I noted the same about James, he sounds really good and physically looks to be in some of the best shape over the last 10 years or so.

[@crappyreview8647]

Точняк,по сравнению с мастейном

[@Madmetalmaniac42069]

I feel the same on James. Lars is unpredictable as usual, sometimes he’s tight as hell, sometimes he’s very sloppy. Kirk seems to have problems remembering some leads here and there. He plays wrong notes/chords from time to time still. Rob is rock solid as always.

[@vincegedeon6583]

Unbelievable 💯

[@MichaelLasotaWheresWaldo]

There's lot of filters but it's good.

[@Diatonic5th]

It's good to see that Lars has obviously been practicing and got himself back in shape. He had reached a sad meme status for a while. And I'm not sure how it's possible, but James Hetfield's voice sounds better than it ever has.

[@lassesuurmunne8340]

I don't care what anyone says I love Kirk's solo! It's just so visceral and raw and explosive, just a burst of emotion. I love the whole damn song! And James's singing is on another level! They killed it!

Wow totally - I have not listened to Metallica in 20 or so years (moved on to heavier less "mainstream" stuff), and definitely prefer their early 90s sound, but this one surprised me, including James doing some lower snippets. Respect.

[@irrsinnrainer]

Damn, that's a gnarly bass tone Rob has going. The mix and the performance is fantastic.

[@krzysztofmaurycy88]

the more I listen to this song, especially live, the more I like it

I love the false ending near the 3:35 mark - and then the band says, "We're not close to done yet!" Great song, tight, tight, tight playing.

Out of all of the 80s rockers, James’ voice has held up better than any of them in any genre. And I’m not even a huge Metallica fan, but it is just undeniable he’s sounds better than the vast majority of singers from his era. He sound fantastic!

[@KBXband]

One thing I always loved about Metallica's songs is their accessibility and how fun they are to play

[@bhgant813]

You can tell they are really proud of what they have created and have put in the work!! F’n amazing! Well done Metallica.

[@firstnamelastname8060]

Most people don't understand how hard this band works. Inbetween European and South American and North American tours and rehearsals for them, and constant random shows here and there, they are writing, rehearsing and recording new material, probably more aggressively than in the 80's and 90's. That's not mentioning the videos and the myriad other things they have going on. And the are all hands-on Family men!

[@LaVerdad65]

Yet Lars cant find a couple hours a week to improve his technique
