Because I like the vibe of I Disappear and it had tight songwriting.
St. Anger is a bloated mess and way more sonically repetitive as an album than the preceding albums. I don't hate it, but it's the first album Metallica has made that bores me too much as a whole that I want to own it. It only got worse from there. So in hindsight, an album of material that follows the lead of I Disappear seems even more appealing to me now than back then.
