01. That Was Just Your Life
02. The End of the Line
03. Broken, Beat and Scarred
04. The Day That Never Comes
05. All Nightmare Long
06. Cyanide
07. The Unforgiven III
08. The Judas Kiss
09. Suicide and Redemption
10. My Apocalypse

The Unforgiven III? That should be interesting! Not sure about the cover art though! Every song is going to be released for Guitar Hero on the same day the album is released as well.

[Markoos]

Just spotted that myself on Blabbermouth. Quite like the artwork actually.

[cultmetfan]

The Unforgiven III had me cringing when I saw it's title,I hope the rest of the album is full-on.

waiting patiently for the release date.

[Gandalf]

The Unforgiven III zomg

[Lou]

It kinda resembles a fanny.

[Jonnysus]

it's going to be shit. metallica usually are /bait

James Hetfield > Dave Mustaine
Kirk Hammett > Marty Friedman
All > Kerry King

the first part I agree with,but Kirk Hammett is ****ing cack

[doktorb]

Hah, oh now I won't be able to see it without thinking the same.....

[NYM]

it's going to be shit. metallica usually are /bait

It'd be a pleasant surprise if it wasn't cack. I still have my (played once) St Anger on a shelf somewhere, probably next to Endless Nameless by The Wildhearts (which I have grown to like, strangely).

Surprised Metallica have got the brains to do anything without Anthrax doing it first. E.g. Covering Remember Tomorrow, covering We're A Happy Family. Also the albums that Metallica brought out through the 90's were always just after Anthrax's releases, and woefully worse.

But that's just my opinion. And bait.

[Rach]

Hah, oh now I won't be able to see it without thinking the same.....

Or a fanny without thinking of Metallica?

[Jonnysus]

Kirk Hammett > Marty Friedman

lol

kirk "shite" hammett ruined s&m

[Gandalf]

it's going to be shit. metallica usually are /bait

Usually I'd absoliutly agree, but if Trujillo had anything to do with it, it should be ok/listenable.

lol

kirk "shite" hammett ruined s&m

Thats true, he needs to go back and learn some better vibrato.

Love the artwork!
Also, barring Unforgiven III, the songnames seem to hark 'back to a better day...' so to speak. (In other words they seem more old skool.)

Also, Jenni, I think you may have a case for a copyright case there with song number 6. :)

[Young Modern]

The cover of Maiden's Remember Tomorrow on that Kerrang CD is awesome. If the tones and feel of that track are anything to go by on the new CD then it's gonna be tits. It wreaks of the good old days.

[Fugazi]

If you guys know anyone who has a puss that looks like that, tell 'em to get to a doctor, because something ain't right.

[totalvictory]

I'm cautiously optimistic about the record, but that cover is absolutely terrible. Even Foucault would not have been able to smugly say 'ceci n'es pas Death Magnetic', because that's exactly what it is.

I like it, its cool how they made the outside off the coffin look like magnetic waves so it goes with the album name OMFG IM SO SMRT

Do metalheads think this is a bit sell-out, or cool?

Just asking. Heard someone on my 1up podcast mention this today, and wanted to know what people thought.

Strangely I always had that opinion about Megadeth copying Metallica!

We've Come for You All is the best 'Big Four' thrash album released this side of the year 2000, by a mile. I even prefer it to most of Anthrax's older stuff, but that's just me being picky because I could never get into them.

Personally I'm not bothered, as I've never played Guitar Hero! I can't see a problem with it, it's just a different way of getting the music out there I guess, which is what every band in the world wants to do.

[Andy]

Surely people could just rip the whole album from the game, which would just be another way that the album would be put online. Lars won't be happy.

you seem to forget that Metallica recorded We're A Happy Family before Anthrax,although Anthrax's version was released before the St.Anger singles.(I have a dvd with them performing the same b-sides live from one of the Fan Club fan cans,with Bob Rock on bass)
also Metallica have been playing bits of Remember Tomorrow live since the And Justice For All tour,they played the intro at Donington in 1995.

