In my opinion, this was Metallica's best sound.

+Albee213 THE SMALL HOURS !!! THE WAIT!!! like i said...a master piece

[@danielgreen2788]

***** man Cliff with this raw production would blow the roof off!!

[@DanielFantini]

+Captain Ron I think he gets that dumbass. Cliff would have made all these songs sound so different. Even worse maybe. The guitar tone and James' vocals are what makes this album for most of us. I think Jason's percussive bass picking suited James guitar playing more than Cliff did in all honesty due to cliff being more fluid. James virtually played drums on guitar. Fucking the best shit ever.

[@scotchrocksred]

totally agree 👍

[@jasongreene303]

it was certainly one of their best sounding albums, it was relaxed and not over produced.

The way I like to remember Metallica

[@kevinkobylinski6271]

Indeed

[@Tricklarock]

Right?!?!!

[@ziggylayneable]

Most certainly. The first time I saw them was on the "Ultimate Sin" tour with Ozzy. I stopped going to see them after the touring they did for"Load". This is definitely the Metallica I like. They were drunker and sloppier on stage, I will give them the fact that they are much tighter live now than they used to be? But they don't have that fire lit under their ass anymore. I think they made a wrong turn with the "Black" album (which I would give three out of five stars IMO). After "....And justice for all" they started to lose the aggressive rebellious thing that drew all of us to them in the first place in the early and mid-80s.

Me too brother. Class of 87

[@toddprater14]

I was 17 in 87’ 11th grade and bought the lp…got this creeping death Ep and first four records on LP…this band was the bomb back in the day got into them in 84’ with ride..went back to first record, then forward in 86’ to master… then 88’s justice ..then was outta school …grunge hit in 91’ and so did the black album… then I was done , black was too polished -though good.. 96’ on lost interest when load dropped.

[@moeh3224]

With no internet and radio stations refusing to play Metallica, the only way to discover them was to have a metal head friend who'd already bought an album. Luckily, I had several. Blew my mind at 17.

[@CALLAHAN19]

This is the best of Metallica.. a lot younger people don't even know about this..

[@matteocoda6368]

Remember being 16 yr old and having heard only their first three records. No YT back then. Then a friend of mine came over and blasted this EP from the stereo. We freaked out around the room laughing hysterically. We had a band and we bled on our instruments even more than usual that day.

[@richardbaer711]

When this album came out I was about 16 years old. After listening to it for about 5 minutes, I was 16 years old again. I might cue it up one more time before I go back to being 50

Is it just me or is this the best thing Metallica has ever released? As an eighties kid kid I like Metallica a lot but this recording takes the cake.

[@bjhvapes2703]

Felt like the coolest kid in our group getting this tape right before Justice came out. After Justice came out, I remember asking my 4th or 5th grade teacher (whatever it was, too long ago) what a megalomaniac was. lol.

[@angelgillis5703]

Metallica...BEST band of a generation! James Hetfield...BEST frontman of ALL time! Change my mind... My son was 2 years old in 1993, could name each band member, their name, and their instrument. He also knew ALL of their songs. Gotta raise these kids right after all. 😜 We are both still incredibly huge forever fans. Love you guys SO VERY MUCH... 💋🖤🤘🖤

[@espiritucombativo6873]

I remember the day I bought it! 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@STVG71]

Listening to this gives me goosebumps. 14 year old me only knew Metallica and had zero idea of who Killing Joke, Budgie, Diamond Head or Holocaust were. I heard of the Misfits but hadn't yet heard any of their albums as none of these artists music was available at the record shop in the mall in central PA back then. It took me MANY years until I was able to finally listen to the original songs. A great album to get introduced to the new wave of british heavy metal.

The bass tone on this record is easily my favorite of all Metallica albums. I loved Justice, but remember being so bummed it didn’t sound like this.

[@AAAFilm-yt7gx]

This tape was the pinnacle of metal and punk being cool with each other. I remember walking out of a 7-Eleven around the time it came out singing helpless aloud and some rocker who was on his way in sang along with me "I can see the sky but I can see what's going on" It was a seminal happy punk rocker moment.

