Amazing stuff [2]. I would put Killing is my Business up there as well when speaking of traditional thrash.

Agreed hard

Killing is great too, but I prefer the bigger punk influence on this and SNM

Album Rating: 4.0

Feel The Fire and The Legacy are also up there

Agreed.

The Legacy sure is very entertaining, almost to the same extent as Darkness Descends. After many months of hearing the first four Metallica albums, this is still my favorite after Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets.

Spectrum of Death, To Mega Therion and The Legacy are better

The Legacy rules, but I'm not sure I'd go that far.

After listening through their first 5 again, this is definitely my 2nd favorite Metallica. Just so absolutely fun to jam to. Ranking their first 4 is pretty difficult though.
