One was one of the first songs I tried to learn when I started playing bass, but I could never figure it out because there’s no freaking bass on this album. Some guys wanted me to go play it with them and I told them I didn’t know it and they said we’ll just play it with my volume at zero. I guess if Metallica did it I’m certainly nobody to complain.

Best thing you could have done is follow the Rhythm Guitar parts and hope nobody calls you out for it, supposedly Jason recorded his parts by himself and they came out similar to the Rhythm Guitar parts due to him doing that way in Flotsam and Jetsam and nobody in the band communicating with him to tell him to change it.

Today’s the 37th anniversary of Cliff Burton’s death. He was the original Metallica bassist. This album is the first album with their new bassist, Jason Newsted. As part of his hazing, the band members completed muted all of his bass lines. You can find KZbin videos with his bass lines in the album that’s entitled “And Justice For Jason.”

Also this album is a highlight of Lars's drumming performance. Its well known that Blackened or Dyers Eve are on of his best ones, but people forget about Frayed Ends quite often. Probably because its slower and sounds bit less impressive for non-drummers, but the fills he does there are incredible, easily the most musically complicated and complex song that Metallica ever did (excluding maybe the instrumentals) and probably my favorite drumming-wise, knowing Lars's entire career its still hard to believe that he come up with it and played it

This album was released in 1988. The bass player Cliff Burton died in 1986. The band was in the depths of grief. James also talked of how the death of Cliff reopened wounds regards his mother's death when he was a youngster. Their most technical album. Kirk's solos are amazing on this album.

In my humble opinion this is Metallica’s best album. James’ voice is deeper and more abrasive fitting the lyrical themes of political corruption and paranoia found throughout the album, and the more vulnerable emotional damage explored on Dyers Eve. The music also is their most interesting and dynamic of their 80s albums, sacrificing some of the all out speed of earlier albums for parts that are slower or mid tempo in pace which just helps to enhance and intensify the more aggressive parts, and even though the songs for the most part are very long and don’t follow conventional song structures they’re never boring. The only minor gripe I have with this album is that the bass guitar is buried under everything, but even on their prior records that was always the case as well, it’s just more infamously noticeable here, but with music this great it almost doesn’t even matter.

Point: The chugginess of those riffs and that scooped, dry mix is what I still define as the ultimate Progressive Thrash sound! I just LOVE IT!

It's a definitive creative vision one that Jason even said should stand. What we got is the expressed intention and an artistic choice. I wholly respect that. And at the same time, I dislike it MIGHTLY. It's so dry, the drums and cymbals are so grainy and sandy that it ends up being all I hear in the reverb.

The Justice album is what I coin a “Grief Album”. It was written, performed and recorded in a way where three young men carried on business as usual immediately after the death of bassist Cliff Burton. However, as people process grief , it bleeds through their everyday routine in ways they cannot fully understand. That’s why this album stands out. It’s dark gritty, and very upset and balls to the wall. And it also cries unexpectedly as it does in To live is to Die, then they let out the pain in Dyers Eve. Justice is a very emotionally honest album. It’s a treasure

Have to be honest, while I like Metallica I don’t find myself going back to this album much, Shortest Straw and Harvester of Sorrow are my favorites but I just don’t feel much for the other tracks. I think Ride The Lightning is the Metallica I like, it feels still connected to their thrash origins while still providing moments for ballads.

The next album takes a bit of a turn. I look forward to your reaction.

Watch their official "One" video and it will give good context to that great song. That video was immaculately edited and produced. You'll definitely get a different perspective about the song while watching and listening as supposed to just listening to it. My favorite song on the album!

IMO this was Metallica at their musical zenith. Long intricate songs, time changes, so many riffs and intense stuff. The next 4 or so albums should be interesting. Also To Live is to Die, was the last piece of music that Cliff Burton had credits for. The only lyrics were a poem that Cliff wrote. Cliff died 2 years before this album was released in a bus accident while on tour. A tragedy.

This is my favorite Metallica album, and To live is to die is my favorite track. Very much agree, a masterpiece :) Used to listen to that and Orion on repeat. You should check out the video for One if you haven't, it's got clips from the movie that inspired the song, Johnny got his gun. Very dark stuff.

Fun Fact: 'One' is their very 1st video -and, imo, their best. Lars (the drummer) was just on the 'Smartless' podcast and had a bit of the history of it. Super interesting! Also, that video literally switched my musical taste from gangster rap to metal.
