I don't think I did this Top 10 yet.
Yeah, and I'm not counting any of their live albums.. which makes for slim pickin's, but here we go:
10-Their next album. Haven't heard it yet, but I'm pretty confident that it will be better than "St Anger" or the one they did with Lou Reed.
9-Garage Inc. Yeah, it's all cover songs, but some of them are pretty darned good.
8-Re-Load. Songs that weren't good enough for the first "Load", 'nuf said.
7-And Justice For All. Maybe ranked a little low for some people as this was the BIG album when I was in High School. Doesn't matter how popular it was, I never "got" it. Sure, "One" is awesome and "Harvester Of Sorrow" isn't far behind, couple others are ok, most of it I can go the rest of my life never hearing again.
6-Death Magnetic. Granted, I've only heard bits and pieces of it. Most of what I heard was pretty good. Had this been the follow up to their black album, i might put this one higher. Unfortunately, by the time it came out, I was onto better things.
5-Load. Really not a bad album, just disappointing. They took 5 years after the black album to release this and it sounds like they wrote most of these songs in five minutes.
4=Kill 'Em All. Raw. The songwriting skills just aren't there yet on this one. However, they make up for it with intensity. Couple songs show us what was to come. The inclusion of "Am I Evil" on my copy lifts this album toward the top of the heap.
Top 3 coming up, but you probably already know what order I'm going with.
