Give me 'Ride the Lightning' any day. By far their best album IMV, of course Master of Puppets is a close second.
I agree with you that they lost me after the Black album also. I loved it when it came out, I was a Freshman in HS.
That is one of my all-time favorite songs. I know it's a little hokey to say, and I love Metallica, but I think that song is on a whole other level from any of their other songs. It was one of those songs that blew my mind when I was like 12 and to this day I still love it. The only song I can think of that has been on my favorites list since before I was a teenager.
One of the best songs about death ever made IMO.
The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.
