Metallica been practicing? New song doesn't sound absolutely terrible

METALLICA has been on tour in Europe, as they escaped their studio to take a break from recording. They have been playing a new song during their live sets, and while I'm not too crazy about the vocals, the music actually sounds kind-of sort-of like the Metallica of old. Looks like Rick Rubin is helping them find their way again. What do you think?

Their old songs don't sound shitty as well. Watching some live performances from last year's festival, it sounded like they had become a bad cover band of their old stuff, completely butchering classics off their first four albums. It seems as though that is not the case any more. A good quality version of "..And Justice For All" from a recent festival posted after the jump…
