Mission: Metallica - kompletter Start am 27.05

MISSION: METALLICA . . . LET THE RIDE BEGIN
5/22/2008

Enough already . . . we've seen everything in this little preview of yours . . . let's get on with it! Okay, okay . . . on May 27, 2008 Mission: Metallica becomes our way to bring you in and share with you not only the writing and recording process that's been taking place in the last 18 months, but also what's ahead between now and when the record is in your hands. And instead of waiting and releasing some "making of the record" additional DVD in a bullshit deluxe package when the album comes out, we figured why not let you be part of it up front?

Here's the deal . . . Mission: Metallica is your chance to be on the inside of the new album with fly on the wall video footage, riffs and excepts of the music, studio photos, cool contests, and some trips back in time to Lars' vault with live downloads and rare photos. You're going to be part of the experience over the next four months or so as we put the finishing touches on the album, including mixing, mastering, artwork, photo sessions, etc.

Now the fine print . . . because of all the different rules, laws, currencies, record company crap, and generally, the ins and outs of all the far corners of the world, Mission: Metallica isn't going to be available in every country at the same time, and you may even see some other differences depending on where you live. We're going to keep you posted here and we're going to make sure that we do whatever we can, so that no matter where you live, you'll have a kick ass time checking it out.

After you've had a chance to hang out and cruise around the site, if you decide that a lot just isn't enough and you need more, more, more and extra more, then check out the platinum version . . . more photos, more video clips, more contests, a download of the new single when it's ready, downloads of photos, videos, and live shows, and a copy of the new album in the format of your choice with it arriving to you the same day it hits the record stores. "Just when does the damn album come out" you ask? We'll tell you soon . . . honest!! (there might even be a clue a couple of paragraphs back!) You'll have a plethora of options for how you receive your copy of the new album . . . check out the Mission: Metallica site for all the gory details.

Met Club members: Check www.metclub.com for info on how you get access to the Mission: Metallica Platinum experience for free.

We're excited to take this ride with you . . . and have all kinds of cool stuff planned for the summer. To be honest with you, just like the album, the site is still a work in progress so along with all the new music, we're also going to keep adding things for you to see, do, and listen to. There is an element of making this up as we go along, so let's have fun with that. Let us know what you think about the ride and if there's anything we're missing.

Formed in Los Angeles in 1981 by drummer Lars Ulrich and rhythm guitarist and vocalist James Hetfield, Metallica has become one of the most influential and commercially successful rock bands in history, having sold nearly 100 million albums worldwide and playing to millions of fans the world over. They have garnered numerous awards and accolades, including seven Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, and three MTV Video Music Awards.

Damit könnt ich leben, wenn noch ein, zwei Songs von Kill 'em all dabei wären. Devil's Dance brauch ich net wirklich, dann lieber Wasting my hate...

Devil's Dance ist imo das Highlight der Playlist, weil's den Rest bis auf den Harvester auch schon 2007 zu hören gab. Ich hoffe morgen variieren die das in Holland a bissl mehr. Kill 'em all-technisch ist die Playlist imo ok, ich hätte gern mehr von der Justice (Shortest Straw, Dyers Eve, Blackened, Frayed Ends...)...fänd's auch cool, wenn die mal was rares von der St. Anger oder der Load reinnehmen würden, auch wenn's nicht die absoluten Überalben sind...

Als Opener fänd ich The four horsemen ziemlich geil. Und sonst... Abwarten was kommt. Frayed Ends würd ich auch gern mal Live erleben.
Wär mal cool, wenn sie ne Setlist mit wenigen Standards, dafür mit kaum oder nie gespielten Songs machen würden! Escape, Trapped under Ice, Frayed Ends usw.


Ach ja, viel Spaß euch beiden!! Lassts krachen!

[Vince]

Danke! Und irgendwann müssten wir es echt mal hinkriegen, alle Metalheads hier zu vereinen und zusammen zu einem Konzert zu fahren. Wäre sicher ne geile Sache.