And I was one their original fans what a ride.I'm pretty damn good guitarist cause of these guys.I play anything from classical finger picking to country finger picking to peer shred. These guys were my favorite when I was kid.The first metal songs I learned were Seek&Destroy and for Whom the Bell tolls.

The band took some time to relax and Shawn said, hey let's jam. Meaning just the two of us. So we gave CRASH COURSE a run. I still remember having so much fun playing it so loud. I don't even remember if I had a mic but I sure as hell yelled out every lyric while playing guitar. EVERY time I listen to this album I think about that day. Thanks Shawn.

Back in '87, I was 15, "I'm The Man' moved me from rap to metal. After I thought the Anthrax metal was cool, my friend said listen to so far so good, and this metallica ep. "helpless" introduced me to Metallica, this EP introduced me to Metallica, all covers, and Helpless and Small Hours were coolest songs I ever heard until I heard For Whom The Bell Tolls and Call of Ktulu, The Thing..., No Remorse. But when Justice came out, I couldn't tell you how many tapes I stretched! Couldn't afford cd's haha... Fuckin "HELPLESS". Changed my life!

[@DraculaXHunter101]

These Metallica covers blew me away, Loved how they made The Misfits sound even more awesome then ever. Loved all 5 of these songs and I was glad they were also available on Garage Inc as well. A fresh sound even for 1987. Also Lars, Kirk and James look so happy. Though Jason looks so shocked to be with Metallica

[@funkster007]

Been a long time since I heard this. Great production too. Wish they would have stuck with that sound. AJFA sounded like over compressed shit to me.

[@DraculaXHunter101]

funkster007 Dude I fully agree. AJFA had such shit production despite it being such an awesome album from Metallica. Coming from an EP Garage Days sounded so awesome and they should have stuck to what they done with Master of Puppets production wise.

***** Yes they did my dude, So much win with this EP! I still want them to play in Smaller Venues when they perform live. The big venues are too expensive for my tastes. Plus the moshes and aggression is way better. I always blast the first four albums and this EP when I need my rush. But this and Master have the best production quality.

This album was never produced and it has a really edgy raw sound. The Black album was way over produced in my opinion. Unforgiven has a great riff in it that was covered in synthesizer overlays. Gee, I hate Bob Rock.

[@ULYSSES-31]

Well there is production in Garage days, it's too well recorded and the mix is too good for something that's meant to seem like it was made in a home-made studio. That's the production of The Black Album the band wanted and sought. It's not Bob Rock's fault, he was offered the job.

[@kevinwhitaker620]

I too wish Justice had been produced differently. this was my first taste of Metallica. instantly had to have more! went back to Kill 'Em and made my way forward.

This may not be a producer's idea of production, or a sound engineer's either, but I love the tightness, compression and the isolated vocals of James on this EP; tighter than a frog's ass over a barrel! And Jason NewKid sure owned his keep on this recording, but hey, after downing 2 Jolt colas in a row before playing, there wasn't anyone else that could keep up to them like he did! 👊😎

Takes me back to my high school years where I hated almost everything & everyone. Liked horror movies, Nintendo, & heavy music. Those 3 years were a struggle but somehow got thru them. Words I'll never say " wish I was back in high school".

[@timezoner]

Amen to that!

[@theoneandonly713]

Couldn't get laid huh 😞

[@vladputin1837]

fuck high school DARE TO BE DIFFERENT the sheep dont understand why you listen to what you listen to and why you do what you do , walk your own path on your own THE WORLD HAS BECOME LIKE SCHOOL KIDS scared to be YOUR SELF and say what you think and not worry what others might think. FUCK THOSE FOLLOWERS

[@danielgreen2788]

a master piece! they should have recorded ..and justice with this sound ,,, fckin perfect!

[@MB-oc1nw]

This was better produced than Justice and it was recorded in Lars garage in San Francisco

[@juliofigueroa5397]

Remember listening this EP back in 88.... change my life...

