it is the middle of drivel season and I am staring down the barrel of a few days off at work so my love of rankings is going to start today.
I did a Top 10 last summer of the best concerts I have been to and that was a lot of fun (mostly for me) so I feel like writing and ranking more stuff THIS summer.
So I want to start with my beloved Metallica and considering Auburn's Marching band won the Inaugural "For Whom the Band Tolls" contest, there is a kindred spirit between Auburn and Metallica...at least I have convinced myself of that...today....for this post...because I love Metallica and Auburn.
So here are my "definitive" rankings of Metallica's Studio Albums over their illustrious 43 year career...
1) And Justice for All
Favorite Song - Dyers Eve
2) Kill Em All
Favorite Song - Four Horsemen
3) Master of Puppets
Favorite Song - Disposable Heroes
4) Ride the Lightning
Favorite Song - Creeping Death
5) Black Album
Favorite Song - Through the Never
6) Death Magnetic
Favorite Song - All Nightmare Long
7) Load
Favorite Song - Bleeding Me
8) Hardwired to Self Destruct
Favorite Song - Spit Out the Bone
9) ReLoad
Favorite Song - Fixxxer
10) 72 Seasons
Favorite Song - Shadows Follow
11) St Anger
Favorite Song - Dirty Window
I am aware there will be debate here...this is my ranking and mine alone.
I promise I will not argue with anyone who disagrees because there are no wrong answers here.
If you love Metallica, I love your rankings.
I think next we will do my Top Ten Metallica Songs...I will try not to contradict myself after this list though
