Completely forgot how great The Outlaw Torn is. Shame, there is so much dull shit you have to get through to get to it.

Unless you’re listening to it on tape, there’s nothing between you and your favorite tracks ;)

True. This album should have just been like 7 songs. Lots of it should have been cut. My version would be:



1. King Nothing

2. Until It Sleeps

3. Bleeding Me

4. Hero of the Day

5. Thorn Within

6. Mama Said

7. The Outlaw Torn

It is also only 44 minutes shaving 35 minutes of filler.

I ended up combining the good songs from both Load albums and renaming it Load(s). I also superimposed the artwork to make a new cover. I also cut the entire Shit ending from The Memory Remains.

Yeah, I am doing that too. Just need to listen to Reload again as I haven't listened to it in over a year. Well, outside of Fuel because that song is bloody awesome.

Yeah, Fuel is a banger, especially given the time period.

It certainly is. Gimme Fuel, Gimme Fire, Gimme that which I desire is probably the single greatest lyric and lyrical delivery Metallica have ever created.

they should've just made one single album with the best tracks from Load and Reload together. Such a disappointment they destroyed one amazing album by splitting it like that.

i dunno it's pretty easy to just assemble your own "custom load" now innit? and people never seem to agree what should truly stay & go on any double album, compare any two lists of people trying to pare down Mellon Collie or The White Album

^ true, but I think it's more about the disappointment/frustration at it not being the "canon" version of the album

The production on this and Reload are basically as bad as St. Anger

Combine the best of Load, Reload, and Garage Inc and you got a super solid 4/5
