Yes, I intentionally left off two songs, which would likely get the most votes. :coolio
You can vote for up to 7.
I will go with:
Disposable Heroes
The Call of Ktulu
Orion
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Fade to Black
Leper Messiah
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
-
Toughest one for me yet, since you finally found a band I'm a huge fan of.
Went with...
Creeping Death
Blackened
Four Horsemen
Sanitarium
To Live is to Die
Leper Messiah
Fade to Black
However you didn't include my favorite song from the first 4 albums. Dyer's Eve.
-
Good selection , I like all on the list.
Damage Inc.
Disposable Heroes
The Four Horseman
Ride The Lightning
Thing That Should Not Be
Phantom Lord
Leper Messiah
-
I hate that when you hit reply, the list disappears. I can't remember more than 2 items when I go the grocery store...and you're expecting me to remember *7* Metallica songs from a list of a couple dozen? Never gonna happen.

I opened a separate tab to reply so I could go back and forth.

Fantastic idea. Thank you.
Creeping Death
...And Justice For All
Orion
Battery
The Thing That Should Not Be
Frayed Ends of Sanity
Leper Messiah

This was incredibly difficult for me. Metallica is part of the very fabric of my being. They’re my all time favorite band and to pick just seven songs is near impossible.
-
Bell
Fade
Battery (had a hard time choosing between this and Orion, but that intro is so epic)
Thing (took a long time to click, but is one of my faves now)
Sanitarium
Blackened
Justice
-
Creeping Death is my favorite Metallica song.
Voted also for:
Damage Inc
Blackened
Sanitarium
Ride the Lightning
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Fade to Black
First ones left out: Disposable Heroes, Four Horsemen, Fight Fire with Fire.
-
Battery and Blackened are my two all-time favorite Metallica songs.
Ktulu, Fade to Black, The Four Horseman, Fight Fire With Fire were no brainers for me. Eye of the Beholder just edged out Welcome Home for my last vote.
-
Creeping Death
Sanitarium
And Justice for All
Orion
Ride the Lightning
Fade to Black
Bell Tolls
-
Now that was hard! So many great tracks that it was hard to whittle it down to 7. Ultimately, I went with:
Disposable Heroes
The Four Horseman
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
..And Justice for All
Eye of the Beholder
The Call of Ktulu
For Whom the Bell Tolls
-
I thought this was going to be tricky, but when I actually scanned down the list, it was pretty straightforward. It would have been tough choosing which 2 to cut if Master of Puppets and One were on the list though.
Creeping Death
Blackened
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
..And Justice for All
Battery
Ride the Lightning
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Honourable mentions to The Four Horsemen, Fade to Black and To Live is to Die.
-
blackened
disposable heroes
welcome home
orion

leper messiah
for whom the bell tolls
basically anything off of puppets
-
Creeping Death
The Four Horsemen
Seek and Destroy
Battery
Ride the Lightning
The Frayed Ends of Sanity
For Whom The Bell Tolls
KEA + RTL are so much better than the rest of their albums
-
Disposable Heroes
Welcome Home
Orion
Battery
Leper Messiah
Ride the Lightning
From Whom the Bell Tolls

A few absolutely brutal choices in there...

Battery
Fade to Black
-
Creeping Death
Blackened
Battery
Ride the Lightning
The Thing That Should Not Be
Harvester of Sorrow

-
Surprised to see Fade to Black so high. I always felt that one was a bit “meh” compared to their other ballads/songs in general.
-

Guessing you're referring to Motorbreath and Trapped Under Ice.
Or maybe Master of Puppets and One (I'd have voted for the former but not the latter). I chose:
Damage
Creeping Death (my all-time favorite Metallica song and, I assume, mandatory listening at Passover observances)
Blackened
Four Horsemen
Battery
Ktulu
Bell (mostly because I loved playing this when I was in a band way back when)
Too many honorable mentions to mention
-

I'll occasionally use Adami's second tab approach, but I always have my email client open on a second monitor, so more often than not I just compose in that window and C/P it back over. I'll occasionally use that approach for multi-quoting, as well.
My problem with polls here is that the results should scale to screen width. Compare Whiplash's measly 1 vote to Kthulu's 12 and you can barely tell the difference. Or, SMF could simply re-order the results.
Anyhoo:
Creeping
Justice
Orion
To LIve is to Die
Battery
Harvester
Fade
Not much love for Harvester around these parts. Been a fan ever since I saw them debut it at the Texxas Jam with John Marshall on guitar. Cool shit.
-
My list:
Damage Inc.
Creeping Death
Blackened
Disposable Heroes
The Four Horseman
The Thing That Should Not Be
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Blackened is my favorite Metallica song.
I could have picked 2 or 3 more. This is a great list. Thanks for not putting Enter Sandman on it. :biggrin:
-
Thanks for not putting Enter Sandman on it.
Preeetty sure that came out in the 90's? But correct me if I'm wrong

You're correct. I misread the thread title (80's Metallica songs).
-
Damage Inc.
Creeping Death

Blackened
Orion
Sanitarium
Fade to Black
-
Hmm, something like this:
Creeping Death
Blackened
Fight Fire with Fire
Battery

I would've given a vote to "Motorbreath".
-

Hard to pick just seven as there are so many great songs there. One always holds a special place for me so that definitely would have made my list if it was an option.
-
I went with the following.
Damage Inc.
Creeping Death
Disposable Heroes
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
Battery
Ride the Lightning
Hit The Lights
I wasn't really too much of a fan of Fade to Black and For Whom the Bell Tolls in general.
-
This is a hard one!
Four Horsemen, Fight Fire with Fire, Battery, Ride the Lightning, The Thing that Should Not Be, The Call of Ktulu, Fade to Black
Glad some people picked Thingy, an underrated Metallica song in my opinion.
-
I'm only the second to vote for Phantom? Wow.
