^^^I can't wait to check out the new album, I heard the studio cut of "The Ecstasy of Gold", and I like it, I just hope the rest of the album is up to par. Even though I agree that there was a lot of raw energy put into St. Anger, I can't stand to listen to it.

To Poiuyt : As always in discussions about musicians, people are never gonna always agree on something. I like how Kirk gets down with the wah pedal, but you're not the first person that I've talked to that thought it was overboard. I do however somewhat agree with you on the statement you made about Kirk being over-rated, cause I think there are a lot of people who name him as their "favorite guitarist", that don't know the first thing about him or his music.
