this is my problem with user reviews. it is either ***** and fantasic!!! or * this sucks!!!!!!!!!!11111111111

at least at head-fi the reviewers have some perspective.

it looked like one guy had some serious reservations about the album but still gave it 4/5 stars.

Has anyone found a store where they'll let you buy all four colors at once? Amazon.com?

yeah! and the bass is mixed so low you can't hear sh!t. The other problem is the god damned snare. ping! ping!

The album has several other problems (terrible lyrics, off key singing etc..) BUT a few tracks do really rock out. I'd give it 3/5 stars.

I honestly didn't know it came in more than one color...you could buy the 3 available at the one store then try and find the 4th somewhere else?

On the bright side the DVD is rather cool. It's pretty fun watching them rock out on a soundstage and seeing Lars get sweatier and redder with each song, I didn't think the guy would survive the way he looked after a couple songs. The DVD versions of the songs are a bit different from the CD and for most songs I prefer the DVD version. Sound quality also seems a bit better with the DVD but with this type of music it's kinda hard to tell.

Now my poor computer feels violated. A friend came up to use my computer to rip his new CD. Used my ripper and cool DVD drive and got himself some nice 320kbps songs. Then I came back and said "What?" hit the del key and that was that. He copied the music over the network first.

He thinks its hot stuff. I'll give one track a listen. Though from what you guys say I think I'm gonna be regreting it.

Actually, yes. "Unnamed Feeling" has a pretty cool chorus and it's a decent song I think. Not the best that Metallica's done but there are songs on every one of their albums other than "Master of Puppets" that are far worse. "All Within My Hands" ain't bad either and I'm getting to like it. But that's about it. The rest of the CD I can only listen to as background music, and even then some of the stuff is painful.
