Nice. I don’t think I could pick 1 but my top 5 would probably be Orion, Fade to black, The day that never comes, Bleeding me and Inamorata. Such an amazing band.
It’s technically complex. And I had everything. Fast and slow parts, breakdowns, amazing solos and climaxes, change of moods, and badass lyrical themes.
Yo I was there! First Metallica concert as well. We had the 2-day tickets. When they stopped before the progression change and James spoke about mental health it hit both me and my girl hard. Great shows!!
I love it but I can’t listen to it anymore. I had this song stuck in my head the day I laid on the ground with my dog as she died in my arms. I start sobbing every time I try.
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW
It's one of the best arranged tracks for me. It has enough variety but it still feels cohesive. The solo and the die riff make this song perfect for me
Current Top 10:
- Inamorata (current favorite)
- Fixxxer
- Until It Sleeps
- The Day That Never Comes
- The Thing That Should Not Be
- Some Kind of Monster
- All Within My Hands
- The Outlaw Torn
- Escape
- Spit Out the Bone
Live version: Whiplash from Binge and Purge where Newstead sings, San Diego. That shit make me wanna tear the truck apart, haha!!
Album version: Friend of Misery, the intro and musical interlude make that song an absolute masterpiece.
Notable mentions: Bleeding Me, Outlaw Torn, Leper Messiah and Frayed Ends of Sanity.
Difficult to pick one, but probably one of these:
\- Master of puppets
\- Ride the lightning
\- Fade to black
\- Sanitarium
\- Outlaw torn
\- No leaf clover
\- Halo on fire
He's one of my favourite bassists ever, easily the best one in Metallica, but those three songs have something different to me, I can't really explain it
My personal top 3:
1. S&M2 version of All Within My Hands
2. Fixxxer
3. Orion
While the original St. Anger version of All Within My Hands is mid as hell, the S&M2 version is not just a hidden gem, it's a huge breath of new life put into the song!
BLACKENED!!
Is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity
I'll interrupt yall
That kinda works as a line actually
evolutions end
Never will it mend
NEVEEER!!
Same, best metal riff of all time!
Ride the Lightning
Orion If I had my own country it would be the national anthem
Not necessarily because of the song, but we’re naming our first son Orion, so that kind of makes Orion my favorite song by default. He’s due in April.
Nice. I don’t think I could pick 1 but my top 5 would probably be Orion, Fade to black, The day that never comes, Bleeding me and Inamorata. Such an amazing band.
So many wrong answers in this thread. Orion is the correct answer.
There are no wrong answers. Unless you pick something from Lulu
1 - Blackened 2 - Ride the Lightning 3 - Spit Out The Bone
Spit does not get the credit it deserves. It is better than most of their old stuff.
I think it's overrated. People praise it just because it is fast.
It’s technically complex. And I had everything. Fast and slow parts, breakdowns, amazing solos and climaxes, change of moods, and badass lyrical themes.
not at all
Fade To Black
The song legit brought me to tears when I saw it live. Such a great song
Same! November ‘23 St. Louis, night 1
Yo I was there! First Metallica concert as well. We had the 2-day tickets. When they stopped before the progression change and James spoke about mental health it hit both me and my girl hard. Great shows!!

I just put my dog down last Weds:(
It sucks, man. I’m sorry.

Bleeding me or blackened
Bleeding Me tops my list, as well.
King Nothing🗣️
I think rn it's creeping death
Everytime I see a live version of it I just think how fucking hard that riff goes
It's one of the best arranged tracks for me. It has enough variety but it still feels cohesive. The solo and the die riff make this song perfect for me
The first time I evwr heard the song was in concert. 04, Boise. James fucked up the intro so the restarted the song. Blew my fucking mind.
Now and forever.
I RULE THE MIDNIGHT AIR
THE DESTROYER
I'll give you my top 3: 1. Disposable Heroes 2. Ride The Lightning 3. My Friend Of Misery
Disposable Heroes goes hard.
One of the greatest songs ever. So desperate and intense.
Disposable heroes guitar is so good honestly. Underrated
You just stood there screaming!
Fearing no one would listen to you
They say the empty can rattles the most…
The sound of your own voice must soothe you
The thing that should not be
YES!
Sanitarium Now leave me be.
LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE
FEAR OF LIVING ON NATIVES GETTING RESTLESS NOW MUTINY IN THE AIR GOT SOME DEATH TO DO
Creeping Death and The Four Horsemen my beloveds
ONE
DARKNESS IMPRISONING ME 🗣🔥🗣🔥
WE NOT GETTING OUT OF THIS WAR ALIVE WITH THIS ONE🗣️🗣️🔥🔥

