At least he didn't sing the shitty Unforgiven song off that album.

I couldn't wait for the release of that album.  After listening to it for about a hour in the car - it was the first album from them that I didn't love.   Of Wolf and Man and Through the Never are my favorites, and I like Enter Sandman because of the Rivera factor, but I found that album mostly forgettable, as well as most of the subsequent stuff that followed.

I haven't given Death Magnetic a chance, to be honest.  But I like All Nightmare Long.

The Black album had about 4 songs that were good.

From the ones below, I'd add Holier Than Thou.

It was definitely their swan-song... I bought Load and it was a Load alright... Ain't my bitch was good and the rest was absolute shit.

Yeah.  I got what they were trying to do, but Bob Rock was the producer and he took away their crunch.  He wanted Kirk Hammet to play the blue.  James starting singing too much.   I think when I saw the "Hero of the Day" video I stopped checking on what they were doing.

AJFA was awesome.   After that , not so much.   They are still awesome live, but their new stuff is just blah.

Have to add wherever I may roam to the black album likes.

That was maybe 50% of the tracks were good, 50 bad?

Agreed, but the mastery of the older Metallica albums was the entire albums were awesome.   I could probably sing along w every song on every album from Kill em all to Black Album.   Load, re load, st anger, death magnetic have a few good songs, but they lack that coherence of the earlier albums. 

I have been listening to ride the lighting lately.   True masterpiece fro beginning to end.

Metallica sucks. Even their old stuff is diseased now because so much shit from their newer stuff contaminated it all. Fuck them and their napster, load, pyschology circle jerks.

I agree about the album part.  RTL is great.  For Whom the Bells Tolls probably contains the crunch riff that I most associate with Metallica.   Fight Fire With Fire kicks you right in the nuts to start, and it never lets up.  Even when they started wussing out, they played that live.  The album is near perfect.

Puppets will always be my favorite though.
