Metallica

[NJNetz]

I always listen to St. Anger, and have yet to hear any other songs. So, recommend me some good Metallica songs.

Well, you really started with the wrong album. I'm a huge Metallica fan and I think St. Anger is a gigantic, flaming pile of shit. The only two songs that are worth my while on that disc are St. Anger and Frantic. Everything else sucks. As it is, I'll throw some recommendations out from all their albums.

Kill 'Em All
Whiplash
Hit The Lights
Seek and Destroy

Ride The Lightning
Ride The Lightning
Fade To Black
Creeping Death
Trapped Under Ice

Master of Puppets
Master of Puppets
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
Battery

...And Justice For All
One
Blackened
Dyer's Eve

Black Album
Nothing Else Matters
Wherever I May Roam
My Friend of Misery
Through The Never

Load
The House That Jack Built
Bleeding Me
The Outlaw Torn
King Nothing

ReLoad
The Unforgiven II
Attitude
Carpe Diem Baby
Fuel

Death Magnetic
All Nightmare Long
The Judas Kiss
That Was Just Your Life
My Apocalypse

I could have easily recommended more from each of their albums, but this list should be a pretty good start for you. And for what it's worth, you really can't go wrong with '80s Metallica. It's basically all good, with Master of Puppets probably being my favorite album from them as a whole. But I do feel sorry for you if you started out with St. Anger...album is...ew....I can't really put in to words how much I hate it as a Metallica fan. To me, it's basically an abortion of a CD, and something that should never have seen the light of day. Metallica would have been better off going 11 years without releasing an album between ReLoad and Death Magnetic than release St. Anger.

Also forgot to mention...checking out basically any single that they've released is also a good start, it's been pretty rare that they release a bad song to the radio. They may not be the best songs off their respective albums, but they're still good. Also, check out their live album, S&M, absolutely brilliant, and the addition of the orchestra makes for some of their classics to be even better.

I haven't listened to the whole album. Just the one song -- St. Anger.


Thanks for the list; I'll check it out.

No problem. And do yourself a big favor and not check out the rest of St. Anger, cause the only other worthwhile song is Frantic. If you must check it out, listen to their other stuff first though...it might give you an appreciation of how much better it is than St. Anger, lol.

Oh yea, and don't listen to JE when he comes in here and bashes Metallica. He doesn't know what he's talking about.

Megadeth >>> Metallica

 

[ToddMacCulloch11]

you should listen to anything but st. anger

 

[JE]

You just shouldn't listen to Metallica unless the album is Ride The Lightning.

 

[Moo2K4]

As I said, don't listen to JE.

 

[JE]

Only Laker fans listen to Metallica. Are you a Laker fan Joker? Is that what you want to be?

 

[BasX]

Laker fans does not equal Metallica fan. Fans of any bands come from anywhere. Again, both bands are good, very good.

DO NOT UNDERMINE ME, CANUCK. I will DESTROY you.

Metallica is classic. Whiskey In the Jar, Fuel are one of the best metal songs ever.

 

[JE]

After further listening, Ride The Lightning isn't that bad of an album. Hammett eats babies. Hetfield is so fuckin annoying though.

I'm not a big Metallica fan, but when I'm trying to chill out Orion (from Master of Puppets) is a song I like to listen to.
