Oh. We're discussing it here now too? Okay.

 

So I've only heard St Anger, Black Album, S&M and Death Magnetic in the past two decades and, except for the most popular cuts, the rest of their discography is pretty much a blind spot for me. For the early stuff, would you recommend giving the remasters a listen instead of the original albums? The formers are the only versions available on Spotify.

 

ah, outrage bait, never change

 

yeah bonkers list.

 

The album with no audible bass is unlistenable. Haha what a choice…

 

Definitely clickbait garbage article

 

the remasters are good!

 

Load being better than Justice is immediately disqualifying

 

I mean Hardwired being last immediately told me it was outrage bait, Lulu being #5 was just the icing on the cake

It's not a serious list, it's there purely to provoke shares and negative reactions on social media

 

then they should've made lulu no. 1

 

i’ll play.. ranking studio albums:

12 lulu
11 kill
10 reload
09 anger
08 garage
07 magnetic
06 load
05 justice
04 ride
03 hardwired
02 black
01 puppets

and imo, there is no ‘worse’ metallica album. i see what they were tryin to do with lulu, and musically, metallica does quite well. mistress dread, junior dad, dragon are solid. my main gripe with kill is the sound, as in if they were to rerecord the album with today’s mastering, it could be in my top 5 easily. my goto is their live performance of the entire album from the orion fest in … 2012? it’s easy to point to the drum can snare and lack of solos, but st anger is a solid effort, even easier to understand if you watch the ‘some kind of monster’ doc.

master i think is their defining album. black is their most mainstream, which i think they did well folowing that mainstream template with hardwired. hardwired has a bit of everything as far as styles: slow sludgy ‘dream mo more’, groovy ‘now that we’re dead’, even old school thrash in ‘spit out the bone’. lux aererna sounds like a continuation of what they did with hardwired, and i’m ready for it.

 

I would have far less qualms about liking St. Anger if they actually played their instruments properly instead of going for this weird idea of what a garage band would sound like, as if that's what anyone wanted to hear from a Metallica album.

Thinking in that sense, it's actually not that surprising they collaborated with Lou Reed.

 

Absolutely wild list

 

The production is bad but it’s weird to say they don’t “play their instruments properly”. There are some excellent riffs on that album

 

I'm mainly talking about the drums. The glaringly obvious issue that almost everybody comments on when talking about this album.

 

That site is garbage in general so I shouldn’t be surprised, but dear god that list is hilariously bad

 

Nice another good one.

Now that single day passes are available me and a buddy got tickets for the first night in Jersey. Not the best seats but still pumped!

 

Yep, I'll be going

 

Has "listening parties in cinemas" been a thing for a while? It feels recent, I remember Rammstein doing it for Zeit.

 

I think it's a fairly recent thing; I went to the Rammstein one here in Oslo and it was great; people were bobbin' their heads back and forth, rockin' out, it was great. I also saw the Coldplay concert one a few months ago and that was fun too.
