i consider myslef a 'loyal' fan, and lyriclly speaking, frantic makes sense to me, dont see why 'everyone' critic-wise thout SA was the worst metallica album.

everysingle album is great, but that's just me, i can identify with the lyrics, on every single record KIA-DM.

I like these lyrics. The tick-tock fits the lyrics well with the pace of music (frantic pase of course.) :)
"Lifestyle determines my deathstyle" is a favourite of mine. It just seems to make perfect sense.

The Frantic lyrics make sense to me also. As do all of St Anger lyrics...Theyre killer...
I think the haters do it just to make a name for themselves...

I don't think frantic has particularly bad lyrics. But I don't really like them myself. Overall, I think it's a strong album....maybe not as great as say, KEA or RTL but still a good Metallica album. I think most of the people who think it's a 'bad' album haven't listened to it properly. Having said that, I do like the music more than the lyrics on SA.

This comes with a not-very-flattering confession.

I haven't listened to St. Anger. I heard Some Kind of Monster on the radio once and was scared away.

But I found a ringtone of Frantic and listened to it. I turned red and couldn't stop laughing because I swear that to me, the tic-tic-tic-tock sounded like he was about to give us something that belonged in the "O" pic thread.

"My lifestyle determines my deathstyle" to me captures the playfulness any good writer should have with the language. I think my favourite lyric from the album was from "All Within My Hands"

"Love is control; I'll die if I let go."
