Album Rating: 4.5
This album is the definition of a classic. I need to rethink my rating. The title track and For Whom the Bell Tolls are some of the bands best songs.

Yeah, you should probably drop your rating by .5; that’ll fix it.

I wonder how mindblowing this was upon release. I imagine quite a bit.

Metal died in 1984. Only 12 good albums have been released since then, most of them in 1985, having already been recorded in 1984. Metal reached its creative peak in albums such as Ample Destruction, Court in the Act, and Don't Break The Oath, elevating the genre to a true artform. However, thanks to Reign in Blood and Metallica, all of this potential has been squandered, and it has been turned into gimmick ridden noise for drunk idiots (ie, the lowest common denominator - stop trying to turn underground metal into diappershittercore buttrock.)

Surely Eg. I do remember Master Of Puppets & Justice For All, LP release. Both, so revolutionary and mind-blowing, yes. Cheers! m///

Say some more about it. I remember hearing Fade To Black and thinking 'woah can metal do this? Feelings and ballads in my metal?' I should look for reviews from that time if there are any.

@Eg, Both, “knock my socks off”. I was listening to a lot of Led Zep/Rush/Floyd but also branching into metal. The rhythm riffs of James Hetfield was such a revelation for me. Instantly hooked. I thought, man, these feels like a modern raw version of The grandmaster Beethoven rythmes. ( i dont care much about conventional conservative view in general, if i can make a link, i will explore it and then passionately express it, if i feel the timing is right) m///

"woah can metal do this? Feelings and ballads in my metal?'
I never understood the reaction to Fade to Black because songs like Remember Tomorrow and Here Come the Tears already existed in metal so there was obviously precedent.

It's not about it being better than either song, it's about the reaction to Fade to Black as being some unprecedented poignant development in the genre when those kinds of songs already existed from some bands that were fairly well-regarded/famous by this point.

the fact that fade to black is better is the point

Also Fade to Black was unprecedented to me.
I shall not claim to make this impression valid for the entire humankind. Some people like Casavir may indeed have heard Remember Tomorrow before and thought 'eh this has already been done'.
