I’m not a fan of most of the lyrics, but I agree the production is absolutely mint. While I’m not thrilled with most of the songs (How is “Enter Sandman” written by the same geezers what wrote “The Thing That Should Not Be”? ), the good songs are GREAT. “The Unforgiven”, “Wherever I May Roam”, and “The God That Failed” are utterly brilliant. I think the subtle touches of unconventional instrumentation in “The Unforgiven” and “Roam” are some of the most brilliant touches on any album of the 90s.

[@belikemikedaily6647]

The "don't tread on me" is a rebellious American slogan and battle cry - hence the coiled snake on the front of the album.

According to Hetfield, The Struggle Within was written during the band's last day in studio. He admitted that the “struggle within” was the trouble he had coming up with lyrics for the track. He also admitted that, looking back, the song also represented the anger that he was feeling at the time. That’s what let out James loud scream near the end of the song. It is also the shortest song on the album.

I'm an 80s hair band girl, but saw Metallica 3 times, first time was in May 1986 at the Iowa Jam. This was only my 2nd rock concert, 1st of Van Halen 2 nights before. I had no idea who Metallica was..lol but the crowd was going nuts. It wasn't until Enter Sandman that I started to like them. I am a huge music lover, it all depends on my mood and what moves me(gets me in my feels). I would love if you would listen to Shinedown, so many great songs but Sound of Madness or Dead Don't Die, but they have so many amazing songs. They do a lot for suicide prevention, which I love! Their music helped me through a very dark time, after my husband's K9 was killed in the line of duty and my husband could have been killed that night. So hope you put them on your list! BTW, you are the same age as my 2nd son and I thoroughly enjoy your channel!

It's good to see reactors doing the whole albums now - more and more are reacting to full albums not just one song - back in the day - when I was a teenager throughout the 80s - we went to the music store to buy the new releases - we brought to our friends who were all waiting - we put the cassette tape or CD in the ghetto blaster and turned it up to 10 - we sat there and listened to the new album over and over again - that's how you are supposed to experience music

[@ShadowSong634]

I grew up in the south of the U.S...... I started wearing all black and listening to metal after discovering this album. People thought my friends and I worshiped the devil for listening to this.

[@inibrius5380]

"Don't Tread on Me" hits deep in my American heart. Everything from the name of the song, which is from the Gadsden flag from the Revolutionary war, to the imagery of the rattlesnake, which has been the symbol of the USA since it's inception, to the intro guitar lead ("America" from West Side Story) to the allusions to Patrick Henry (Liberty or Death), Francis Scott Key (What we so proudly hail), and especially Benjamin Franklin (Never begins it, never surrenders / Shining with brightness, always with surveillance) says 'Don't fuck with America'. Song gets me hyped every time.

Oh this will be a good one. This is the album that got me into metal in the Summer before 8th grade (that's 13/14 yrs old here). It's what got me playing guitar (along with Nuno's insane sh*t from the band Extreme), and it helped me plot what I wanted for my future even further in a sense with "Wherever I May Roam." There's an RV in the driveway right now I mean to fix up so I can finally live that song, and half an hour ago I unpacked and put the Gibson Acoustic I learned these songs on back on a stand in the studio. 1968 J-50 for anyone who GAF, it was in the attic when I got to earth. We always come in with the tools we need to fulfill our purpose.

Inamorata, for me, seems like a sequel to Orion in a way. Not to mention, it is probably the most perfect way to end a bands discography, period. I love listening to whole albums / whole discographies when I listen to music. Inamorata just seems like the perfect book end for me. It feels complete to end off on that song. Trying to continue to listen to anything else from any of their albums directly after Inamorata just feels off to me.

I sympathize with him when he mentioned Metallica starting his love of heavy metal, because that’s my perspective, as well. They were the first heavy band or any artist that I got into to the degree I bought everything I could find, album or magazine-wise. I listened to other music before (like GNR), but Metallica was the catalyst for every other music I developed an interest in beyond a casual acquaintance. It started with a copy of FFWF from RTL, just one song, but it made an impression. I bought justice soon after and the Black Album came out about a year or so, later.

MollyBoy, you have officially made it into the headbanger community! Been watching you from the start and seeing you singing the lyrics, knowing the beat changes / solo's and head banging perfectly to the beat, especially to Wherever I May Roam, is fucking awesome, not to mention seeing you listening to the songs you have missed from the album and trying to decide which one is NOW your favorite. CONGRAT! btw... Don't Tread on Me, WILL grow on you. It is a purely American thing from our Revolutionary War with Brittan, basically meaning , if you come at me, you better come hard and right or you will get your ass handed to you. "The “Don’t Tread on Me” slogan can be traced back to the American Revolution, when it was featured on the Gadsden flag. This historical flag consists of a yellow background, with a coiled rattlesnake and the words “Don’t Tread on Me” displayed prominently. The phrase symbolizes a warning against infringement on personal freedoms and rights. In its original context, it represented the fight for independence from British rule."

[@seegee8564]

Trying to explain that a song relates to a historic US-UK war while using a phrase that is purely American, hmm.🤔😂 In British English, an "ass" is like a donkey & you sit on your arse. The bit about having it handed to you isn't something I have ever heard over here, but from what you've written I can guess it means to be shamed or beaten? Nothing to do with the album though; I hadn't heard it before, the first bits sound promising. 😁

React to The Day That Never Comes pls 🙏 It's my fourth favorite Metallica song, super underrated

[@TC_Smitty]

I was 14 going on 15 when this album came out. This is what expanded my interest from stuff like Poison and Motley Crüe to Heavy Metal. And later on Megadeath with Countdown to Extinction. I think my favorite songs off this album are Sad but True, Wherever I May Roam and Don't Tread on Me.

This album is tied with Wolfenstein 3d, because me and my brother played these songs endlessly while we played it. It was my first 1st-person shooter, and it blew us away. When we were kids it was Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil album and Mike Tyson's Punchout. By the time Doom came out, it was White Zombie's La Sexorcisto.
