Listening to some mono mixes I did for an assignment at school. Straight from analogue 24-track (or 16-track in the case of Jack's really old tapes we get to mix from) to CD. We had to mix 6 songs in 3 hours and no panning allowed (mono only).

That has got to be one of the defining metal albums of all time. I must have listened to that album 500 times. That and Ride The Lightning. For that matter, all pre-Black album Metallica. Now, before I start a flame war, the "black" album was a good album overall, but not up to the standards of earlier Metallica, and it signalled the beginning of the end, for the band that really got me playing guitar.

*sigh*

Completely agree. Pre-black album Metallica is awesome. For me, black album has some good songs on it, but not nearly as good as their older stuff. The albums: Kill 'Em All, Ride The Lightning, and Master Of Puppets are just awesome stuff. The songs "Ride The Lightning", "Seek And Destroy", and "For Whom The Bell Tolls" are 3 of my favorite Metallica songs

It's funny, maybe it's because of my age and how old I was when I started listening to good music and picking up a guitar, but for me the Black Album was a big album for me guitar wise, and I've always been a fan of "modern" Metallica (I even kind of like St. Anger).

I'm not gonna tell you you're wrong, since it is completely a thing of taste. But I only like a few songs after the Black Album. And, personally, I'm not even a big fan of the Black Album itself (although there are 2-3 songs on it that I really like). I don't hate St. Anger. I just don't think it's very good. Kind of the same with 90's Metallica. Don't hate it, but don't really like it much either.

I remember when Load was coming out and I was totally pysched that Metallica was going to go back to complicated arrangements and multiple time/key changes within a song... but then they just went straight down the crapper. I was totally bummed for a long time after that. My faith in good music was shaken for a long time.....

I'm with you. That was supposed to be the summer of the return of metal with Metallica, Slayer, Queensryche, and Pantera all releasing new CDs.

While I never heard the Slayer disc, Load, Hear in the Now Frontier, and the Great Southern Trendkill all were major disapointments for me.

I wanted to rip my eyes out with a fork when I heard "Mama Said".

Oh, and the Black album ruled. 2nd best metal album of all time next to Awake :yesway:
