Apologies beforehand if this has already been started. I've been vacationing and haven't visited or posted since August. I didn't see it on the front page anyways.
This debuts at #22 on Billboard's Rock radio chart, even ahead of the #24 debut of My Apocalypse. Metallica's FOURTH top thirty hit of the summer, and third from Death Magnetic before it was even released.
After getting the CD yesterday and listening to it twice, so far Cyanide is my favorite track and single. Not their best effort, but a pretty solid disc with only a few misfires in my opinion. It's already turning into a mini-greatest hits album.

11 days of wake and bake in California with no phones or internet. Recommended for everyone! I'm still not really "back" if you know what I mean.

My least favorite is The Unforgiven III. For only the second time I've heard (well third if you wanna be technical) my favorite local Classic Rock station (that's all we have out here, no active or alternative rock out in this neck of the woods) decided to play a non-single on the air. I say this is the second time or third if you wanna be technical because the first time I heard was when they played Green Day's "Are We the Waiting" and "St. Jimmy" back to back. And anyone who's heard those knows that they were meant to be played together. But anyway, the station passed off this song as (in a deep voice) "The song you wanted to hear before you knew about the album, part three of the trilogy." I thought it was decent, and so far this along with the 4 itunes singles just aren't enough to get me to buy the album.

My three favourites are The Day That Never Comes, All Nightmare Long and Cyanide. They sound amazing back to back.

Considering "All Nightmare Long" seems to be the most well-liked track (it's my favorite too), it probably would have done pretty damn well as a single.

My station's been playing this since a couple weeks ago.
My favorite, pretty easily, is "Broken, Beat & Scarred." God, that song kicks ass.
I need one final listen to be sure, but I'm pretty sure this is what my album ranker would look like:
1. The Day That Never Comes 2. Broken, Beat & Scarred 3. My Apocalypse 4. The Unforgiven III 5. All Nightmare Long 6. That Was Just Your Life 7. Cyanide 8. The End of the Line 9. The Judas Kiss 10. Suicide & Redemption
It's pretty easily better than Load, Reload, or St. Anger, in my opinion. I even like it better song-for-song than ...And Justice for All already, too. I'm gonna need more time overall to see if I end up liking it better than any of their other 4 records.

He means of the songs they have yet to release. I do. Anyway, my definitive listen this evening caused "That Was Just Your Life" to climb up two spots to #6. I've since adjusted accordingly.
