Metallica : St Anger
The World's Greatest Heavy Metal Band have come to terms with what they truly are.
Metallica spent most of the nineties, they admit now, thinking that fast, aggressive metal was "old hat". 1996's 'Load' and its twin 'Reload' saw the band experimenting with blues and country; 1998's covers collection, 'Garage Inc', featured a slew of hardcore punk tunes and a Nick Cave song; 1999's 'S&M' was a collaboration...

Metallica - St. Anger: Wikipedia Album Entry
“St. Anger” is the eighth studio album by Metallica. Released on June 5, 2003, this album marks the longest time span between studio albums from Metallica, with the nearly six years between the release of “ReLoad” and “St. Anger.”
It was also the first to receive a Parental Advisory label excluding Garage Inc. (a cover album), Live S**t: Binge and Purge (a live album), and S&M (also a live album).
The album was originally intended for release on June 10, 2003, but was instead released five days earlier due to fear of unlicensed copying over filesharing networks.
St. Anger received a mixed response from critics and fans alike. Many fans felt as if the old Metallica was replaced with a different band/sound. Though not all criticism was negative, some felt it was an experiment Metallica was going through and that Metallica was as strong as ever.
One reviewer, Adrien Begrand of PopMatters, took both sides to it, saying, “While it’s an ungodly mess at times, what you hear on this album is a band playing with passion for the first time in years.”

Metallica - St. Anger Lyrics
Metallica - My World Lyrics
The motherfuckers got in my head
Trying to make me someone else instead
It's my world now, it's my world now
Metallica - Purify Lyrics
Tear it down
Strip the layers off
My turpentine
Old paint, old looks
Metallica - The Unnamed Feeling Lyrics
Been here before, been here before
Been here before, been here before
Been here before, been here before
Metallica - Sweet Amber Lyrics
Wash your back, so you won't stab mine
Get in bed with your own kind
Live your life, so you don't see mine
Drape your back, so you won't shine
Metallica - Shoot Me Again Lyrics
I won't go away, right, right here I stay
Stand silent in flames, stand tall 'til it fades
Shoot me again, I ain't dead yet
Metallica - Invisible Kid Lyrics
Invisible kid
Never see what he did
Got stuck where he hid
Fallen through the grid
Metallica - Dirty Window Lyrics
I see my reflection in the window
It looks different, so different than what you see
Projecting judgment on the world
This house is clean, baby
Metallica - Some Kind Of Monster Lyrics
These are the eyes that can't see me
These are the hands that drop your trust
These are the boots that kick you 'round
This is the tongue that speaks on the inside
Metallica - St. Anger Lyrics
St. Anger 'round my neck
St. Anger 'round my neck
He never gets respect
St. Anger 'round my neck
Metallica - Frantic Lyrics
If I could have my wasted days back
Would I use them to get back on track?
Stop to warm at karma's burning
Or look ahead but keep on turning
Metallica - All Within My Hands Lyrics
All within my hands
All within my hands
Squeeze it in, crush it down