[@marvinkessay9104]

O yeah

[@helloitsme9081]

At 51 years of age, I am still head banging to this LP!

[@bonniebella-sikgirl]

I'm 45. Oh memories. Started seeing them in concert when they were making a name. I'll never stop loving Metallica.

[@sixbrokeneggs]

wish my dad understands Metallica ha-ha

[@fallingangel2864]

44 still banging my head too🤘🤘

[@vincentaguirre3959]

I’m 50 and still love this

[@roballen6198]

This was Metallica at the top of their game.

[@roldanrosario243]

Right before recording AJFA. Brutal !!! Jason Newsted stated in an interview that their peak was 1991. I’d Break it down this way. 1982 was raw and unpolished. 1985 was their hardest sound, 1987 showing off their chops, 1991 was their tightest. And they continued with that vibe to this day.

[@andrewbates8076]

Quite possibly my favourite Metallica album... Yes, it's covers, and Metallica write amazing tunes of their own, but this album is almost like they asked Jason to Join in...

[@charlieknoll5206]

Damn, talk about some memories. Cruising around blasting this whole tape.

[@MoxiBingo]

u said "tape" lol...u dont hear that anymore!!!!

[@bryanbighatbear2562]

Memorys,drugs,hard times,good times,metal.

[@JPGPakua]

One of the best bands and COVER bands EVER, period end of fucking sentence.

[@PaulShivery]

Good god, you kids are so spoiled with this easy net access. Diamondhead was a great English metal band, like Iron Maiden and others, and this was a tribute. We used to only be able to hear a song if someone owned it, Garage Days introduced me to 3 bands I never would have heard of otherwise. Now I get to Google it or look on KZbin, but I own two Diamondhead albums on vinyl, discovered The Misfits... This was a brilliant idea at the time. Just learn from it and don't troll or give people crap for their tastes. Listen more and type less. I'm Creeping Death.

[@BustedBattery]

damn you old people... talking bullshit

[@arlenemurray1581]

I feel ya!

[@RubenMoil]

So,

[@joshcunningham5432]

You discovered the Misfits by listening to Metallica? Yikes. At least you found them.

[@FrankieTrentalance]

Lol

[@djpaulk]

RIP Cliff Burton... Sadly missed and never forgotten.. 👍🇭🇲

[@corozaldelosochenta3752]

Maybe best Metallica s best distorsion on guitars and best Hetfield s voice is here.

[@InquisitorRomanov]

Takes me back to '87 every time I hear it. This is not only one of the best metal records ever, it is also the best punk rock record of all time.

[@headcase6033]

Same here. Sophomore year, those 80s NorCal parties were epic

[@billmcmahon5454]

Same bro.. '87 I was just out of the army, I was single, making good money and had a badass Cutlass jamming to this cassette tape on an Alpine with 6x9 Jensens all around. God life was good then.

[@patrickcrawford6392]

That’s a pretty stupid thing to say

[@darrellvanleest2992]

There’s something about the “crunch” in this album. As a previous commenter said, “this is Metallica’s best sound” and I totally agree. This album is never too loud on a decent sound system.

[@StragglerTx]

Tube amps and wa wa pedels ,,good times

[@danielblack6354]

Man, what a journey back to the 14 year old kid with long hair and a Levi' s jacket that I barely remember being standing at the counter of Turtle' s Records and Tapes in Chattanooga, TN with 7$ of hard-earned lawn mowing money in hand to buy this tape (yes, cassette tape) the week it was released...

[@kevinharshaw6127]

I still have the album with the plastic and the Turtles Records price of 5.99 when it already had a price with the quote ' Do Not Pay More '

[@aryan1313ful]

I had the poster too- I do not know what happened to it, but I moved a lot..

[@sarsippious3028]

[@erinward4237]

My roommates used to hate this album, and I'd make them to it every morning, ha ha. Then I met and married my husband, and he's as metal as I am, so it's all good.

[@chadpittman3025]

Women Metallica fans rule

[@erinward4237]

@@chadpittman3025 Thank you sir, I have always thought so!

[@lossouthtx9949]
