50 bucks says even if Cliff survived Metallica wouldn't be any different to this day.

And if he tried to steer them clear of their style in the '90s, they would have canned him and went there anyway.

This is quite possibly the worst Metal/Rock album I've ever heard. Though I've only listened to it once. I will listen to it twice or thrice more to see if it grows with time, but I highly doubt it.

This album sucks.. I hope Metallica's real album is at least better than this horrible cd. Lou Reed just doesn't combine with the instrumental, just doesn´t make sense. The lyrics are horrible, Hetfield tries to make a good performance but him a Lou Reed don't fit together. The album is confusing and lacks direction.
Is supposed to be what? Heavy Metal album?..Rock?...Hard Rock??

Greets,

Gave this album a spin yesterday, nothin' memorable...

...Except the words "I am the table". Lets hope your next album's worth listening to.

Worst ever.

5% of good, solid moments, paired up with the 95% of pure shit.

5 from me, and that's being generous because they are all old men and one should respect the elders.

Doubting between a 1 and 2 though it IS the worst thing I have ever heard in my entire life.

One of the worst things ever created.

All ratings >5 cannot be serious

Only highlight of this album:

No one will outdo the great Peter Criss!!!

Seriously folks, it's not the worst album ever. Have you guys heard anything by Zarach Baal Tharagh? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54dgYEXZOzA&feature=related Yeah, a lot worse than Lulu for sure. Lulu may be ridiculously repetitive, but at least what it's repeating is decent riffs. The old man rambling though... Big mistake.

Milted Shit! Sorry!!

Your username is a Metallica song. Of course you're serious.

Just to see that this is NOT a Metallica album, is more a Lou Reed album than a Metallica album, but even with that is another fail in their career.

(((( ((((

Totally agreed. It's not a real Metallica album, so I don't judge it as such. However, it was a very misguided decision to do this project, and is probably the biggest blackspot in their career so far. Which is such a shame when they were starting to get back on track with "Death Magnetic".

Their next proper album will have to be really great to erase the bad taste left by this horrible collaboration though.

At least whatever they release after this will be praised by fans worldwide since even St. Anger looks like a masterpiece in comparison.

This is not a Metallica album guys, and i hope everyone who is making fun of "I am the table" understand it's a metafor? Lyrics on this album is great, but it's almoast the only thing thats good:)

You're implying that all metaphors are good. I am the table(t) is incredibly stupid no matter how you look at it.

I will be able to look at their next album in a very objective way, seeing as "Lulu" itself will have no bearing whatsoever on how I view it. I don't view "St. Anger" any differently now because of "Lulu" than I always did. But then again, to me it's not a Metallica album, so I do not compare it to their other albums. I will more compare the next album to "Death Magnetic", and hope that it's better and builds on the promise shown by that album. I will agree though that many fans will compare their next album to "Lulu", and therefore it is almost certain to get unwavering praise due to that.

OUCH, 2.7.

I´d rather eat fermented extrements than listen to this ball of anal rape one more time

The Bottom album of all time? Oh fuck.

The lyrics are the best on this fucking boring album... :/ Reed´s vocal is same in every song... and music? I feel that I am playing same PC game where I was killing zombies in 2D graphic... really not good :/ This is big letdown for me...

Oh boy, here we go!

And I've only yet to hear the whole album...
I kinda feel like I'm late to the party. According to them rates, I'm expecting a stellar release.

I knew it will be somewhere in the bottom 20 of all time, but didnt expect to be no.1 ... the same people who made Master of Puppets, this is just sad.
