Rating: 
"eight songs?" yup, and its still an hour long. Metallica has a knack for using the two-in-one song writing approach with lengthy epics like "Sanitarium" and "master of puppets". The fast-paced metal blitz is standard metallica, and this album stands right up there with "Ride" and "Justice". Hetfeild shows some intelligent somgwriting with the anti-drug "master of puppets" and the anti-war "disposable heroes". This album stays mostly consistent except for a small break in the action at "orion", an instrumental. Though its nothing compared to "ktulu" its still riff-packed and bass heavy. Finally, this album marks Cliff Burton's unfortunate departure from the band, and James and Lars "take over". There is also a 24k gold-master CD out now for those rabid audiophiles. Get it |
