Does what it does well but I can't hear anything spectacular. Almost the same album as Master Of Puppets too.

This album has been bashed too much by metal purists. Sure, it is a different album from the heavy stuff of their old days, but it is one damn good album, completely void of filler. Metallicas top moment.

I like this album better that their previous ones , maybe because i don't enjoy metal too much... Enter Sandman is amazing, and Nothing Else Matters is a pretty good ballad.

I cant find a single good track in this album. Its clear that from here onwards Metallica chose to follow a more commercial style, which affected in a negative way their music. Ride the Lighting and Master of Puppets are waaaay better.

The precise point where Metallica took a hard left turn into Lamesville.

puppets and ride the lightning are much much better. I think the black album is highly overrated IMO, but what do i know.

"Don't Tread On Me" is the best IMO.Almost clasic vocal melodies and great riffs too bad they lost the progressive side.
