The new Metallica Album "ST. ANGER " will be out shortly. Have any of the songs been pre-released or leaked? I'd love to here the new sound with Rob Trujillo on Bass.

There have been no REAL and TRUE pre-releases on leaked songs. I heard from a "friend" of mine that the file-sharing communities have songs listed as being Metallica from the new album, but all they are is songs recorded by other lesser known bands that SOUND like Metallica. The buzz on the new album is that it's a throwback to what they guys do best, and that's kick your ass with 7 minute hard driving metal with tempo changes and brutal beats. Kind of like Justice meets Master meets Lightning meets Kill 'Em All, all put together, and then poked in the eye to make it more pissed off so it REALLY kicks your ass. I, for one, cannot wait for this.

i hope its like what is described in this prophecy
Late at night, all systems go, you've come to see the show
We do our best, you're the rest, you make it real, you know

There is a feeling deep inside that drives you fvcking mad
A feeling of a hammerhead, you need it oh so bad

Bang your head against the stage like you never did before
Make it ring, make it bleed, make it really sore

In a frenzied madness with your leather and your spikes
Heads are bobbing all around, it's hot as hell tonight

Here onstage the Marshall noise is piercing through your ears
It kicks your ass, kicks your face, exploding feeling nears

Now's the time to let it rip, to let it fvcking loose
We're gathered here to be with you 'cause this is what we choose

The show is through, the metal's gone, it's time to hit the road
Another town, another gig, again we will explode

Hotel rooms and motorways, life out here is raw
But we'll never stop, we'll never quit, 'cause we're Metallica

Correct. The only songs that are "real" are bootleg versions of Frantic and St. Anger that someone recorded from one of the four Filmore shows 'tallica did last week. St. Anger (the song) will be "released" via radio and mtv/2 tomorrow (Tuesday). Starting at noon I think mtv2 is playing the video every hour on the hour until like 10pm or 11pm when it will premiere on mtv.

EDIT: BTW, from the clips I've heard it is heavy and fast, but it doesn't sound like the old sh*t. It's raw, stripped down and sounds like nothing they've done before.

As stated, the only leaks are "Frantic" and the title track live from the Fillmore. The rest are bogus. From what I've heard, it sounds better than Load or Reload, but it is NOT their old stuff. It has a nu-metal sound to it, but its not nu-metal. It's not bad. I am probably going to be buying the album when it comes out, and I'm seeing them in concert on July 5th.

Didn't Bob Rock play the bass for all the songs on the new album?
He subbed in for him so they could write songs and such before they had an offical bassist.

Anything is better than Load of sh*t or Re-Load of sh*t.

Okay, I grabbed a super crappy (56kb) of St. Anger (song) and, wow, is all I have to say. It's fast. It's raw, really, really raw (of course part of that is the craptacular quality of the mp3). And it's straight foward and brutal. it's not like the old sh(t. It's not like the new sh*t. It's new, new sh(t. It's a bit on the repitive side (almost like a 3:30 song played 2x) but it, IMO, it worx. And the vibe... the vibe just kicks yer ass.

I'm soooo looking forward to the album and to screaming along when I see them live on July 26th.

I heard on the radio tonight that they will be playing the new single (Frantic, I assume) at 9am this morning... so, 5 1/2 hours from now. As far as I know, that and the other two live tracks are all that's been leaked.

Not that I know of, just some samples. I liked the song they played at the end of the MTV Icon: Metallica thing.

update:

I just grabbed a much better quality rip (from the 'tallica forums which is where I got the last one) although it's incomplete ('bout 2 minutes 2 short). The guitar crunch reminds me of the old days, but sonicly that's about it. James vioce is much more "forward" in the mix than in the past and Lars' drums have like zereo compression on them Very odd to hear such "naked" drums but very cool, IMO, as well.

At first the song seems a bit disjointed but the more you listen to it the more it comes together.

Hehe it's 3 am and I'm starting a new job in, ohhh... 6hrs but I just can't stop listening to St. Anger.

Well, this is going to be the longest 2wks of my life. :)

St. Anger is now officially the new single for their upcoming cd.

I have pretty decent rip of it here (unless AT effect kills it)

......save target as.....
