ReviewsIncluded in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", Included in Q's "Best Metal Albums Of All Time" - "...Transformed them from cult metal heroes into global superstars....bringing a little refinement to their undoubted power...", "This record's diamond-tipped tuneage stripped the band's melancholy guitar excess down to melodic, radio-ready bullets and ballads.", "The album that propelled them out of the metal ghetto to true mainstream global rock superstardom.", Ranked #16 in Melody Maker's list of the top 30 albums of 1991 - "...In a committed move away from their thrash roots, METALLICA was slower, less complicated, and probably twice as heavy as anything they'd done before...", "...Rock's preeminent speed-metal cyclone...Metallica may have invented a new genre: progressive thrash..." - Rating: B+, 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Several songs...seem destined to become hard-rock classics....They effectively bridge the gap between commercial metal and the much harder thrash of Slayer, Anthrax and Megadeth...", Highly Recommended - "...A burnished black gem...", Ranked #52 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s."

Good condition, good P&P - good CD - all G O O D !!!
I am slowly building a new collection of music which I used to own, which, for one reason and another, my collection and I parted company. I am also ripping the CDs to mp3 for portable use. My daughter turned me on to Metallica, and this was my favourite Metallica album. Nuff SaidVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Remasters or Ruinmasters
Absolutely terrible production compared to the original. There is a low frequency background hum that almost sounds like low frequency feedback on some tracks. Nevermind theres some absolutely great Mettalica live performances availiable out there on other cd sets and every performance is different so you've gotta have em all.