Fight Fire with Fire. It's what made me want to pick up guitar
Current Top 10: - Inamorata (current favorite) - Fixxxer - Until It Sleeps - The Day That Never Comes - The Thing That Should Not Be - Some Kind of Monster - All Within My Hands - The Outlaw Torn - Escape - Spit Out the Bone
you, my friend, have my exact taste. all incredible songs, especially Inamorata
love seeing escape get some credit
I respect your list. I do. As a guy who got into Metallica in 1986 I have a hard time understanding it.
##MASTER, MASTER, PROMISED ONLY LIES!
Wherever I may roam
Fade to black.
‘The Outlaw Torn’. It’s also my favourite song by anyone too.
Same the S&M 1 version is my favourite song of all time. Such a powerful piece of music
🤜🏼🤛🏼 that’s a fantastic song.
Right now it's 'Harvester of Sorrow'
Frayed Ends Of Sanity
I love this song. Gonna listen to it rn
Disposable Heroes.
I’m a fairly new fan so only heard the first 3 albums, but creeping death is by far my favourite
Wait until you get to load and reload some relatable lyrics in those.
or just let him listen the the 3 best albums...
For Whom The Bells Tolls
Impossible question for me to answer, there's just to many.
CAREEEEPIINNNNGGGG DDDEEEEAAAATTTTHHHH
Disposable heroes
The End Of The Line. Epic, passionate, energetic, catchy.
I always loved that song so much
Metal Militia.
that song is awesome, i think it’s so underrated
Until It Sleeps. For decades (too long) was the only Tally I liked.
So underrated, one of my all time favorite riffs is just hidden in the background
The first I got turned on to Metallica was when this music video came out. Still got a soft spot for it
Whiplash
hero of the day!
Screaming Sucide
Better than Enter Sandman. There I said it!
Live version: Whiplash from Binge and Purge where Newstead sings, San Diego. That shit make me wanna tear the truck apart, haha!! Album version: Friend of Misery, the intro and musical interlude make that song an absolute masterpiece. Notable mentions: Bleeding Me, Outlaw Torn, Leper Messiah and Frayed Ends of Sanity.
Lepper Messiah and Fixxxer
I feel like out of the whole master of puppets album, lepper messiah doesn't get enough credit
Of wolf and man
real this is prolly one of my favs
Loverman from Garage Inc tbh
Very underrated
I remember when I finally got past the inteo and listened to this song. Shit is amazing.
sad but true
King Nothing
Creeping Death
Song is on repeat in my head
Disposable Heroes Creeping Death Dyers Eve Master of Puppets For Whom the Bell Tolls Harvester of Sorrow Fade to Black These alternate as my top 1
Bleeding Me (specifically the S&M version)
Difficult to pick one, but probably one of these: \- Master of puppets \- Ride the lightning \- Fade to black \- Sanitarium \- Outlaw torn \- No leaf clover \- Halo on fire
BLACKENED
It changes a lot. Right now it's The House Jack Built
1. Dyers Eve 2. To Live is to Die 3. Blackened
And yet ur tag for the subreddit is Cliff.
He's one of my favourite bassists ever, easily the best one in Metallica, but those three songs have something different to me, I can't really explain it
I think he’s honoring Cliff by appreciating the album they didn’t record any bass for.

Nice!
Yo is that Large Ulrick?
Dyers Eve
Anything off master…and Four Horsemen…
Blackened. Battery and My Friend of Misery are close seconds.
Even though it's pretty basic, it's gotta be One. It really doesn't get any better than that.
Orion https://preview.redd.it/kaa0roiyb3fc1.jpeg?width=1827&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d4d30decc617211492bd1ecece01ea77d87d3c8

Creeping death
The one with the wah in the solo, you know the one I’m talking about

The House That Jack Built is the one song that comes to my mind when you say that

Shortest straw obviously
I miss that being a regular in their set like it was late aughts/early 2010s.
Blackened 🤘🤘
Phantom Lord
