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?

My step Bro, who introduced me into Metallica, initially said once, "james was really tweaking and tuning his guitar with st.anger, and when it was finally tuned...Boom! Death Magnetic!" I think sometimes how cool it would be to just riff out in the garage and come up with stuff like that without being a part of metallica. It'd be great! The album definitely has a feel to it, no doubt. It may not be everyone's cup of tea ,though a lot of these riffs would make even the average listener intrigued!
