    I'm gonna have to listen to this entire album tonight at the gym.  It's been way too long and this thread got me excited to re-visit it.
    That’s really why I enjoy doing these. Have fun revisiting this classic album.

    Because people like to be assholes and vote against your song. :) 
    Sad but true.

    Ah!! Whew! You just saved me, was about to make a comment on F Me’s comment. Thx my friend!

    p.s. Was that why folks voted against Idiot Wind/Blood On The Tracks... just to break dankind’s heart?

    You're welcome, my friend. 👍

    Yes, that is exactly why Dan's faith in humanity was lost. :(
    He wore his Idiot Wind heart on his sleeve.

    Ha.  Should know better, right.  At one point he will pick an album that makes me feel strongly enough about the "best" song that I get spun up....but, I am not sure what album that will be.  Most records I love, there are many songs to love.
    (As is the case with this record.)

    Check it out Jersey Girl! @njnancy


    Yay, my favorite thread is back!!! Thanks @OffSheGoes35 !  

    I wasn't a Metallica listener but I know some songs, which aren't on here.  I'll be giving this album a virgin twirl. 

    Gotta get my heavy metal momma vibe going.  Hmmm...  hairspray, bandanas, skip the Wild Turkey.  

    I'll be back.  :rock_on:

    Now I remember why I stopped listening to new metal bands when death & thrash & speed  metal started.  But anyway. 

    Most sounded the same.  I love the singer's voice,  but the rest was just what it was. 

    This is their best album? Asking for a friend.


    Chose one of 5 easy castaways.

    In before people say this is the best one, or Master of Puppets (the follow up). They will also include their debut Kill Em All or Justice For All to round out a Top 3. 

    YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT ALLOWED TO TRAVEL OUTSIDE THE 80s*!

    * Roughly 40% will say though that The Black Album from 1991 is listenable. 

    The truth is this though:
