"That song is the only reason I don't have this at a 5, because it just doesn't strike me as an opener. Something about it just strikes me as really underwhelming"



This is like the most unpopular metallica opinion ever opinioned

Nah most metallica "hot takes" are just praise for their late career stuff, black album sucks, justice sucks etc. which are pretty mild considering how over-discussed the band is



Giving a harsh critique to a track on here that isn't Trapped Under Ice or Escape on the other hand, is certified nuclear

Fight Fire With Fire is better than Battery, honestly. It's a good song but the latter's the weakest on MOP. Damage Inc embodies the straightforward thrash on there the best.

"lmfao in what universe is Battery the worst song on master of puppets"



It's not bad but it feels a bit rhythmically rudimentary in some parts, especially when compared to all the other songs who do something rather novel for the time. The album on the whole is a 5 though.

Calling FFWF not a good opener is certainly a hot take! I do agree that the acoustic intro is pointless though. That fucker should start straight off with the main riff.

Battery is easily in my top 5 Metallica songs, I will ignore the slander above.

FFWF acoustic intro blew my 15 y/o mind even if it doesn't really have any business with the rest of the song, that shit stays

Kirk is such a funny dude. He has recorded both one of the best and worst solos of all times (Ride the Lightning and The End of the Line)
