Underrated Metallica tracks

Why does everyone forget these quality tracks? Explain.
1Metallica
...And Justice for All


Eye Of The Beholder

Metallica released this as a single. Despite that, and being on the classic 4, nobody talks about this track. One, Blackened, title track, Shortest Straw, but why not this one? The pre-chorus "doesn't matter what you" riff is fucking headbangy as it gets. The band have only played it twice live ever. What the fuck guys, this song is amazing.
2Metallica
Load


Hero Of The Day

not thrash so must be shit. Seriously, cmon guys, the lyrics in this song are absolute best in the band's entire collection, no competition.

CANT YOU HEAR YOUR BABAYS CRYAYINNNNN
3Metallica
Load


Bleeding Me

The clean guitar tone alone makes this song awesome. I don't get the hate for this one at all because it gets a lot of it.
4Metallica
Load


Outlaw Torn

I've realized that more and more people are starting to like this song, but not too many discuss it. This is quite possibly Metallica's most emotional song, as Load is easily Metallica's most emotional album. This serves as an amazing closer and the end riff is so damn good.
5Metallica
...And Justice for All


Frayed Ends Of Sanity

Probably the coolest Metallica song name, fitting because everything off of this song rules. It is, maybe, my favorite track off of AJFA and every riff is fucking awesome. It's also one of the most difficult songs to play in Metallica's discog due to the time sig changes. James has said he hates the song and the band has only played the full song once. ONCE, and it was in July of 2014. Fuck.
6Metallica
St. Anger


The Unnamed Feeling

Another single that the band forgot existed...sucks, because it's the best song on the album. Bad production aside, I love everything about this song. It's the only song on St Anger without either abysmal or repetitive lyrics, the main riff rules, and the soft chorus to heavy chorus transition is played so well. The last chorus in particular rules so hard. Should have been the closer.
7Metallica
...And Justice for All


To Live Is To Die

People know this one is amazing, but it's often overshadowed by the more popular Call Of Ktulu and, usually, Orion. The main riff is fucking heavier than John Goodman, the acoustic intro/outro is gorgeous, the sad midsection is very emotive, and the guitar solos are among Kirk's best. Jam this.
8Metallica
Reload


Fixxxer

The only bad thing about this song is the use of three X's in the title. Just take 4 and lower it a tad bit, but the chorus in this song is one of my favorite choruses in any song ever.
9Metallica
Load


Wasting My Hate

The closest thing to thrash on the album.
10Metallica
Metallica


People who say The Black Album has no thrash haven't heard this track. Post-solo riff is one of my faves from Metallica.
11Metallica
St. Anger


My World

What can I say, it's a badass track. Makes me wanna hop onto a chopper and mow down zombies with a shotgun Machete style. IT'S MY WORLD YOU MOTHERFUCKERS! Not only do I not know the answer I DONT EVEN KNOW THE FUCKING QUESTION.
12Metallica
Beyond Magnetic


Just A Bullet Away

Solid track with a the heaviest Metallica main riff since The Black Album. Lars's boring as fuck drumming almost ruin the song, but I still love that riff and the sudden clean moment that pops the fuck outta nowhere screams of prog. Love it.
13Metallica
Kill 'Em All


Jump In The Fire

Metallica has a knack for releasing singles that nobody gives a shit about. This, Eye Of The Beholder, Unnamed Feeling, and some others like Better Than You, Broken Beat & Scarred, Judas Kiss, and a few others. Ironically, most of Metallica's most iconic tracks never were singles. Anyways, Jump In The Fire is one of those overlooked singles. The fucking end solo is like the best thing ever tho.
14Metallica
St. Anger


Sweet Amber

The main riff is great, I'll give it that. That's about it.
15Metallica
Reload


Low Man's Lyric

Lovely emotive song. The hurdy-gurdy is a pretty good reason for someone to dislike it, but it's just a little piece of experimentation from Metallica.
