ITT: bands with only one good album

That's not Ride the Lightning, OP.

i disagree but im glad you picked and justice for all

Kill 'Em All (1983)
Ride the Lightning (1984)
Master of Puppets (1986)
...And Justice for All (1988)

really only death magnetic is bad, and that's largely because it was just a rehashing of old ideas. come to think of it load/reload might have been bad too, i haven't listened to either in years, but lulu and st. anger are fucking solid.

Shit taste tbqh senpai. All of Metallica's '80s albums are patrician.

theres just something about the melodies and aggression meshing together on ajfa that does it for me. it fits perfectly. hardly a metallica fan, but this album is one of my top 5 hands down.

I'd call almost all Metallica records solid. Especially St Anger once you understand what the band was going through at the time, in fact that's my personal favorite. Load and Reload were so far removed from what they had done previously but there are a few good songs on here but both albums dont feel like a metallica record. Pretty much all the 90s were wasted by Metallica in my opinion.

>>61974908
Well, I would argue that the content was quite good, but the production was not and it was because they ditched bob rock and worked with Rick Rubin who's production methods are non-conventional to say the least. Look at the shoddy work on the recent MMLP2. The thing about bob rock is he can identify great ideas and pick the rose among the shit 9 times outta 10.

>>61974833
most overrated album of theirs IMHO

Objectively their best album.

>>61974833
I unironically think Metallica (Black Album) is their best album.

>>61976111
>Slowdive
m8 they are literally the only band with a perfect discography

>>61974833
Too bad the mix is so shitty with no bass.

>>61976336
good luck with that

>>61974833
terrible b8
>Kill 'Em All
>Ride The Lightning
>Master of Puppets
>...And Justice For All
>S/T
>Load
>Garage Inc.
>Death Magnetic

all minimum good

>>61974908
Lars' kit just sounds fucking awful in that album.

THB is the only good thing Manic Street Preachers have ever done.

>>61977415
that's not even their best album

It's a fantastic record.

>>61974833
People love to shit on Metallica purely because they're the biggest metal band that well ever exist. People seem to forget they've released at least 5 classic albums.

>>61974848

if theres a song on an album that the band themselves literally never play cause they're embarassed of it the album sucks

also

>all the most popular tracks are never played live or at the very least are cut out of their live concerts cause Dave wrote them all an they have to pay royalties

>>61974870
Black album was decent enough to warrant a listen and a place in any rock lover's library

Test

>>61976180
I swear to god whenever it's a band's worst/best album it's always this and whenever it's an album's worst/best song it's always dopesmoker.

American Football

Kill em All & Load are my favorites.

>>61974870
This. Everything else you shouldn't bother.

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless

Radiohead - Kid A

Swans - The Seer

Death Grips - The Money Store

Pucifer > Tool

i love metallica's first three albums but i have a hard time getting into and justice for all. all the songs sound to similar and i hate the guitar tone used on 90% of the album.

i will say that and justice for all features the most impressive work by lars by far. the drumming is pretty bad ass

>>61980768

pretty accurate

Wrong

I don't know how you can expect a 60 year old to sing like he's 30.
