...6:41. Very very amazing track, and It immediatly gives me the the feeling 'Yay, I bought A Metallica Album'. 2. "...And Justice for All" - 9:47 In my eyes the best track of the CD, and it deserves to be the albumtitle holder 3. "Eye of the Beholder" - 6:30 I love the drums in this track. 4. "One" - 7:26 He deserves a medal for the guitar. 5. "The Shortest Straw" - 6:36 A 'regular' awesome song 6. "Harvester of Sorrow" - 5:46 Rocks my boat, and ...
...every second of this track. 9. "Dyers Eve" - 5:13 LOVE the solo. The only downside is that it is to difficult for them to play this album live, so you know how awesome they can be, and live they won't play this, makes me sad. ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic!
Disadvantages: None spring to mind

Linkin Park's debut album, littered with crunching riffs and memorable lyrics commands the listener to mosh along. There are no other options! There are few words capable of describing this Nu Metallic work of art other than astounding. The other words within my vocabulary that could do the job are unsuitable for minors. 'Hybrid Theory' is such a great album, especially when reflected on today. It was the foundation of a great band's success and ... Read review

Advantages: Flawless Heavy Metal record, technically stunning time signature shifts with occasional classical structuring
Disadvantages: 20 year old production job, could do with a re-mastering

...written. The chorus is a master class in how to combine a snaking super riff with great lyrics "Come crawling faster, obey your master, your life burns faster…" awesome. At 3 minutes and 34 seconds the pace drops as the word "Master" is repeated in increasingly darker tones. We get a beautiful segment of clean guitars with the beginning of what is about to become one hell of a guitar solo (see the band live and people all around will hum this one, ...
...Puppet's': 1. Battery 2. Master of Puppets 3. The Thing That Should Not Be 4. Welcome Home (Sanitarium) 5. Disposable Heroes 6. Leper Messiah 7. Orion (Instrumental) 8. Damage, Inc. I most certainly recommend this album to potential buyers, it is without a doubt the best 'Metallica' album released thus far. It clearly defined the 'Metallica' sound to it's full potential, and above all was a flawless masterpiece. If you like pre 'White Noise' ... Read review

Advantages: Inspirational for metalheads, great vocals, great lyrics, etc
Disadvantages: none

The First time I was introduced to Arch Enemy was on the television show Uranium on Fuse, back when Metal Mistress Juliya was there, and they seemed to somewhat care about heavy metal. Juliya was doing a feature on different women in metal and the present lead singer for the death metal band Arch Enemy, Angela Gossow was one of the people interviewed. I also got the chance to hear the song "We Will Rise". The song We will Rise is very motivational ...
...itself. The meaning is quite self explanatory. It's about metalheads rising about mainstream music such as pop, rap, hip hop and so on. Other popular songs on the album are Leader of the Rats and Dead Eyes See no Future. I strongly recommend metalhead to listen to those two. TRACK LIST: 1. "Tear Down the Walls (Intro)" 2. "Silent Wars" 3. "We Will Rise" 4. "Dead Eyes See No Future" 5. "Instinct" 6. "Leader of the Rats" 7. "Exist to Exit" 8. "Marching ... Read review

Advantages: great music performed live by a great band
Disadvantages: it doesnt show them 100% at their best

...the CD(12 audio live tracks) comes with DVD (17 performance tracks), case, and booklet (10 pages). DVD DIRECTOR: Kimo Proudfoot DVD PRODUCER: Matt Calabiano ALBUM PRODUCER: Josh Abraham Great an up close look at a band who is passionate about their music. The DVD has some off-stage sound bites and lots of on-stage action shots. The bands seems to have the big tough Metallica fans prancing happily in the Mosh Pit throughout the show which ya gotta ...
...time to notice the text and art on the actual CDs themselves - - which is reallly cool. 1. Don't Stay great slow motion footage during the intro. the crowd is immediately into the show. 2. Somewhere I Belong the band showcases their strong vocal talent here. The mix between DJ, guitar, bass, vocals is amazing. 3. Lying From You not mixed very well which is Too bad cos its a really Good song. 4. Papercut vocals get lost in the music here, again. ... Read review
