Product Description: For many heavy metal fans, Metallica epitomizes the genre, especially for those listeners who remember the band's fast-and-furious 1983 debut, Kill 'Em All. As a result, their continued foray into a more stripped-down, laid-back sound with this album has met a mixed response. However, there's enough innovation and just plain strange stuff on this album to make it worth a listen. The creepy "The Memory Remains" is perfectly accentuated by Marianne Faithfull's backing vocals, and "Where the Wild Things Are" features the multilayered vocals and guitars that Metallica is famous for, albeit at about half their usual speed. The opening ("Fuel") and closing ("Fixxxer") tracks are especially strong, and intermixed with some slower, country-inflected tunes are the obnoxious rockers that made Metallica the long-running success they are. --Genevieve Williams


Customer Reviews


2 stars its funny how this is better than Load
better than Load but still not enough for me to care. seriously, who cares what Metallica has to say anymore? arent we over it yet? i mean, they released 4 records that made metal what it is today, no one in a metal band can decline the notion that Metallica paved the way and in a way invented what we know today as american metal but that was 20 plus years ago, do we really care anymore?

there are some decent radio hits on this cd which is what Metallica had been trying to do since 1990 and have succeeded but with time the songs on these later era releases just arent worth the plastic they are put on.

im just so over Metallica and these songs.

dont get me wrong tho, i love Metallica, i love the early era stuff because it still rules over most if not all metal thats around today but do they really have anything left to offer but stale music packaged as an excuse to tour?


1 stars Metallica should just quit already. They've been awful since the self titled album.
The best to the worst; Metallica stinks and they know it. The band committed suicide after ...And Justice For All.


3 stars Cry Us A River
This album is not terrific, as it has some filler. That filler is, generally, very bad. But when its good, this album succeeds. For some reason, the thrashing burn-outs never matured, however, and they are here giving undeserved 1-star ratings. It's all very unfortunate.

This album is a good, solid, hard, blues-based, rocker. It is interesting enough to keep you listening. The first half of this album is very good.

If you like hard rock, check it out.


1 stars Metallica complete their tragic trilogy.
The first trilogy of Kill,Ride,Puppets, will never be duplicated or outdone. Even Justice was awesome.
Then we came to the new trilogy.
The sell out album.
Load and Reload.
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, it did, AGAIN!
Dreadful.
Unoriginal.
Hated it.
Start,middle,end. Horrid.


3 stars Not good, not HORRIBLE, just.....ya
Well since the kind of music I like basically died in the 80's I am really starved for good music and got desperate enough to buy some songs off reload. Now Load sucks except for king nothing and maybe another song. ReLoad does not suck as much. Fuel, and 2 other songs are o.k. everything else is FILLER. It is not good at all. And Fixxxer is just slow and boring for 8 mins.
