    *It drives me crazy when some ppl are like "If this was a song by some random band I'd really like it.. but since I expect more from Metallica, it's just "meh". Yes I like this song. No it doesn't blow me away but it doesn't have to. They've already done that 100 times over, they're 60 yrs old, they're still putting out quality music and that's good enough for me. I don't need a rehash/redo of the Master of Puppets/And Justice For All days or any song they do just blow my mind to still be able to appreciate, recognize and respect them for their musical talent. Thanks for the reaction.*

    When I first heard this tune the other night I was kinda torn, as far as my initial impression. Now a couple days have gone by and I have found myself repeatedly going back to listen to it, over and over. The chorus where James screams the song title is everything in this track. That and the kick drums. But just the way James climbs the ladder vocally to belt out the chorus is such an amazing hook.
    This almost feels like a sorta power metal almost-but-not-quite Dokken-type vibe meets British new wave meets sped-up Load riffage meets a more polished version of Hit the Lights. It's gonna be a go-to live song (the lyrics kinda reflect that) and the song's energy and the boys' own energy are undeniable. I can't explain it, but all I know is my ear loves it.
    I'm very happy Metallica is back with new tunes and I'm also very happy they kept the album under wraps so now it's arriving soon - to MY mind - rather than them announcing it 2 years out and then us playing the waiting game.
    These old dogs can still hunt.

    There is a riff in there that is from "Hit the lights" , "Lightning the Nation" is a take on the song "Lightning to the Nations" by Diamond Head. "Full speed or nothing" from the tune Motorbreath! Kirk's solo lacked not melody like most say but more a sense of beginning and end...imo. It was surprising! Awesome production, energy and vocals!! Great show guys btw!

    I've been with metallica since their inception. When I hear criticisms of particular songs or albums I just feel like I do when super rich people buy 100 dollar meals in Venice then go to Paris and are so pretentious they judge 2 excellent meals one against the other and say one is crap. I hate it! Some people seem so entitled at the way metallica should please them that they hate on them for not "living up". Artists in their purity go where their art takes them. I'm just appreciative for the ride. This song ROCKS!

    People that aee not deep metal heads would not pick up on what Kirk is doing on his solo. Yes its short but he's playing homage to Hank Sherman from Mercyful Fate. The whammy bar pull offs with the decending up the neck is Hank Sherman's signature leads. The symbol hitsand stops are references also to Mercyful Fate as in "Curse of the Pharoahs" and the drum kick is reference to MotorHead's
    "OverKill" and also has some Judas Priest vibes all together in a 3 minute song!

I play guitar. I've been playing guitar forever. After doing the research and replaying full albums and playing the notes at proper BPM.......the guitar solo part at 2:32 is EXACTLY the same notes as what Kirk recorded for one of the solos on the Master Of Puppets song.....Do I think Kirk kinda ripped himself off? Yes. Am I mad about it? Hell no!
