Very surprised at this showing. I also know who exactly to blame for this.

it just occurred to me, did anyone vote for this

Funny you should mention it.

Same dude who voted SBT #1 threw that one in there as well.

Was never the same after I learned it wasn't "Sand Patrol". It wasn't among the trio of black albums songs that slid off of my ballot (Of Wolf and Man, which placed above, probably should have been). A hell of a song though, undermined by being way overplayed during its heyday. Is there a black album single that wasn't overplayed though?

This was the overwhelming winner of metallica metallica poll poll

Seek & Destroy would have been my #1

Man, I just don't get SBT.

I snickered at Of Wolf & Man like the needlessly stuck-up Metallicaficinado that I consider myself to be, but even that "Off to the pool deck eyyyyye go... " has a catchy gallop to it.

This one though --- that's it, I'm calling it. Sorry, but it's my least favorite song on this countdown.

i like it, mostly just the riff though i realized the other day it really does PLOD

13. "Harvester of Sorrow" • …And Justice For All, 1988
184 points | 9 votes

Studio Version
Reunion with Jason, 2011
Harvester of Skelter, Beatallica

lol revealing myself as untrue here but i was introduced to metallica mostly through that first apocalyptica record, and the riff for "harvester of sorrow" was basically simultaneously the meanest and prettiest thing i'd ever heard played on a cello

I remember being kind of intrigued / scared by Metallica due to the mulleted guy with the METAL UP YOUR ASS muscle-t in my study hall circa 1987. But somehow I ended up with a cassette of RTL a year later - I have no idea where it came from - and I used to listen to that or the Doors Greatest Hits tapes on my yellow walkman when I mowed my grandmother's lawn.

Still would have voted for Puppets over Lightning, no question. My favorite record from any band often ends up being the one I heard first, this is one of the rare exceptions.

For some reason whenever I heard Escape, I always had a made-up video in my head of James driving shirtless through a desert full of cacti singing at top volume and driving a shitty brown 70s van with one of those diamond shaped windows in the side.

Very surprised at this showing. I also know who exactly to blame for this.

12. "Fight Fire With Fire" • Ride the Lightning, 1984
261 points | 11 votes | 2 No. 1 votes

Studio Version
Live in Canada, 1986
Keyboard cover by Viktoriya Yermolyeva
Onstage with Very Special Guest, Flea

Everyone, please give a "warm" welcome to our first multi-#1 entry.

i found the riff of "fight fire with fire" so confusing as a kid

lol HI GUYS

i can believe you voted for "we did it again" but i'm really surprised you like "sad but true" that much

jesus that '86 version starts so fucking fast.

i found the riff of "fight fire with fire" so confusing as a kid

honestly i have a hard time feeling the downbeat on some their super fast thrash tunes with the snare on the upbeat. not a lot to hold on to. FFwF in particular, the accents in the verses always get twisted around in my head to be on the downbeat.

i'm gonna use this thread anyway to share my metallica experiences

so i think master of puppets may have been my first mp3 ever. a guy named XxMattYxX (i think) who i knew through a n64 cheat code forum sent it to me using aim file transfer. it took like 5 hours on a dialup

that's the story i want to share for now. more to come when i feel like it

i can believe you voted for "we did it again" but i'm really surprised you like "sad but true" that much

This is a safe place for you to come out of your shell, 龜. Please come back any time you'd like and share more.
