Heh. Good point about Lars' drumming. He almost ruins "Damage Inc" which I think is otherwise one of their best songs.

I guess this is where we just differ on our preferences with metal because I generally like my metal fast. Some bands do the slow and sluggish thing really well, but I don't think Metallica is one of them.
