The main reason this isn't a 9/10 for me is how repetitive and slow it feels. Listening to it on Youtube at 1.25x speed produces a better song than it is at 1x speed - I have a feeling the entire album is gonna be like that. I don't think they can make an 8 minute song as good as the ones on Master of Puppets/And Justice for All... anymore, unless they lean further into a prog metal sound than they have since 1988, and I don't think they're gonna end up doing that.
