HOW DID I MISS "DYERS EVE"!?!

I give up. This exercise is futile.

 

Would it be easier to do albums? I have a feeling everyone would mess it up though by not putting Ride first.

Damn, didn't expect No Leaf Clover to get so much love. The only consistent thing I thought going into this was going to be Master of Puppets would be on everyone's.

 

Trying to rank songs is just insane. Albums... maybe.

Mine would probably be Puppets, Ride, Justice, Kill, Black, Hardwired, Load, Reload, Death Magnetic, St. Anger.

Not to say I don't like St. Anger

 

We should take it album by album and rank the songs. Would probably get me a little closer to building an actual top 10-20 list.

 

Kind of surprised at Fade to Black and One not being on every list, ha.

 

I'll amend my list and say that "Creeping Death" has to be a live version. Cliff/Jason doing their vocal part and the crowd chants are critical.

 

"Fade to Black" is, to my mind, one one of the most significant songs in the history of metal. Only Metallica would have mixed the acoustic guitars higher than the solo in that intro and it opened the whole genre to new possibilities

 

It's definitely my favorite softer/ballad type song of theirs. Another reason to chalk up Lightning as the best ☺

Really dig the new record, but the old stuff is just so, so good.

Man, that was hard.

 

I'm going to start ranking songs on each album.

Kill Em All...

Four Horsemen
No Remorse
Whiplash
Hit The Lights
Phantom Lord
Metal Militia
Seek N Destroy
Pulling Teeth
Motorbreath
Jump In The Fire

Fuck. I rearranged that like 20 times. I have no clue...

 

Oh man, here we go......

Hit the Lights
Whiplash
No Remorse
Four Horsemen
Seek N Destroy
Metal Militia
Motorbreath
Jump In The Fire
Phantom Lord
Anesthesia/Pulling Teeth

 

The Call of Ktulu
Creeping Death
Fight Fire With Fire
Fade to Black
Ride The Lightning
Escape
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Trapped Under Ice

man, this is difficult

 

This one will by the most difficult for me because its my favorite and all songs are 10/10.

Ride The Lightning
The Call of Ktulu
Fight Fire With Fire
Fade to Black
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Creeping Death
Escape
Trapped Under Ice

Even though I think the album flows perfectly as is.

 

Oh yeah, I'm not rearranging the flow of the album, I think they usually do a pretty great job of that... just ranking my favorites, but this is sooooo hard. Here we go with Puppets...

Disposable Heroes
Master of Puppets
Battery
Orion
Damage Inc.
Leper Messiah
Thing That Should Not Be
Sanitarium

 

My dad showed me Ronnie Rising Medley from the deluxe version of the new album and it's pretty badass

 

The Ronnie Rising medley is great. If you haven't heard the Merciful Fate one from Garage Inc., check it out NOW!

 

I've played Mercyful Fate on Guitar Hero; it's a fun one!

 

My top 10:
Master of Puppets
One
Blackened
Creeping Death
Battery
Fade to Black
Ride the Lightning
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Disposable Heroes
Wherever I May Roam

That was too hard. Also, it's very heavily weighted towards the old stuff, but I like almost everything they've done. The first few albums are just too good.

 

For me, I think I'd rank the album as is besides moving Orion up before Sanitarium.

 

Jason Newsted is such a great bassist. I love his work on the Black Album. When I eventually buy a bass, that album is going to be a priority to learn. Love his work in "My Friend of Misery" especially.

Also, is A Year & a Half in the Life of Metallica anyone else's favorite music doc? I've probably watched that thing a hundred times.
