Probably have not listened to this album in at least 10 years. I know because it was once stolen from my collection and I just now repurchased
it. Seems I don't care for it as much as before. Still love Enter Sandman but that was it this time around. Have to give the band credit for
getting me back into metal for a brief period. Amazing how the sales for this album took off. Everybody calls it their sellout album. I was glad
they did. I tried the earlier stuff and couldn't handle it. I like some melody with my metal. Anyway we all know the story. This album cemented
their place in history. Every album after this has gone #1 here, although none have come close in total sales. This is the only album I have by
the band. I did hear Load and Reload and liked them both, just never followed up.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