@ Vince: Auf jeden Fall! Das wär echt mal n Fest. Würde ich nicht zu RIP fahren, wär das Pinkpop für mich drin gewesen, aber so wirds zu teuer, da beide zu nah beieinander sind...

@ Eaten: Hach ja. Ich bin auch am überlegen, da ich als MetClub Mitglied das Package noch verbilligt bekomm, ist bloß noch net raus, wie viel billiger. Und ich hab noch net mal nen Plattenspieler. Da müsst ich immer bei meinen Eltern hören. Mein Verstärker hat nicht mal mehr nen Phono-Eingang...

Dyers Eve for Opener...dann würde ich da mit einer Mordslatte stehen ;-)
Aber ist eher unwahrscheinlich ;-) Auf Metontour.com kann man btw das Video zum Polen-Gig gucken mit der Performance von "Devil's Dance"....arschgeil vor allem mit dem übelst gezogenen Intro :-D
Zudem sind auf einigen Youtube-Videos vom gestrigen Gig neue Pyros bei "Seek & Destroy" zu sehen....Yeah! :-D

Ach ja, viel Spaß euch beiden!! Lassts krachen!

Vielen Dank! Werden wir machen, denke ich...

METALLICA's New Album Previewed: ROCK SOUND And METAL HAMMER Offer Their Opinions ||

04.06.2008UK's Rock Sound and Metal Hammer magazines have posted separate reports on the listening session for the new METALLICA album, which took place earlier today (Wednesday, June 4) in London.

Rock Sound writes: "On first impressions and just one listen, Rock Sound can confirm that the songs we've heard sound very much like classic METALLICA in vibe, harking back to the days of 'Master Of Puppets', '…And Justice For All' (but with bass) and the [self-titled 'black'] album — without sounding dated or tired.

"Of the six tracks Rock Sound heard this afternoon, only one had a working title — 'Flamingo'. With a slow intro, the song was reminiscent of 'Battery' in vibe, with two guitar solos and an undercurrent of melody and groove.

"The first single is an epic power rocker in the vein of 'The Unforgiven', 'Nothing Else Matters' and 'Sanitarium', with a mid-tempo, head-banging section and some THIN LIZZY-esque twin guitar riffage.

"Another song features the lyrics, 'Into abyss, you don't exist, you can't resist the Judas kiss'; another features an almost RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE-esque drum 'n' bass undercurrent and lyrics about 'suicide' and 'cyanide'; while the final song we heard, dubbed 'The Song', clocks in at under five minutes and is a galloping thrash attack with quirks, and a sniff of TESTAMENT about it!

"We suspect other song titles could include 'Die Hard', 'Show Your Scars', and 'My Apocalypse' — but we cannot be held responsible if none of these titles or lyrics are accurate!

"Thankfully — there are plenty of Kirk Hammett traditional guitar solos and a decent drum sound. Hetfield's voice sounds in fine form too. All of the songs have many different parts to them, giving the impression that the quartet is revisiting the epic vibe of the band's 'classic' period."

Metal Hammer reports: "What do the songs sound like? Track one, which is only known by the cryptic working title 'Flamingo', opens up on thunderous rolling drums as lead guitar meets them head on, a flaring up in stop-start motion before it pulls itself together in rushes forward in classic thrash style, all crunching 'Fight Fire With Fire' riffs and drilling beats. It takes at least two minutes for James Hetfield's vocals to come in, and while they sound furious, this isn't the grittiest he's ever sounded, more open in tone, but while there's still a memorable vocal line for the 'chorus,' and there is so much going on in the song, and so many ideas thrown in and discarded for the next one that it's hard on first listen to pick out one riff that you're going to remember it by. But with galloping riffs and the return of guitar breaks rising up from out of the grooves you can hear the true METALLICA spirit, even though its as if reflected in mirrored mosaic.

