I downloaded One and Master of Puppets (songs) recently, and I would like to get to know Metallica better - but they don't have a Greatest Hits (to my knowledge) and I don't know where to start - I'm only getting one album from each band.
First, ignore anyone that says St. Anger, Load, ReLoad and the Black Album. My personal favorite is Master Of Puppets, but Ride The Lightning is a close 2nd.

um why? are you lord ans master of others opinions ? :o /bows
Kill em' All, Ride The Lightning, and Master of Puppets are all albums you need to get period. My favorite is actually Kill em' All. However, that just, and I do mean just, barely edges out Master of Puppets. However, And Justice For All... is a fantastic album. Even The Black Album(Metallica) is a great album.
I couldn't pick a favorite... I thought they all equally sucked... Aside from St. Anger... Which blew beyond comprehension... slorg_king
I disagree. St. Anger was an improvement over their other stuff, which was the equivalent of burning yourself alive while impaled. St. Anger was just the equivalent of being burned.
! album is not nearly enough metallica. They just plain rock, get three! The old stuff is better so get Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, and Kill 'em All. Rockon.

Well not Lord, or even Master, but I do think I'm doing people a service when steering them away from quote unquote Best Metallica Albums. Kinda like flashing your high beams at oncoming motorists to warn them of the impending speed trap. No one needs a speeding ticket, or the misrepresentation that Fuel is a good song.

I think by recommending Metallica albums in the first place you're doing an undesirable thing.

if you dont like metallica thats great. Just i dont think anyone cares. Different tastes in music... KILL EM ALL is really good.different sound then later stuff. They are all equal really. None is really better then the other but ride the lightning has fade to black which is amazing. All of them are good. But load and reload were wow they sound different, but still isnt totally crap. Then saint anger was just complete garbage.
the best album to start is definitely the black album (also known as Metallica, although its not their first album). Almost all songs are great and they arent dense, in other words its easy-listening, so its your best choice to start knowing them. After that you can listen to Master of Puppets album (listen to Disposable Heroes, my fav song), And Justice for All, etc
Anything that came after the black album prety much sucks, with the exception of a couple of songs

you have a lot of variety but why not metallica. Seems like something random. Anything you dislike paticularly? And which pantera do you like? Like power metal or newer? Lots of random questions but one more. Is nightwish a well known band?
