I've never actually heard "St. Anger", (as I don't listen to much thrash except for Sodom) but one reviewer called it "Metallica's midlife crisis"...

Considering that America has a population second only to India and China, the amount of utter shit that the country thrives upon is sickening.

I think the lack of good metal from the USA might have something to do with the genre's "satanic" image, which it owes to Black Sabbath, Venom and Mercyful Fate.

The first time I heard it, I mistook it for Linkin Park.

That should probably tell you enough.

Tsk, as if i was left out of the metalhead usergroup. Pfah.

It's funny how bands that giving inspiration to new bands end up sounding like ther inspired bands. Limp Bizkit are blatant Cypress Hill clones then Cypress Hill's last album ended up sounding exactly like Limp Bizkit. The same with Metallica. It's a shame.

Add me to the Planet Mosh Forum if it happens.
