Am I REALLY the only person here who really likes St Anger??

over a year later, and I still like it. Just put it on to get myself psyched up for the DVD release of Some Kind of Monster. It's going to be one of those records that is recognized, ten years from now, for being far better than people gave it credit for upon release.

It's been twelve years and people still think this is fucking terrible

yeah but look at who made the original statement

The drum sound is ace, best idea they had in years.

Hahaha I kind of like the drums. Not the sound obviously they sound like shit. But how insane it is to release them like this, they were probably just exhausted and said fuck it.

they're right on the verge of so bad they're good, but they didn't quite get there

last few years must've made me dumber bc i kinda love this album now

the riffs are just so gnarly

- "Legendary album. Panned by critics and fans when it was released, but has stood the tests of time to become known as one of their greatest."

- "No kidding. Makes you almost forget that Lou Reed was once in another band."

- "Lou Reed? What album are you talking about?"

lol i'm glad i'm not the only one who does that

yeah I haven’t dug deep into this album but it certainly isn’t bad. I’ve really 180d on load, too.

well maybe not 180 maybe more like 90-120

Now that they've made plenty of returns to thrash, I think we can all admit that they were really trying with the songwriting on Load and there are some monster hooks.
