For me personally, Puppets is better, but this is so close behind it.

Yes it is a great 3 piece album. 2 guitars and drums. Jason got screwed because the other guys were still morning the tragic death of Cliff and they turned down the bass on it.

Don’t forget “To Live Is To Die”

Agreed with Justice...Ride was My first introduction 2 them...Masters was My Favorite until Justice came out.👍😁👍 I believe it was their most progressive also.

It has the best bass playing ever, uh, um wait...🤣

Shortest straw is insane. Lyrics are amazing lolol

@@andrewmcgill9544 the solo too🥰

@@cosminblaga5117 My favourite tallica solo

@@victorsavov2073 me too ,along side fade to black and ride the lightning's solo's

@@cosminblaga5117 The Ride the Lightening solo is absolutely sick!! ❤️❤️🤘

Yes!!

I'm gonna trademark it and make the shirt heheh

I've always said crunchy, but chunky is great too.

Crunch pedal

@@adampowell5986 there's a difference between crunchy and chunky. musicality can't be crunchy, but sounds can be. chunkiness of musicality refers not to the sound, but to the fullness of the score. crunchy describes a sound, but has no reference to musicality.

They'd played it quite a few times in 2019

Heard it at aftershock 2021 in Sacramento CA!

Literally a killer song

Stars ✨ is a great song….never gets enough play.

Mine too

yeah and 99% of people dont even know it exists because they have only heard the black album and consider themselves metallica fans

yup. The best

@@liamsguitaring2296 you're right about that. I saw them on the And Justice tour in 1989 and there was 6,000 people in the auditorium. Then I saw them 3 years later on the black album tour and there was 60,000 people in a football stadium.

What are you smoking? 99% of people who know MetallicA have never heard. ...And Justice For All? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

the greatest thing about Lex's reactions is that she's NOT "listening" to the songs...she's FEELING them. She was saying on another reaction to (I think) Iron Maiden, explaining to Brad (and everyone else) how she doesn't hear the lyrics a lot of the time because she's so lost in the music. And she actually seemed a bit apologetic about it. I had to leave a comment to let her know she's doing it RIGHT. She couldn't be doing it MORE right. FEEL the music first. Especially with Metal. Go back later and read the lyrics if you have to.

@@philpennington826 I agree, Lex is in the music zone while Brad is trying to pick apart the lyrics and the meaning.

@@philpennington826 you can do both

I do skip "One" tho. Overplayed.

Yup, but I feel the same way about MoP.

Agree. I think it’s the Metallica album that I listen to the most.

To live is to die and then Orion!

(laughing) You just reminded me of my best friend and I (who were definitely in the "we like the first four albums" camp - big MoP and AJFA fans especially) eagerly awaiting the first play of Enter Sandman on our local equivalent to MTV. That opening soft guitar was good, the thumping drums followed by the matching grinding guitar had us grinning like giddy schoolgirls.... and then the radio-friendly hook (dun-dada-dundun, repeat ad nauseum) kicked in and our smiles were replaced with expressions of shock followed by sheer disgust. We literally turned to each other after maybe 10 seconds of that hook and simultaneously said "they sold out". This was a band that had never made a video before "One" and insisted on making that video a brilliant bit of art. Enter Sandman just killed Metallica for both of my buddy and I. Neither of us never bought another Metallica album after the first four. The band had pretty much died for us in that moment. I've never had my love of a band extinguish in a moment like that before or since. It was a weird moment. Admittedly, that song in particular and some of their later ones have grown on me over the years but honestly, it's been over 30 years and I still only have the old school stuff on my custom playlists (and my musical tastes are all over the place). I've seen them live once since the black album dropped and they put on a polished show but yeah, they felt super commercial to me (I found myself mostly just tolerating the newer stuff) and it was really the audience getting into the older stuff that made the show genuinely good for me. That being said, I'm mostly just indifferent and disinterested in their post-... and Justice material. Their only newer song that I absolutely hate is their version of Whiskey in the Jar. I kind of get what they were trying to do but I just can't stand what they produced (and I'm a metalhead who loves the original song - I've downed many a pint while singing it with the crowd in a pub).

Everyone adores that album tho! But it’s maybe too little known

Not the video version though…..

@@Pingkonk it gets overlooked a lot of times. It’s right after Master of Puppets and before the Black album.

@@-Garviel_Loken- . Wasn't Garage Days before Justice?? I think I'm right. I think that was how they broke in Newsted.

Just saying whatever we want huh? No one underrated any of their 80s albums

I'm curious why people act like all old Metallica was thrash when in my opinion it wasn't 🤔. Half of ride the lightning I wouldn't term thrash

@@metallicafan416 umm

hard for me to pick a fave. my top 3 could be AJFA, RTL, or MOP in any order at any given time. kill em all 4th although it's also pretty damn great

Justice is the most pissed off album

@@MetalKillsRap2 agree- it wasn't just aggression - it was anger.... Cliff died, and I think it fueled this album.

Same here! Whole album is vicious 🔥

Dirty Rotten Imbecels one of my favorite bands.

@@NathanCline12-21 Suicidal Tendencies and D.R.I. are like THE skater bands

I loves Lars on the drums in this album. By far his best work.

Shortest straw has been pulled for you!

They’re so good live, but I’m always down for studio on first reactions.

You have to add 1991, they have a video from 2019 too (:

Disagree. The black album has perfect drum writing and tone. It’s still sampled today.this album sounds dated heavily

@@chadphelps5809 To each his own. The black album may have better production, but I still prefer his playing on Justice. He was really pushing his abilities on that album. I feel the beats are simpler on The Black Album...And Justice For All from the guitars to the drums it's a much more technical album. Which is better: high technique or laying back and grooving. It's whatever the song needs is the right answer I suppose.

@@neakapla well if you want technical drumming no Metallica is what you listen to. If you listen for perfectly written parts that serve the song wherever I may roam the unforgiven sad but true don’t tread on me all have perfect drumming that serves the song

I love Lars’ drumming in this song.

@@chadphelps5809 I never claimed that Lars was the pinnacle of technical drumming. He's nowhere near that. But I like that in the Justice album it seemed like he was pushing the boundaries of what he's capable of.

Human nature never changes, sadly.

Through the never

​@@MG-zr6tjNo, through the rabbit hole 🐇

Yes that Seattle show was amazing

I agree 110%.

*chef's kiss

Brad doesn´t like instrumentals, that why they haven´t reacted to them yet. He is always analyzing the lyrics, he wants to find out the message. He can´t feel the music like Lex does.

@@maxis5650 well he can't get them wrong if there isn't any. Lol

Spot on , I like kill em all the best
