Watching a small clip from the Kimmel show, it's as if they're instructed to act more childlike and genial to appeal to the broader mainstream audience.

Lux sounded great on Kimmel. Looks like they are playing a few nights on there.
Kirk got new teeth?

I'm probably way older than you, as i started consciously listening to them in 1991 (missed the 93 show in Lisbon, because i was 12, but aware of it) and i've known OF them since the late 80's. Well, sounds like we're the same age. Actually, I think I'm a bit older than you. I started listening in 88. But, what's that got to do with anything? Length of time listening = ..... what exactly? You don't like that they're not the band you thought was "cool". That term is, and always will be, subjective. Basically: they're not angry young men. They're not even grumpy middle-aged men anymore. It is what it is. You don't have to like it.

Alright I'm going to bed now. I expect when I wake up that the album would have leaked and this thread will have hundreds of posts saying how killer it is. If this doesn't happen I'm going to be disappointed in all of you.
Good night.

Yep-sure’s unusually quiet so close to album release ?

I think I'm gonna keep listening to this band for the rest of my life. I went through different musical phases in my life but Metallica's catalog was always the staple and mainstay of my preferences. I feel I have established a bond with these guys despite having never met them personally.
They sounded so tight on Kimmel yesterday, and that got me even more excited to hear the new album.

Kimmel was fantastic last night, I'm loving their live sound right now. Rob mentioned in his video interview that they worked hard on becoming tighter as a band in the last few years and it's definitely showing. I don't have concerns about their longevity like I used to.

Maybe a hot take but I don't think Lux Æterna works super well live. James is struggling to hit those notes. It's lacking the energy we hear on the album, I feel.

I kinda hope Rob will switch from the low singing octave to a shout. Hearing a "LUX AETERNA!" under James' high note would help smooth that out a little more.

They had some issues with IDHAS apperently. Guy hasn't confirmed wether it was a performance or technical issue. Oh well, that's what multiple takes are for.

All Metallica-related appearances this week were filmed yesterday afternoon.

Didn't DM or HWTSD get released early due to leaks? My memory fails me.

Read two reviews from Danish metal magazines today. Both sounded much like the others, but but were also completely blown away by Inamorata
I need that song… NOW
