And yeah St. Anger was definitely a misfire, but there's an album in there that's legit unique and could have been cool if quality control had done its job and someone had punched James in the face and told him to either sing like a smart person or get another singer.

I doubt I'd ever be able to say anything so generous about the album you wish they'd made. The best I could have said was, "Well it had some catchy songs". TBH I'd rather listen to St. Anger over anything Megadeth has done since Risk. At least St. Anger has some kind of vitality to it. It sounds like the people involved care about something.
