Reviewed on 12/6/99 by Jason Reich (1765)
Rating:
This CD is really amazing. The fact that great hits like "Ride the Lightning" For Whom the Bell Tolls", "Fade to Black", and "Call of Ktulu" all appear on one CD is amazing. Each of these songs alone could bring a band to stardom. The CD starts off soft for about 20 seconds, then explodes into a thrash happy "Fight fire with Fire". The next 20 minutes make music history with "Ride..", "For Whom..", and "Fade..", all classics. The album takes a short trip from the hits with trapped under ice, a superfast thrash song. It is all beautifully wrapped up with the instrumental "Call of Ktutlu". Listen carefully during the second verse and you'll hear the mad genius of Cliff Burton at work with a crazy solo, buried under the mix.
