So I decided to listen to this album this time, Its originally called Metallica but ...  Read the complete review

This is the album that turned Metallica from a bunch of long-haired, denim and leather type into the Arena-Rock monsters they eventually became. Enlisting the talents of producer Bob Rock, Metallica polished their sound with an accessible sheen, letting the masses get involved with what metal fans had been enjoying for the previous ...  Read the complete review

This is a heavy hitting album and it seems impossible that this beautiful noise comes from three guitars and a ...  Read the complete review

This wasmy first metallica album. The pinnacle of heavy metal, it is unarguably one of the best heavy metal/ hard rock albums of all time, although not as good as other metallica albums! the album starts with the immence crushing power of Enter Sandman, the bands defining track.

The Black album (as it is affectionately known by Metallica fans) ranks up there as one of the best heavy metal albums ever. There is not a single bad song on this album, and even though it is 17 years old it holds it's own against more recent albums from other bands. I never get bored of this album when I listen to it as it has everything a ...  Read the complete review

This is metallicas last great album. Lets hope the new one is just as good. The songs are slowed down some since and justice for all. There are some very heavy guitars present here.'sad but true' is very heavy and doom laden like 'for whom the bells toll'. This isnt really a heavy metal album because the guitars are to damn heavy. I ...  Read the complete review

The Bay Area thrash movement of the late 1980's produced several hard-hitting, angry and in-your-face bands, like Testament, Flotsam And Jetsam and Mordred, who all played 150 mph metal and played it loud. Heading the movement were Metallica, whose Kill Em All and Ride The Lightning albums are benchmarks of the genre to this day. Come the ...  Read the complete review

There has long been a debate over which Metallica album represents the American quartet at their most inspired and technically sophisticated, but there is little doubt that their self-titled fourth album brought their brand of heavy metal music firmly into the limelight. Commonly referred to as The Black Album by both ...  Read the complete review

First of all, this CD is not called Metallica. It is called the Black Album. If your asking if it is as good as the rest of Metallica's albums, I'm sorry to say it is not even close. They slow it down big time in this album and are advertising their album to a lot of pop fans. I will break it down song by song to show you what I mean. ...  Read the complete review

(N.B, I apologise for not being able to write James Hetfield's "yeah.") Metallica's most well-known, and widely-considered finest, album was released in 1991, and received a phenomenal number one slot both in the US and the UK. The band had broken new ground for mainstream metal, and the first single, "Enter ...  Read the complete review

There is no doubt in my mind that this is a great album if not slightly overstated. I would have to disagree with all those who say this is Metallica’s finest album, in my view that honour would be more attributable to the likes of Master of puppets or Ride the lightning. This album does have a more commercial edge to it, but this does not ...  Read the complete review

Metallica's self titled, or commonly known as the Black Album (possibly a hint of contradiction with the beatles white album, as is the contradiction between pop bands and true metal bands), is the most common of the entire Metallica collection. The album in my view does have the greatest range of music on it, although i prefer the Master of ...  Read the complete review