"Track two is at heart an anthemic ballad that recalls 'Fight Fire With Fire' and 'Nothing Else Matters', with a chiming guitar intro, airy vocals and some slightly convoluted, progressive-style bridges that mutate into urgent riffing, more galloping riffs and guitar solos. Again, the song has a number of different sections, but it still sounds massive.

"Track three kicks off on a stop-start riff flecked with Eastern touches, as other bustling guitar lines play off each other and Hetfield's vocals retain the power of old, like some monolithic prophet overlooking events as mid-paced, chugging riffs come in, sounding like an army on the march, methodically shooting anyone in their path.

"Track four is reminiscent of 'Master Of Puppets' with more than a touch of heads-down SLAYER pacing thrown in. After an artillery-lobbing drum-led intro, it quickly sets off on marching, thrash mode, Hetfield's spat vocals taking melodic digressions, as he roars 'Bow down, surrender unto me.' The song's groove carries you along as it opens up into guitar atomospherics that bring LED ZEP to mind. It isn't quite the kind of irresistible monster they've created before, but METALLICA still prove they can still sound lean and epic at the same time, and when the track drops out into the grove mid-way though, you can imagine the chants coming from the crowds live.

"Track five has another strong opening, with an uncharacteristic bouncing groove not a million miles away from RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE making appearances throughout setting off sharp riffs that come up against an irregular barrage of percussion that sets it off briefly on a more melodic path and builds up once again into a thrilling riff-fest mayhem.

"Track six is the 'song', considerably shorter than the others, but full of clinically sharp riffing, more SLAYER-esque parts and galloping grooves, all hustle and bustle with a tinge of Eastern melody thrown in once more.

"Initial impressions is that this is an album that's going to get our blood chugging, but whether it's all we hoped for is going to take more plays to answer. Ultimately we're hugely relieved and pretty damn thrilled, and we can't fucking wait to hear the rest."

[Vince]

"Flamingo", imo wär das irgendwie auch ein geiler finaler Titel für einen Song...

Liest sich alles sehr gut, ist aber ja bei Previews meistens so. Die Ausschnitte, die man bisher zu hören kam, klangen in meinen Ohren aber gar nicht so oldschool, sondern recht modern. Oder halt wie aufpolierter Oldschool. Schau'mer mal. Wird jedenfalls langsam Zeit. Das letzte Metallica-Album war in meiner allerersten Amazon-Bestellung, und wenn man bedenkt, wie viele Pakete seither gekommen sind, wird es echt mal Zeit. ;)

[Hannibal]

Jo, aufpolierter Old School trifft es eigentlich ganz gut...also zumindest die Ausschnitte, die man so bisher zu hören bekam. Bei den Previews bin ich auch noch vorsichtig, die schrieben damals auch "St. Anger" sei die neue "Justice", was dann - auch wenn ich "St. Anger" mag - definitiv nicht der Fall war ;-)
Aber die grobe Tendenz in Verbindung mit den bisher gehörten Ausschniten lässt ja schonmal recht positives vermuten...

Hier noch eine:

Classic Rock Hears New Metallica Album



Classic Rock was among a select band of rock journalists to hear a taster from the new Metallica album today. At present untitled, the band’s new record has been nicknamed by management “Nine epics and one song”. We heard six of 'em – unmixed and all unnamed (we guess at some of the titles in our track by track, below).

Classic Rock was one of the few magazines to give the band’s last album, St. Anger, a bad review on its release, Philip Wilding giving it 2/5. “It’s unfettered hell-for-leather nonsense pretty much from beginning to end,” he wrote. “Forget nuance or gravitas – or Metallica, for that matter – this is latter-day heavy metal pulverised into a risible mush that owes as much to rock music’s deviation in the last three years, as to the credible legend that Metallica have built and cultivated since the early 80s.

“This, you reason, must be the sound of a mid-life crisis…”

The following year’s documentary Some Kind Of Monster let fans see exactly that – the creative and personal meltdown that occurred during the creative process.

