  • Awesome Album

    This has everything you want in Metallica. Fight Fire With Fire and Trapped Under Ice bring you the speed. Fade to Black will give you the power ballad with a good solo at the end. The Call of Ktulu is a great instrumental. For Whom the Bell Tolls is a great mid pace song that is often played on the radio. The title cut has a fantastic arrangement of different riffs and moods. Creeping Death is my favorite that just kicks you in the face with a story from the book of Exodus. Perhaps a certain bay area rival inspired that song. Highly recommended for anyone just getting into Metallica.

  • Masterpiece

    CD, case, and lyrics booklet were all in outstanding condition. The album itself is some of Metallica's best work, one of the best thrash metal albums ever made. Great production, striking the perfect balance between rawness and a clean and crisp sound, a great treatment of some very heavy subject matter in the lyrical content, and some amazing riffs. The song Escape is definitely a weak point of the album, but the rest of the record is filled with classic after classic. Must have for any metal fan.

  • Highly technical and definitive album of the 80's!

    So much more than metal. The technical skills combined with grace and out right talent of the band are displayed with pristine clarity on this early Metallica album. You can really tell they're still "hungry". .. a true masterpiece of Heavy Metal. 🎸
