haha, have patience! 11 a.m. local time, they'll post the new single on line.

Have you checked out 'Cyanide' on youtube? I have to say I really dig the chorus. I've been singing it all though the holiday.

I'm a really big Metallica fan, but this new song doesn't get me really excited. The latter part of the song is great, but the first four minutes just plain boring. Mainly because of the voice of James. I always liked his vocals, but since Load he tries to sing and well that's not something he can. The stuff is better than all on St. Anger I have to give them that and of course (I hope so) the sound of the original cd will sound better than this MP3. I also hope that they have mixed it a bit better, because the vocals really lay on top of the other instruments instead of being a part of the whole instrumentarium....
