Its a hard one but it CAN'T be anything relaeased after 1986. After their first 3 albums they went downhill !!

richindub2

no leaf clover tbh! :r

Karl Hungus

Master Of Puppets is always a great song to play.
Either that or Orion.
Classics.

Drunk pirate

Dyers eve - Justice. Possibly the best riff and solo ever!

Oeneus

I have always loved Fade To Black, but I think it would be a tie between that and Master Of Puppets. But I picked Fade To Black because I knew everyone else would do Puppets.

phreak

i went for The Unforgiven 1. but i also wanted to go for Enter Sandman, Fade to Black and Master of Puppets

Pugsley

Master of Puppets, clearly

Shamo

Aside from the obvious Master of Puppets, another song I still listen to a lot is Dispossible Heroes..

Enter Sandman is class aswell.

_sheep

one or fuel, went for one but on second thoughts should have gone for fuel

"gimme fuel gimme fire, gimme that which i desire"

Lemming

A hard question to answer, since they have several songs which would stand up to each other for different reasons.

ANYYYway, I picked Puppets from that list.

But I really think its a toss between:

Master of Puppets
Fade to Black
Orion
Unforgiven
No Leaf Clover

Honourable Mentions to:
Battery
Disposable Heroes
Sanitarum
Enter Sandman
The Four Horsemen


End Note: It's quite telling to see so many of songs off the Master of Puppets album being mentioned by the way

However, I do not subscribe to this idea of "anything after 1986 is crap" in case anyone thinks I'm implying it - which I'm not. But that's another arguement for another day.

Fade to Black by miles.

Dun

Very difficult. One is my favourite, closely followed by Master of Puppets, The Thing That Should Not Be (especially the S&M version) and Fade to Black. I hope that everyone has heard the bootleg acoustic version of Fade to Black - pure magic.

metalish

my other ones would be
nothing else matters
master of puppets
trapped under ice
die die die my darling (i know its a cover but i still like it!)

seek and destroy
fade to balck

OLDYELLAR

smackbunnybaby

id have to go for blackened.

Tazz T

Fight Fire with Fire - first time i heard that I was blown away. There was nothing as heavy or as fast.

Shiminay

The first thing I ever heard from Metallica was the garage days revisited stuff. So "am i evil?" (which i know is a cover) would be one of my favourites (not the live versions). But overall i'd have to choose Orion.

I saw metallica when they came to Dublin in 1992 and it remains one of the best gigs I've ever been to. I don't really listen to them any more but there are a few classics like fade to black and welcome home that you can't ignore as being great tracks.

mechanix

what about all the songs on "kill em all" thats by far the best album
my fav would have 2 be "the four hoursemen" or "seek and destroy"

The Reaper

yes there is good ones on kill em all but tats the same as all of their albums!!! but id have to say master of puppets is the best!
