2003- St. Anger

After six years of patiently waiting, fans were more than disappointed with Metallica’s newest album St. Anger. Only one word can descried this album… Poptallica. Metallica has officially become complete sell outs with this album. They abandoned their roots completely in order to seek out a new mainstream look and identity. This was a disaster of epic proportions. Very few people actually liked this album. It drove away the old fan base along with the potential new younger generation that it was suppose to be marketing toward. This was the lowest point in Metallica’s career. This was a sad excuse for an album but for a great band like Metallica it was unthinkable.
