I swung by Hot Topic tonight to see if they had the new Metallica cd - figured they'd be doing the cd + t-shirt deal on it. They didn't, but they guy working there said cryptically "Friday - and you'll want to be here to get it." I asked him if they were doing the cd + t-shirt thing, and he says "no, it's much better." Before I left, he said that the company had told them not to spread the deal in-store but that they should post about it on myspace, etc. No idea why, but I said ok & got his myspace tag to add him.

Long story short, the deal is $5 for the cd Friday only, plus "select Metallica t-shirts" for $5 as well. Not too shabby. :)

Keep in mind that Justice and everything before that is twenty+ years old. The Stones, Pink Floyd, Ozzy/Sabbath, AC/DC, etc, today do not sound the same as in their prime. Also the tech to record music is so much better today. The rawness you heard on Puppets, Ride, would sound so different today. The thing that shocked me about Justice, was not the songs, but the clean sound. Maybe I am the only one that thinks this.
 
Hey Argyle - thanks for the heads up on this - I picked up the CD and a shirt. First time I have been to Eastdale in a long time. So far I dig the CD - its ALOT better than the last one/few to me.... I'd have to agree with you that it reminds me more of the older stuff (which is a good thing).

The dude that was working at hot topic today was kinda crazy - had a nail through his ear and was telling me about his "mad ninja skillz" !?!?

Rolling stone has a pretty decent review of the new cd if anyone is interested....
