Metallica reaches commercialism with surprising result. This album isn’t by any means perfect. It’s got things about it that ARE perfect, but other things just feel out of place in my opinion. Still, there is a reason why this is the best selling metal album ever made, and it’s easy to see why. It’s got an amazing mix, it’s got mostly good songwriting, and the songs are extremely heavy and delve into complex topics that make the listener think. Overall, this album is damn good. I give Metallica’s self titled an 85%.

P.S. Sorry I haven't written a review for a while, I've had problems logging in.

Despite the fact that 'Rust In Peace' is one of the best technical trash and metal albums of all time, it is still slightly overrated in my opinion. There are some real gems on the album, but unfortunately the song material is a bit uneven, and Mustaine's vocals are not quite on the level of Dio or Dickinson. On the other hand, the production of the album has been brilliantly successful, and the length of the album is just optimal. And not every album needs to be perfect to become a classic.
An excellent, classic, and absolutely unique album that everyone must incorporate into their own metal DNA if they want to call themselves a Metal Head.

Highlights: Tornado Of Souls, Hangar 18, Holy Wars... The Punishment Due

Weakest Moments: Dawn Patrol, Poison Was The Cure
