    And Justice for All is fucking great.

    I prefer it over MoP and RtL. I know most fans will tell you different, but And Justice is their heaviest album. Truth.

    Fuck Metallica.

    (coming from a big fan back in the day)

    The Napster stuff wasn't just misguided and about the money, thats the thing. It was also hypocritical, look into the beginning of their career.

    When Cliff Burton died, Les Claypool auditioned to play bass.
    They said he was too good for Metallica.
    I love that story.

    I'm not a huge fan at all. Don't even find much interest in their type of rock. But S&M fuckin' rocked!

    S&M is one of my favorite live CDs ever, but apparently real Metallica fans don't like it at all.

    And Justice For All was their last creative album. Everything before that is great.

    I like Kill 'Em All, but for whatever reason, it's also hard for me to get into it sometimes.

    If you take the 3 or 4 good songs from Load and the 3 or 4 good songs from Reload and combined them into one album, it'd be decent. Way too much crap throughout, though.

    the best albums are Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice For All. Also good, but harder to get into, is Kill 'Em All.

    Metallica (Black Album), Load, Reload, and Garage Inc. are very hit or miss. Live Shit: Binge and Purge is well worth the price. Death Magnetic and St. Anger are absolute crap, don't waste your time or money.

    Battery is such a perfect first track for that album. starts you out with an adrenaline-inducing kick to the gut and gets you ready for the amazing heavy shit you're about to enjoy.
