Alright, can we all at least agree on the fact that Metallica's upcoming album Hardwired To Self-Destruct is going to be pretty awesome? The two tracks we've heard prior to this one have been astounding, and now we've got "Atlas, Rise!" Go ahead and stream the track below, and tell me that the riff right after the intro bit doesn't sound at least a little like something from Kill 'Em All.
I'd even go as far as saying that if the music on the album is consistently the same quality as the singles the band has been putting out, it'll be one of the best things they've ever done! Not to mention a solid return to form, in my opinion, anyway.
If you somehow missed their previous two singles, "Hardwired" and "Moth Into Flame," you can check those both out at their respective links right there.
Hardwired To Self-Destruct will be out in a variety of formats on November 18, and you can check out all of them (and their revisions) right here!
