First of all, I would like to thank the last 6 users who commented on the review in what I believe to be a more correct and constructive way compared to others. I would like to specifically address the criticisms regarding the length, which I see as the most targeted part of the review... My goal was precisely to publish a review that differs from the usual summaries, which I believe provide little information compared to the wealth that could be shared with users... Moreover, this album in particular is a concept album, and I believe that these types of albums require special attention, at least regarding the subject matter discussed... As for the track by track, I'm afraid I may have fallen into a situation not dissimilar to the drivel described above, which probably made the review quite heavy. @ez: I don't think I peppered the review with excuses; if you could tell me where you found them so I can correct myself next time, I would be grateful.

No problem for "painful and tormented life," nor for criticism; the important thing is that it is constructive, and I don't seem to have read any of that kind...

Of course, it’s very amusing to receive ratings/criticisms from those who can't even read a review... You should know that a review is a critical account of the content of anything, in this case an album. I felt it necessary to write such a lengthy review for the simple reason that I don't care about reading "this album is good, this album is bad"... When I look for a review, I want to get information about an album and, while searching online, I found none that even slightly focused on the concept or the individual tracks, which I consider important... If someone wants to read a review that says "With Load, Metallica moves away from Thrash and completely messes up by producing an awful album," that’s your problem.

Well, it's my first review, so be nice... In my opinion, this album is very different from Leviathan. There might be a comparison in terms of atmosphere, but I find this one much more complex, more "prog"... Puntini, I didn't understand what this album lacks in your opinion. If you’re talking about the ramblings, I think they are the Achilles' heel because they break up the rhythm of BM too much, especially since, given the excessive (in my opinion) heterogeneity of the tracks, it doesn’t seem to need them. That doesn't take away from the fact that BM is a great album, just not on the level of this CTS.
