Sorry, I just have a problem with people choosing the black album as it's basically a pop metal/sellout album..

BUT! you mentioned Sad But True and I respect that because it's easily the heaviest song from that album, and bears little of the pop elements most of the other songs have. Also the unforgiven is pretty good. I cannot stand the god that failed, that's one of my banned Metallica songs.

You mention that the songs translate well live, and I can't really argue with that. Aside from seek and destroy, fade to black, hit the lights, one...there's not really a lot of the thrash Metallica songs that I can see be particularly engaging live...
