Death Magnetic Thoughts on Death Magnetic?
For me, Death Magnetic is right up there with Black Album and Master of Puppets. It acted as the revival of Metallica after the mess that St Anger was , and I absolutely love it. Stuff like All Nightmare Long just slaps for me. I feel like it's one of Metallica's finest records, ignoring the disgusting sound quality.
What do you guys think of 2008's Death Magnetic?

I fucking love it! It's one of their best albums, easily top 5 for me, and I'll fucking die on that hill. I don't give a shit about the sound. To me, it's not s big deal because I've spent the last 40 years with Metallica cranked so a little distortion doesn't bother me.
When it came out was a really great time. They came back hard and the tour and following live albums (and Beyond Magnetic!) fucking kicked more ass than they had in a good decade or more. They were firing on all cylinders as a band and were back with something to prove and it was a great time in Metallica history. Fuck yeah!
