St. AngerSt. Anger is Metallica's eighth full-length studio album, and tenth overall cd release. The album was to be released on June 10, 2003. However, due to fears of extended music piracy over filesharing networks, St. Anger was released 5 days earlier on June 5, 2003. Six years elapsed between the release of the band's last album, Reload, and their recording of the album, which began in 2002. Many factors contributed to this delay, the two most important being the departure of bassist Jason Newsted, and vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield's several months in rehab. Metallica's longtime producer Bob Rock played bass for the recording of the album, and although the idea of Rock joining the band full-time was floated briefly, audtions for a "real" bassist were held in early 2003. A permanent replacement was found in the person of Robert Trujillo, formerly of Suicidal Tendencies and Ozzy Osbourne's band. The initial limited edition of the album also contained a DVD of the band performing the album live in the studio. Track listing All songs by Hammett, Hetfield, Rock, Ulrich - "Frantic" - 5:51
