I've been trying some highly-rated albums in genres I don't venture near too often and after checking out a few I'm on an upward trajectory here. This is toe-tapping/headbanging music. I've listened to and enjoyed the only other Metallica album I've rated, the self-titled release, so I kind of knew what I'd be getting. Good thrash. Early thoughts are that most of the songs sound very similar though. I'm not feeling the last song much.
