i personally think it's the "and justice for all" album , inspite of the "black" album being their most famous and successful one .
although i'm no expert, i think the "justice for all" album has some of the best pieces written for the electric guitar EVER made .
the feel and atmosphere of the songs is unique and the music often faithfully conveys the message the lyrics stand for .
i also think the band has been on a steady downhill after the "load" album , maybe from unsuccessful attempts to become more mainstream ,compromising the "flavour" fans were used to .

Hey ride the lightning is great ! I love every one of the songs on the album , except maybe "fight fire with fire " , the best is "fade to black" it makes me really calm (and angry and sad) . call of cthulu great instrumental ."trapped under ice" also one of the best songs on the album .

it's hard to decide. every album is superb. my first album is Black album, and it's a great album. but soon after i listen to Justice, i realize that Black is not their greatest. i love load and reload too, and garage inc. "Low man liryc" is so touchy. and i luv "Turn the page" and "Astronomy" although those are cover song. if you guys don't mind, i choose all metallica album as my fav...:D

Hmmm.. my opinion is a lil different frm urs. I personally think their first album 'kill em all' was their best. There's some crazy guitar work in tat courtesy dave mustaine and even cliff is brilliant. Metal militia, four horsemen, seek and destroy, hit the lights..dese are among my favourites

I love every metallica album but my favorite one has to be ...and justice for all for the general quality of the music/lyrics.

i also am for the AND JUSTICE FOR ALL album for its cool sounds and heavy metal-natured tracks, especially their song ONE, we played that song in our annual BATTLE OF THE BANDS competition back in high school days, it opened the sleeping rockers out of students there. i still have their album in my cd collection

ONE is one of the best songs Metallica ever made and has been chosen as one of the "100 BEST GUITAR SOLOS" ever . A nice aspect in the music of the song is who it starts with a sad,lamenting ,slow melody as the story of the ex-soldier is told , then transforms into a fast loud play towards the end as anger becomes the theme of the lyrics .

In my opinion, ReLoad is really the best, look at the lyrics the music it is the closest to perfection i love all of their works and i do believe that some the old stuff has 2 be revisited using the new guitars and drums i guess that must be discussed in detail
