Complex arrangements, odd time signatures, epic songs. No, I'm not talking about Yes or Dream Theater. I'm talking about Metallica and their 1988 offering "...And Justice for All." Here is Metallica at the height of their complexity and depth, taking off from where their masterpiece "Master of Puppets" left off. The subjectmatter is dark and, at times, dismal and forboding. But the music is enlightened, in your face metal. "...And Justice for All" was Metallica's answer to progressive metal before turning to simpler arrangements with the "Black Album." I would give five stars if the bass was actually existent in the mix. Jason Newstead, an excellent bass player, is missing from the album. The bass guitar is simply not there, and that's disappointing. Otherwise, it would be an truly excellent album.Read full review
This is a good, long-playing album, though its certainly not Metallica's best. If you're a guitar kid who likes to learn complicated riffs and show them off to your so-called friends, you'll like this album a whole lot. However, if you're a fan of well-mixed quality thrash albums to listen to over & over, you'll be disappointed with this album's production and overall quality. '...and Justice for All' sounds very tinny, thin, and to a degree incomplete and disjointed in comparison to their other works; it also does not come across as an instant classic as 'Master of Puppets' does. Make sure to turn up the bass more than you're used to while listening to this one, you might be able to hear it.
And Justice For All is not great album just a good one. It features some good songs and some stinkers. The big hit being ''ONE''. It also has a some solid yet not great guitar work. Plus it seems to be very laden with treble. It is not bad but by Metallica standards it is not really great. Unless you are a die hard fan you are better off with some of their other albums.
There is one thing that I have always said about Metallica and it will always be true even 20 years from now. What they did in their early years was way too monumental to be overshadowed by any "selling out" or "getting soft" that they may be falling into these days. They not only started something amazing, but set such a standard for metal that can never be surpassed. You can not compare Metallica to any other band because they had more talent, heart, and drive than any other band I have ever heard. These guys were just kids when they wrote songs like "Fade To Black" and "Master of Puppets", and listening to those two songs alone will show you the magnitude of their ability as amazing song writers. This band did way more in the first 7 years of being together than most people do in their entire careers, and that will never change..Read full review