Darren Catterall: the only person I've ever met who majestically pisses all over my Metallica knowledge.

haha,

cheers Stu,

in all honesty I've only been a fan since 1993-4.

but they were big buds (and possibly still are) with Anthrax and they both used to nick riffs off each other and put song titles in each others songs.....Disease,Disease Spreading His Disease(Leper Messiah)....Disease,Disease,Spreading The Disease(Among The Living,although the album before Among The Living was called Spreading The Disease).

I'll get mi coat.

Yeh I always seem to find photos of the two bands together, there's some as recent as the Madly in Anger... tour actually!

Scott Ian always crops up on those VH-1 things when they are talking about Metallica.

I have Anthrax covering Phantom Lord somewhere,it's ace as is Scott Ian's cover of Whiplash on a tribute album.

[Gandalf]

I've never once in my life connected Anthrax with Metallica, although I'll admit I've never dug deep enough to see if there is, that or its hiding behind the colossus of the Metallica vs Megadeth thing and has been overlooked. :confused:

Anthrax let them sleep in their rehearsal space in New York when they were recording Kill 'Em All

the ties are deep.

I think the Remember Tomorrow by Anthrax I have is on a Nothing CD single from around 1996. So Anthrax probably watch what Metallica are doing (and what covers they are sitting on) then do there own version and rush them out to try make it look like Metallica are trying to copy them.....

Yeah, the bands go way back, I read a Scott Ian interview for a beginners guide to Anthrax where he said they are pretty much like Metallica without the money.
Anthrax sampled the word 'Master' from the Puppets title track in I'm The Man - and Anthrax also got the vocalist that Metallica wanted. Then treated him shamefully

[jesus_nightside_eclipse]

Then treated him shamefully

Yep, disgraceful. A kick-ass vocalist as well, great voice.

[NYM]

I would love to have made the Master Of Puppets tour though, with Anthrax supporting Metallica. Such an exciting time musically.

First saw Metallica with warrior Soul supporting at the back end of Justice tour.

First saw Anthrax supporting Iron Maiden at Edinburgh airport on the No Prayer For The Dying tour.

Anthrax were always better with John Bush. I need to revisit some Armoured Saint.

Lars didn't actually do a bad job of singing, when he wasn't running around. Which was all the time. :p

yeah,John Bush was an awesome vocalist,sadly I only got to see Anthrax twice with him singing for them....Manchester Apollo supporting Motorhead in 2002 and Manchester Academy 2 2004.

Scott Ian wishes he wrote Whiplash and James Hetfield stated that Only was one of the finest songs ever written.

[Joe]

James Hetfield stated that Only was one of the finest songs ever written.

funnily enough i learned that fact only last week.

[cultmetfan]

funnily enough i learned that fact only last week.

it was probably the song that got me into Anthrax,I couldn't stand Joey Belladonna's vocals but hearing John Bush made the difference.
I've just had The Greater Of Two Evils disc on at work,Bush's vocal performance slays Belladonna's original work.

[jesus_nightside_eclipse]

it was probably the song that got me into Anthrax,I couldn't stand Joey Belladonna's vocals but hearing John Bush made the difference.

Same here, I've got it a live version on one of those Armageddon Over Wacken CDs somewhere. The same band has this awesome polka band doing a perfect cover of 'Jump' by Van Halen, it's absolutely brilliant!

[Jonny RAW]

Most of the songs on Sound of White Noise are awesome... It's my most listened to album on my phone as it is quite simply metal genius...

I was gutted when I saw them at Download, as the other singer was pure gash...

[NYM]

If Anthrax were to one gig in the UK this year and it was in Inverness with John Bush, I'd be there. If it was with Joey Belladonna at 53 Degrees, I'd go if I had nothing else on. Commitment wise I mean (never been to a gig naked yet).

Had The Black Vipers on at Mojito tonight. They had a 15 minute break, first two tunes I played in the break were Black Lodge then Obsessive Compulsive's Blood Everywhere. Then a bit of PJ Harvey. Good intermission, excellent band.

:D

Cyanide would sit right next to 'I Disappear.' I'm starting to get disappointed again.

I really like Cyanide. Got a live version that sounds brilliant.
