum riffs are lackluster beyond belief and the guitar leads are dissappinting. The effects on the rhythm guitars sound like second-hand fuzz-boxes with a short-circut and the overall production is horrid. Hetfield's vocals come off sounding like the wails of a pre-pubescent boy rather than the screams of an angry grown man and Lars seems to have forgotten what a heavy metal drummer sounds like. The only thing Metallica should be angry about is how dissappointing this grossly over-hyped album actually is.
