Some good MetallicA tunes that i think don't get listened to much r

Metal Militia
Ride The Lightning
Damage inc
Dyer's Eve
Frayed ends of sanity
The Struggle Within
Fixxxer

i agree with surge that "the frayed ends of sanity" is a great song (one of my favs) that doesnt really get listened to that much, and is sometimes even described as filler!!

my fav met songs are: hit the lights/ the 4 horsemen/ ride the lightning/ fade to black/ call of ktulu/ master of puppets/ orion/blackened/ and justice 4 all/ harvestor of sorrow/ frayed
ends of sanity/ to live is to die/ unforgiven/ nothin else matters...

i know this doesnt really narrow it down much! but i kept it as short as i culd (dont wanna bore u do i? ;) )

oh yeah whoever it was who was wondering weather to get kill em' all, or not, needs thir head examining! its a truley brilliant album (not so much of a masterpiece, like master of puppets) and captures metallica when they were young, naieve, creative, poor, and unfamous. it also gives off a great amount of energy just listenin to it! the production is a bit "rough", but is made up by the quality of songs.
highlights are : hit the lights (metallicas first ever song!)/ the four horsemen (the middle guitar solo absolutely kicks ***!!!!)/ whiplash (classic!)/ seek and destroy (this is still on the live set list... so that gives some idea of the quality!)
the album is also a great tribute to cliff, as it shows off his talent really welll and he has his bass solo on it too (pulling teeth) which is stunning.
this album proves that metallica have always been amazing!

I don't know why Master of Puppets is so popular, sure it's a great album, but I would put it in third place
1. 'Ride the lightning' 2. '... And Justice for all' and then Master of puppets.

My favourite Metallica solo is in Ride the Lightning, and my favourite Metallica songs are Ride the Lightning and Orion. Favourite albums are Lightning, Master and Justice. I dislike all their videos, but then again, I'm not a music video fan. For me, Sanitarium is better than One. I like One, but the heavy parts don't sound good to me (though they have some great clean riffs in that song). I am not a fan of Load, Reload, St. Anger (though Load has some good songs), and hopefully, like Maiden did with Brave New World, Metallica will redeem themselves as the kings of metal. About the whole classic metal and perfection; I believe the bands that laid the roots for metal are Maiden, Sabbath and Priest, and although I believe that bands like Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Death definitely helped metal evolve, they did not perfect it, and no one has yet. Metal continues to evolve (not Nu metal, the stuff you won;t ever hear on TRL) through bands like Children of Bodom, Shadows Fall, Opeth, and Iced Earth.

I use to love Metallica. They really got me into loving music in the first place, so for that they will always be great to me. I still litsen to Load quite a bit, I just love that album and always will.

Ya, Metallica was the first metal band I liked, and from there, I discovered more and more metal bands. I can remember when I first heard their songs (Whiplash and Master of Puppets were my first two) I was completely blown away, as I had never heard anything like it before.

I wasnt aware that metallica never lost their crown as kings of metal...

my fav bassist was Jason Newstead but for sum reason dude left but who cares they gOT Robert Trugillo hes pretty dope he has a good energy but id like to see metallica go back th their roots and see sum master of pupppets or ride the lightning type album But every band matures as they get older maybe they got a few good ones left in em My fav album would have to be Black or MOP 2 hard to decide oh yeah ST. Anger has a couple good songs but by far worst album they have made:chug:

They should release one last thrash album that will make no one ever forget them and call it Metal Up Your A[B][/B]ss.

Something else : metallica related though
Do you guys like Apocalyptica?? they've done a lot of metallica covers on cellos, personally I think it's amazing. But then again I love cello music.
Opinions??

Yeah I've heard of them. Some of their is really good, like the Fade To Black cover they did. I don't remember if they did the ending solo to fade to black though but the ending rythmns they did were awesome.

Hey, its my opinion.. I don't think Load, Reload and St. Anger are good. And even if you do, you cannot consider Load and Reload metal... and not many people consider St. Anger to be a "king of metal" CD, even if they do like it.

*Turns on flamethrower and points it at St. Anger*
Why God, Why?

Shiggity shiggity BUMP!

have you ever listened to an album before load?

weey my first post in this thread
i feel so good now

anyways:
favourite song: probably One, maybe Orion, maybe anesthesia
fav. band member: cliffy burton RIP mate
fav solo: tapping one in One or anesthesia
fav riff: that one in Orion (from about 1:00 till 1:40)

thats about all i think... i have masters of puppets and the black album, oh yeah and i dont mind st anger ,i thought re-load was worse.

ok later

Metallica used to kick some serious ***.
And i think that they are gonna make
a huge comeback.
but thats just me going optimistic
(something that usually doesnt happen)...

It's still metal, doesn't mean load/reload is thrash metal, but it's metal alright.
