'Ride The Lightning' is my fave Metallica album. I think 'Puppets' is a little overrated, but definitely a great album! People who slam it now are only doing so because of how popular Metallica became, which is just sad really.

It's definitely a great album, but I still prefer ''Ride The Lightning'' and ''Kill'em All'' albums over this one.

IMO all Metallica 80's albums are great. Also "Black Album" (Metallica 1991) is one of my favorite albums of all times. That was the apex for Metallica !

That was actually the single most laughable and pititful so-called review I have read on MA. Okat MoP isn't as good as Ride The Lightning but to say it killed heavy metal 
Reading his review it is aparent the guyss knows shit all aboutmetak and thrash in particular. He is a huge musical revisionist.

That isn't revisionism, it's stupidity, but it gets in your head and starts to tinker with it if you're newer to the genre.

Acutally it is revisinism cause UltraBoris has a tendency to rewrite history to suit his own tastes/opinions in the meantime ignoring quite a few facts.

The guy is actually quite funny, if you don't take him seriously. But the lack of quality control over there really makes MA unsuitable for recommendations. In any case, no single review will ever change the general perception of any album.

Actually, when you type in "UltraBoris" in Google you'll see a fair lot of people mocking him. I don't think anyone takes him seriously, except if your mind enters an anti-mainstream, anti-Metallica delusion like mine did for half an hour or so.

A Metallica's very good album. Some _major_ influence by several other metalheads around. Also i guess several other non-metal bands have taken this album as a "concept" of what metal 'was' (or was suposed to be for some people).
Battery!

Ahhh...I remember that review! Though I could hardly forget it. lol 
Ive seen a lot of bad reviews in my time, but that one is definitely the worst Ive ever seen. The whole thing about the album "killing thrash metal" was just beyond ludicrous. Ultraboris is an extreme example of the idiots in the "tr00" metal brigade, and has an attitude which just as ridiculous, if not even more ridiculous than blind fanboyism. Not least, because these type of people usually criticise fanboys of popular metal bands. A lot of metalheads just love to bash Metallica, because its seen as the "cool" thing to do, but they come off as nothing but total posers, which is the complete irony of it all. Im sorry, but anyone who gives Master Of Puppets 0/100 is not a metal fan, and is nothing but a "tr00" poser. Ultraboris is a complete eejit.

If that was a swipe at me, you're seriously deluded. I dont like anything because it's "cool", I just like what I like. Its funny that my opinions have been derided both by blind fanboys and "tr00ists" like you. You're as bad as each other! The fact that you even considered for a second letting that moronic review affect how you saw the album in any way, I think says a lot. Anyone who allows how others see their opinions to affect their judgement on music is a poser.

Well, there's a difference between criticising something honestly, and criticising something "just because". When I criticise something, its because I genuinely dont like it. When "tr00" people criticise a band/album, its done for their personal image. There is no doubt that some "tr00" metalheads criticise Metallica simply because they are Metallica. Ultraboris's review of this album being the extreme edge of that attitude. Poserism at its worst. Just as bad as fanboyism.
Implying is more or less accusing. Anyways, you did in another thread flat out accuse me of "praising everything every band has ever done". That wasnt an implication, but a direct accusation. And also a complete falsehood.

Some people, yes. But a lot of the time, people do it because they're sick of people kissing the album/band's feet like they're gods or something. Not in UltraBoris's case though.
Well, I did get quite sick of your long "oh this song is heavy, etc." posts. Never knew a person could respect/be fascinated so much by songs which really aren't much at all, just have small, appealing elements thrown in.
Oh wait... this is entirely subjective, right? So that must mean I lose, huh?

While that is true to an extent, the problem with that attitude is, it lumps in blind fanboys with people who genuinely like the music being put out. Example: I love most of the music on "Load", so I rate that album highly. Many would brand me a poser just for liking that album, which is moronic. A poser is someone who praises/criticises music blindly. Their opinion of the music is affected by other factors which have little or nothing to do with the actual music itself. The ironic thing is "tr00ism" and fanboyism are just different sides of the same coin. Both groups of people are posers, but for different reasons. "Tr00ism" is marginally worse, because they see their opinions as being gospel when it comes to "real metal".
You thinking that certain songs "aren't much at all" is just your opinion. Not a fact. Getting annoyed just because someone fails to agree with your opinions on music is completely childish. And yep, subjective opinions carry less credibility than objective ones.

VezzyRattlehead, shut up. The fact that you actually even paused to consider the validity of that infamous review is a strong inclination that you are a wet-behind-the-ears newbie to metal that would do anything to fit in. I do not know what your problem with Angelic Storm is and she does not need anyone to speak for her, but you really shut before you start looking really stupid.

The review goes way too far and looses contact with reality at times, but the guy has a few good points.
For example, I totally agree about "Darkness Descends", "Reign In Blood" and "Pleasure To Kill" being all better than "Master Of Puppets".
The only reason those albums never were as popular as MOP is they're too extreme for that. Too uncompromising. They have nothing commercial. MOP is much more accessible than them.
But I must admit I never liked Metallica and never found anything special in this band.
And if there's an album that killed metal, it is not MOP but the black album because it showed that metal bands can make a shitload of money by selling out and releasing mainstream crap
EDIT: And Lars Ulrich can't be compared to Gene Hoglan, Dave Lombardo or Ventor Reil. They all utterly destroy him nowadays. They were always better than him but now that Ulrich stopped caring for his skills long ago, the difference is even much bigger than it was in 1986.

I agree those albums are better even Pleasure To Kill. But that is the only he is right about. Those three drummers are of course also better but than again which drummer isn't? ulrich always was Metallica's weak spot. iMO Ride The Lightning is still their best by far. mop just being a weaker copy of that one.
