Def. Master.

Orion, MoP, The Thing that Should Not Be, Battery...

It's an easy choice.

The riffs and solos are much more to my liking than any of the songs from their previous albums.

MoP (the song) alone is better than all of their previous albums.

Sanitarium and Leper Messiah are gross; I dun have a problem with the rest of the album now though.

Of course it was poorly made, it was grassroots metal, but that doesn't make it a bad album.
Like I said, We DO NOT have huge record labels that have the rights to sell albums of Int. Artists in Pakistan.

You're gross. "Leper Messiah" is heavier than a fat chick's grocery cart.

I dun like the riffs.

And compared to MoP, the song is def. weaker.

I've heard "Master of Puppets" on the radio so many times I'm kinda sorta over it. Great song but it just doesn't have the impact it once did.

See this is what I'm talking about. Too much heavy metal in music today.

Try something different, like listening to St. Anger. That's actually my next favorite Metallica album after MoP.

I actually like the idea of St Anger. Sort of like progressive alt metal. "Frantic", "St. Anger", "Invisible Kid", "Some Kind of Monster", and possibly others are all surprisingly good songs. The problem is that they seriously needed to edit that ****. Every song goes well past it's due date. And the whole album is over an hour long. **** that. If they would have just cut two minutes off of every song then that album would have been so much better.

And letting Kirk Hammett write lyrics was a hilariously awful idea. "My life style determines my death style"? Kill yourself.

I always wondered if they got the leper messiah title from Ziggy Stardust. Dont care for St Anger at all.

At least you didn't say Risk. Cryptic Writings was underrated, but the overall quality of the album was lacking. About halfway through I stop caring.
