Welcome everyone to this year's Metallica Survivor. Over the next few months, we'll be voting, discussing, and debating until we crown the best Metallica song. I'll be running an album rankings survivor first, and the order in which they are eliminated will be the order that each album's survivor will be run. Before we do any individual album survivor though, I will be running a non-albums track survivor, featuring the two original songs from S&M, I Disappear, and the four songs from the Beyond Magnetic EP. Lords of Summer will be included in the Hardwired...To Self Destruct survivor, unlike last year where it was included in the non-albums track survivor. The top two songs from each album and from the non-albums track survivor will automatically make the finals, while those songs that come in third will be placed into the consolation round. The top three songs from consolations will earn a spot in the finals. Good luck and may the best song win!
