also yes all of these are still maxed out at 45+ minutes despite only being 6-7 tracks besides st. anger, really puts into perspective how long these songs are |

04.21.23 | They should definitely aim for something like this, I’d have included Wasting My Hate, Where the Wild Things Are and All Within My Hands tho |

04.21.23 | one lp is like 43 minutes, so that does not surprise me, since cd's became the new medium and were 80 minutes long most groups were making 60+ minute albums thus 2 lp's |

04.21.23 | I agree with a whole lot of this...
I'd take 'Cyanide' off of DM, and have 'Broken, Beat and Scarred' on there (or 'Hate Train' from 'Beyond Magnetic'--again, puzzling to me why that was left off the main album), and definitely 'Dream No More' off of H...tSD because I think it's kinda shite and the only low point on a very solid first half, but other than that, good picks IMO. |

04.21.23 | @wham the main thing that surprised me was that kill em all is 50 minutes and master is 55 minutes yet they both apparently fit on one lp???? mainly cause those albums never felt all that long to begin with |

04.21.23 | Ancient (CD age) proverb: Just because one may use 80 minutes, doesn't mean one SHOULD use 80 minutes. |

04.21.23 | are you sure Masters is one lp, I have to look and but I thought that my masters is 2 lps |

04.21.23 | yeah, most of the edits are fair |
AlexKzillion
04.21.23 | @wham i'm just going of wikipedia. would not be surprised if that's wrong tho as that seems excruciatingly long for one lp |

04.21.23 | Alex bro trying to do this with 1 is a sin
Props for 7 though, that would make for an amazing record |

04.21.23 | I think Justice is perfect just the way that it is. Maybe shave a couple minutes off the title track, but that's it. |
DoofDoof
04.21.23 | Dropping ‘The Frayed Ends of Sanity’ is tough to take
‘Chasing Light’ is the best tune on the new one - essential inclusion, drop ‘Too Far Gone’
Also, I like the idea the cream would come to the top if Metallica had been forced to limit to 45 minutes…but also Metallica released albums a lot faster before this period. You might have got most of this material just over an extra four or five albums |

04.21.23 | you’re definitely on to something with justice although I’d drop tlitd and throw in shortest straw
also add ronnie to load yeah i said it |

04.22.23 | One lp length (~42 min) is the sweet spot. Doesn’t wear out it’s welcome. Feel somewhat cheated with a 30-35 min album. And 60+ min - typically get bored/distracted. EPs (ex. Beyond Magnetic) are perfect 4 leftover tracks. |
