| Ride The Lightning Improved
i was getting really bugged by the postion of fade to black in the track listing and started to think where it would be better off. then i thought i might as well do the whole thing. | 1 | Metallica For Whom The Bell Tolls
They almost got it in the right place at number two, but i think it would be a better opener with the du du du dun dunderrr | 2 | Ride The Lightning
This is fine. | 3 | Trapped Under Ice
Despite being a great tune, where it is it kills the ending to fade to black. here it could just build on the awesomeness of rtl. | 4 | The Call of Ktulu
This'll carry on the good stuff, but make everyone concentrate again, and change the mood which will important for the slight comedown of the next couple of songs. | 5 | Escape
weakest track on the album, still good but there are others deserving of more important positions. hopefully it wont get too much in the way here. | 6 | Fight Fire With Fire
The only other iffy track, not bad again, but suffers from being the opener, which for whom the bell tolls would do better. here though it may have to lose the acoustic opening. | 7 | Creeping Death
Could be a good lead into Fade to Black, similar tone? i don't know, just sounds like it would work. | 8 | Fade To Black
Surely the fucking name of the song means it should be at the end, let alone the the song itself. awesome solos to finish the album with | |

06.30.11 | maybe they'd still be playing in bars with this track listing or maybe it would make no difference at all but whatever.
i didn't try to pointlessly move songs which is why two are in the same place. | Trebor.
06.30.11 | Cool idea | AliW1993
06.30.11 | Interesting list idea, can't say that I agree with your positionings, though.
I've always thought that Creeping Death would be a cool opener. | thumbcrusher
06.30.11 | good shout i just think it would be easier to lead off from for whom the bell tolls, starting witth creeping death would be hard to carry on from as it's one of the harder and faster tracks on the album.
saying that though i almost put it first, and it has a great intro itself. | DominionMM1
06.30.11 | I like the idea, but 'The Call Of Ktulu' is best left for last. The end is so epic, and is a perfect way to close the album. And 'Fight Fire With Fire' is a perfect intro track. | SpiritCrusher2
06.30.11 | I really can't imagine fight fire... on any other position than #1, that's like a perfect opener.
btw has anybody noticed how metallica has similar track positioning on RTL, MOP and AJFA? they start with one of the faster, thrashy songs (ffwf, battery, blackened) then comes the title track, ballads are always #4, and instrumentals are always near/at the end | thumbcrusher
06.30.11 | it sounds to me though that fight fire with fire would be better on kill em all and doesn't really fit as well with this, so that's why i don't think it's a great introduction to the album.
and yeah, i've noticed that spirit | acorncheese
06.30.11 | i getting was getting | thumbcrusher
06.30.11 | oops cheers man. edited | MUNGOLOID
06.30.11 | just switch creeping death and call of ktulu and you'll be good. | SpiritCrusher2
06.30.11 | yeah, thought I was being capt. obvious again :D
but fight fire with fire on kill em all? really? :/ | thumbcrusher
06.30.11 | i think it's more in that style, just old, fast all out thrash. | JT2
07.01.11 | I like the album as it is tbh. | Ire
07.01.11 | it would be a better album if they replaced all the songs with songs by pretty much any other band | TomArnoldsArmpit
07.01.11 | You think too much about silly things, like metallica albums. | Asiatic667
07.01.11 | metallica can suuck my anal cavity |
