on "S and M" metallica became polished,balanced and rawless... i loved Metallica for their brutal and agressive trash metal songs and even for solid heavy-rock from their latest albums.here in orchestral arangments all tracks are loosing power and emotions and are becaming blank.i am telling about "Fuel","Until it sleeps","the thing that should not be" and some others.luckilly "One","Human" and "Outlaw torn" became much more stronger and monumental after filling it with Michael Camen's orchestra.the sound gets much more dream-like and you can just flow with music... anyway - get Metallica's regular albums."S and M" is kind of experiment,surely it's interesting but not really great.This group works better without orchestral power!
