I've tried to listen to Master of Puppets but it didn't even send a tingle of energy through my spine. Same for Kill 'em All. Ride The Lightning has a few good songs but they tend to get old fast. I guess Metallica just isn't my band.

Load has, indeed, a couple (7 imho) excellent songs. And since the rest of the album is quite decent too... :dio:

I've grown to like pretty much every song on Load. Particularly, the first three songs, King Nothing, Bleeding Me, Cure, and especially The Outlaw Torn are great. Even Poor Twisted Me is a cool song once you realize the "whoa-is-me" lyrics are supposed to be a joke/parody.

And Justice is the only Metallica album I've given any real listening time because it didn't bore me to tears with thrash metal stupidity.


Yeah, the other albums tend to appeal to people who place some value in their dick. Perhaps the long songs on Justice comehow compensate something for you.


I haven't listened to Justice for like 3 1/2 years. :lol:

Metallica have always been boring to me.


Justice is a boring album... If it's the only album you really tried listening, that was a terrible mistake...


Well, I beg to differ. Justice is probably Metallica's overall best album IMO.

My favourite is The House That Jack Built which is, imho, the closest to early Metallica the modern one has ever got... Different sound, for sure, but the overall feel of the song brings me back to yesteryears...

As for Justice, I never could stomach that horrible drum sound and there are too many fillers, as opposed to Master Of Puppets - Metallica's magnum opus, for my taste.

The one thing Justice needed IMO was a crunchier guitar sound. The production gave the guitars a rather thin/weak sound. I really hope Metallica eventually decides to remaster it so that we can hear it the way it was meant to be heard.

...And Justice for All is a great album, although not easy to get into. It has to take time to grow on you.
