Don't plan on buying Ride the lightning, DO IT, DO IT NOW!!! (Beg, Borrow and in an extreme circumstance as this, consider stealing the money for it)
Every single song on the album is a masterpiece (My particular fav being "Creeping Death")
I started listening to Metallica back in the 80's when I was still at school. I have listened to them evolve as a band, and whilst the "New Metallica" is not to everyones taste, they are still great musicians.
They are certainly more "Radio Friendly" nowadays, but S & M is still a good album, and gives an interesting new slant to some old favouirites.
Well thats my piece said, you may or may not agree, but if we were all the same wouldn't the world be a boring place!!
Take it Eazy
