Seriously glad they went back to the original logo haven't seen that since the black album.

The worst part is the coffin outline. The lines are too straight. Everything else is decent, but those straight lines contrast with the unevenness of everything else.

This isn't a Salvador Dali painting ... who cares if corporate strategists can't tell the difference between good art and their elbow.. lets save the criticism for the music

I dunno, something about it seems a bit too basic. It looks like a teaser poster or something.

Like a few others, I too thought it was a cunt surrounded by the bush. But, I guess that was Metallicas or whoever designed that covers intention. To make it first appear like something else. A closer look at the cover and got to know it was supposed to be a coffin. Makes sense since the cover on Load was supposed to be semen. Dunno if the clenched fist in St.Anger was supposed to symbolize someone masturbating. I agree that it is good to see the old logo back. Metallica have never had the best of covers for their albums anyway, so I am not surprised I don't like the cover. Stupid cover and equally stupid name for an album.
