[@RoadLessTraveledMedia]

alright as one of your biggest fans, lemme say that when I saw you were going to review this, I listened to your intro, poured a drink, smoked something revelatory, and then sat outside and listened to the song first, just to remind myself. I'm a professional guitarist (pre-covid), and I grew up recording cassettes of Metallica from the radio from 10:00 to 10:15 on the east coast, called "mandatory Metallica." I would push play, pause, rewind, from about 9pm (bedtime as a kid) until 2a, just learning these nuances. I appreciate you guys understand what they're throwing down. For those of us who grew up on and turned into Tool/Deftones/'Tallica players, this was life. You guys appreciate why this gripped us kids.

[@dsinger369]

Please do "Welcome Home(Sanitarium)" , it's one of their slower songs but you won't be disappointed at all

[@Donks-R-us]

Lars isn't over the top crazy or anything, but Metallica would not be Metallica without him. He is the best at complementing the guitar work.

[@lenni-hazels]

He's also an excellent songwriter and excels at arranging the various parts of their songs!

[@Ozzpot]

People are very one-dimensional in their criticism of Lars. All they think about is technical prowess and no, he doesn't measure up to the best in that regard, but it's to blindly dismiss everything else that he is to Metallica to say that he's trash. Kirk isn't the best lead guitarist either, from a technique point of view, but he's written many of our favourite riffs and solos. James doesn't have the best vocal range or versatility, nothing close, but he's been a rock solid frontman of arguably the biggest metal band on the planet for over 35 years and that has to count for quite a lot. Metallica is a whole greater than the sum of its parts, always has been, and anyone who doesn't see that, only cares about individual virtuosity, needs to reconsider what it is they want from music.

[@Hard0milk03]

hes kinda basic in my opinion and was the crying bitch in a lot of situations, made the band good and bad

[@MaddogJones]

@@Ozzpot Preach it brah!!! Lars was brilliant on their first 5 albums. He has inspired millions to learn to play drums. Ride, Master and Justice were absolute masterpieces, Kill and Metallica (The Black Album were amazing)! And Lars killed it on each and every track...

When I saw these guys live a few years ago, this was probably the oldest song they played. Debut dropped in 1983 and more than likely didn't get any radio airplay.

Lars is an abrasive human. He wasn't "wrong" about file sharing, particularly when their unfinished song was stolen and pre-released. People also give him grief because he is NOT a Top # drummer in technical talent , people say... But individual technical talent doesn't trump song writing and playing as a band.

I LOVE the raw production of this LP and Ride The Lightning as well...like they were recorded in somebody's basement or garage (speaking of "garage," you guys will dig "Garage Days Re-visited." They cover some songs by bands that were influential to em). You can definitely hear Dave Mustaine's writing and influence (Megadeth) on this whole LP, even though he got handed his bus ticket before it's "official" release. I've still got my bootleg copy of this LP (cassette) somewhere that I first heard in the Fall of '83 as a freshman in college. And, Lars takes a backseat to nobody...so what the dude grew up playing tennis , has some real intelligence, and doesn't "look" like he's got the guns of Glenn Danzig or somethin...dude blazed his own trail just like the rest of em did. I respect him more than any other members that Metallica has had over the years. (But, I will say that, just like Dave Mustaine got screwed over by the rest of em, Jason Newstead did as well)