So is the new album the sound of conquering heroes? Or just the sound of some multi-millionaires with a franchise to exploit? Does it try too hard to please – or is it the sound of a band who know they’ve got everything to prove and the year is their’s for the taking?

Maybe it’s the one multi-million-selling triumph that will actually get some radio airplay without resorting to Chili Peppers-style bland-outs. Maybe it’s a re-hash of former glories. Maybe it’s too little too late. Or maybe it’s some metal masters showing the young pretenders how to do it (with riffs and solos and, y’know, singing – not growling).

Are the lyrics the work of a middle-aged doofus with a rhyming dictionary? Or are they the work of thrash titans who’ve found a voice and created fittingly intense music for these intense times?

The jury is out until we can spend some quality time with the album. Until then, this is what we heard…

Track one – (working title ‘Flamingo’)
Opens with a lightly chorus guitar riff, slightly reminiscent of Sandman, a hugely long intro before a gruff, Hetfield patented “three four” breaks down into a Slayer-ish thrashy riff barrage.

The drum sound is infinitely better than St Anger. Includes a serious wah-wah breakdown and several, distinct melodic chorus refrains. Could be a good radio bet – there’s no mistaking that it’s a Metallica song.

Which is more than could be said of St Anger. Back in the early 00s, of course, Nu Metal producer/overlord Ross Robinson famously banned guitar solos from albums by the likes of Slipknot. That Metallica – metal’s biggest band – seemed to toe the line with this philosophy in order to win the kids over beggared belief.

The good news? The guitar solos are back. With a vengeance. Hammett has been let back off the leash – this track even sees him breaking open the whammy pedal again for a spot of Tom Morello-esque tomfoolery.

Its false ending even fooled the guy from management who has heard it several times before!

Track two – (aka The Single)

It’s an eight-minute behemoth. Intro has elements of techno metal, vaguely reminiscent of Queensryche’s Silent Lucidity clean picked guitar sound (think Martha & the Muffins’ Echo Beach on downers).

It’s a Metallica power ballad – whoever thought a Met song would ever feature the line ‘Love is a four-letter word’? – and it follows more traditional lines than their previous forays into balladry.

Just when you think it might be a little meandering, The Single breaks down with a Battery-style riff and Hammett and Hetfield let rip with a twin-guitar Thin Lizzy-style solo. Nice.

The solo doesn’t stop there, Hammett takes centre stage and ramps it up with a very technical, Iron Maiden fret melting solo.

Track three (suggested title: ‘Scars’ or ‘We Die Hard’)

A take-no-prisoners bludgeoner, with its repeated refrain of ‘What won’t kill you makes you more strong’. Is this the sound of Metallica reacting to their troubles of recent years (St A’s bad reception and their struggles documented on Some Kind Of Monster)? “You rise, you fall, you’re down and you rise again”. Features a very abstract Hammett solo.

Track four (suggested title: ‘The Judas Kiss’ or ‘Bow Down’)

‘When you think it’s all said and done/Sell your soul to me/Bow down to me/I will set you free.’ Hetfield takes on the role of an alter-ego demon in this monster Maiden-esque bruiser.

Lots of traditional Metallica stoppy-starty stuff, wrapped around Lars’ military tattoo-style drum work.

Track five (suggested title: ‘To End This War’)

Opens with a clean rolling bassline (with a slight Motley Crue Dr Feelgood vibe to it?). Lot more of Trujillo on this record, with some sneaky fills/solo bass stuff.

Breaks down into a old-school chuggy riff. It’s sorta Iron Maiden meets Born To Be Wild. Massive guitars.

Then, after an extended instumental break a new mid-paced melody appears over the top of more clean guitar section.

Hammett is keeping up with OTT solos, and there’s more dual soloing between him and Hetfield than there has been for a while (shades of Lizzy, maybe UFO).

Track six (‘The Song’ says the management guy. Suggested title: ‘Into The Crypt’ or ‘My Apocalypse’ or ‘Crossed That Line’)

The shortest song on the album, clocks in a about 6 minutes (the rest average at about 8 minutes apiece).

