 Metallica Angellica, The Unforgiven and Nothing Else Matters Nov 12, 2009
Sometimes the most meaningful truths can be expressed in the simplest words and one such sentence can affect and change the lives of millions. The message of Nothing Else Matters is straight forward: Be your own man, live your life however you choose and allow others the same. The message of The Unforgiven is: Don't let the rules of bitter fools change you into one of them.
Although I don't listen to Metallica albums and I am not sure how much we could have in common besides sharing our superstar city, once I heard Nothing Else Matters I was blown away by the power of their expression coming through. The Unforgiven is another beautiful song on this album. I am sure there is much more great music here but the speed of those expressions exceeds my ability to follow it correctly...these days. Obviously I could listen to the music of Metallica and Iron Maiden and Judast Priest for a week and be completely in tune with it and hooked on it again. Let's just say that it would collide with my present life style too much. I am quite aware that all of the above music rules its territory and I used to spend time there. After listening to Nothing Else Matters and The Unforgiven for a while I ended up getting all the Metallica albums in the middle of 1990s, looking for jewels. I ended up making my Metallica- light compilation in 2000 putting all these mellow, emotional and spiritual songs (for them and for most of you guys most likely) together so myself and some other sissies like me can say they also listen to Metallica. I am giving this Black Album (1991) five stars for Nothing Else Matters and The Unforgiven alone. So, here it is, Metallica Angelica:
1. Nothing Else Matters, eidt (1:40)
2. Turn The Page
3. The Unforgiven
4. Low Man's Lyric
5. Bleeding Me
6. Nothing Else Matters
7. Fade To Black
8. Untill It Sleeps
9. Whiskey In The Jar
10. The Unforgiven 2
11. Mama Said
12. Astronomy
13. Nothing Else Matters, edit (1:40)

Underrated, a great release, though Oct 20, 2009
I actually just bought this a few days ago, deciding to give it another chance. I have been on a metallica kick recently. I saw them on this album tour 18 yrs ago and have been a fan since the very early days. I still have the no life to leather demo, so I go back a long time. Maybe age has softened me. When this came out in '91 I hated it with a passion. I was so entrenched in death metal (still am) and thrash that this release felt like a betrayal for being such a loyal fan, The band gave up their thrash roots and were influenced by Bob Rock way too much. Well if the band wanted to still put out a thrash album they could have at that point. It was not like Bob Rock was pointing a gun to the members heads, the band was just way too easily influenced with him at the helm. It's a shame. A bunch of these songs I still feel would have been better if they were thrashed and speeded up. Anyway, enter a more mellow band. The band experimented with simpler song structures with a pretty massive production. I do like the production on this and the guitar sound is amazing. Songs are super catchy, enter sandman, the amazing sad but true-killer riff, the unforgiven, struggle within, nothing else matters, all catchy numbers. The band quickly made millions of new fans with this release and enter sandman started to get played at baseball and football games across the world. I have opened up over the years more, and feel this is a great record. I don't think it holds a candle to their first 4 releases or death magnetic, but I do feel that it's a great heavy record in it's own right.
 It's Good Oct 07, 2009
I had this on cassette tape when it first came out. This is viewed as a sell out, as Metallica gained widespread mainstream acceptance. Key tracks are: Enter Sandman, Holier Than Thou, The Unforgiven and Nothing Else Matters. While before for most of the 80s they were an acrhetype speed/thrash metal band, here the songwriting is more pop oriented, scoring several hit singles. My only complaint is it's just old. But it still holds up.

Black Album Sep 25, 2009
This is the greatest CD to ever hit the entire universe. No doubts about it. Nothing can touch it and will never ever be able to touch it garenteed.

Last Album before they Sold out- Metallica-The Black Album. Sep 15, 2009
Real Metallica at it's highest peak before they sold out with "Load" a Load of Garbage. Songs Like Enter Sandman, OF Wolf and Man, Sad But True, and "The Unforgiven" as one of the best. As well "Don't Tread on me"(I'm a Republican:) and my Favorite "Wherever I may Roam". Not Too keen on The God that failed. Last of Metallica's Heydays. Get The Early Albums and leave this Last.
