I could honestly care less about how good production on St. Anger was. Record it in a garage for all I care... look at Justice.. you can hardly hear the bass on that album, but it was damn good.

I'm concered with the quality and structure of songs. They'll take this melody that's... mediocre and should be a 3 minute song (or better yet, morphed into something that would no longer be mediocre), and transform it into a wannabe epic 7 minute thing just repeating the same 2 lines over and over. When they used to make long songs, they'd be ALL over the place. It would change tempo, melodies would change and the song would morph into something wild (like the song Master of Puppets, or most songs on Justice).

If you take the music for what it is, it's not HORRIBLE, but when you sit back and say "Ok, this is Metallica".. then something doesn't click right.