A Reign In Blood-style riff monster,it’s probably the most ‘catchy’, and submits to the most traditional verse/chorus/breakdown format, but there is an awful lot going on.

Big drums on this one, coupled with out-of-control, “mere mortals will never play this”–style soloing from Kirk.

Will Metallica reclaim their position as metal gods? We’ll see at the end of the summer – rumours are that the album will be out mid September.

Metallica: Management zensiert Reviews
Anlässlich des kommenden Metallica-Albums lädt das Management erst zur Listening Session, fordert dann aber sämtliche Magazine auf, ihre Vorab-Eindrücke vom Netz zu nehmen.

Los Angeles (alc) - Man muss sich das mal vorstellen: Q Prime, das Management der Metal-Veteranen Metallica, lädt eine Horde Journalisten ins Büro ein, um sich exklusiv vor dem Rest der Branche den Rough-Mix des neuen Metallica-Albums anzuhören. Wie zu erwarten, berichten die Gäste über ihren Höreindruck - in äußerst lobenden Worten.
Woraufhin jedoch besagtes Management meint, die Reißleine ziehen und den Magazinen Kerrang!, Metal Hammer und The Quietus verbieten zu müssen, auch nur ein Wort über das noch unbetitelte Album zu verlieren. Sämtliche Texte sollten wieder vom Netz genommen werden. So geschehen unlängst in Los Angeles.

Die Frage sei erlaubt, wozu man dann überhaupt schreibende Vertreter einlädt. Zumal eine Geheimhaltung der Impressionen vorab gar kein Thema war. Die Meinung, dass es sich hier um einen Schildbürgerstreich erster Kajüte handelt, teilt auch die Band selbst. Während ihrer laufenden Europatour kam Metallica der beschriebene Sachverhalt zu Ohren und nötigte sie dazu, auf ihrer Homepage Stellung zu beziehen.

"Wir wurden informiert, dass jemand von Q Prime diverse Magazine gebeten hat, Reviews des Rough Mixes der neuen Scheibe zu entfernen. [...] Das ergibt für uns keinen Sinn! Nach einer Runde managment-technischer Ohrfeigen und der Verurteilung aller Q Prime-Leute zu 20 Push Ups, haben wir beschlossen, die Sache in die eigene Hand zu nehmen und veröffentlichen die Links hier auf unserer Seite."

Und auch diese Frage sei erlaubt: Hätten Hetfield und co. im Falle negativer Rezensionen ebenso meinungsfreiheitsfreundlich reagiert?

The Box Magnetic (Death in a Coffin) [ 7/9/2008 ] [ back ]


The new album also available in a coffin (!?)

For you collector types out there we just had to put together something next level when the new record comes out in the Fall . . . how about "Death Magnetic" in a coffin box? The special edition box will come out the same day the album does (we'll tell you when that is soon . . . very soon) and will of course include the full CD (duh!), along with everything next level cool relating to "Death Magnetic!" Seriously, there will be a CD with the demos of the songs, a DVD of even more "making of the album" footage not seen on Mission: Metallica, a t-shirt only available in this box, a flag, guitar picks, and a fold out poster along with a collector's credit card embossed with a code to redeem a free download of a special European show happening in September (yes, details coming soon!). We're in the process of wrapping up the artwork now, so we'll be sure to have some things to show soon. The coffin box will only be available through www.metallica.com, www.metclub.com, and www.missionmetallica.com and we'll keep you posted here as to when that will be (soon!) . . . not all countries will be available at the same time, so keep watching.
As usual, more to come . . . (soon!)

......Gekauft! ;-)

[Vince]

Phat!
Würd ich mir auch gerne kaufen (je nach Preis), bin aber auf keiner der Seiten angemeldet und hab auch keine Kreditkarte. :(

[Hannibal]

Preis wird vermutlich irgendwo um die 100 Euro liegen, also nicht so ganz billig ;-)
