Metallica, for including the lyric "DON'T FUCK WITH RAZORBACK".

"Mandy," God help me. I've never liked Metallica and I think Barry Manilow can put you into a pretty good sleep/coma state.

Slagging old-school Metallica can also put you into a coma.

A coma with a totally different quality...

Damage Inc is their absolute worst pre-Black Album song.

you nutter *salutes*

seriously though, how is it the worst? its a perfect album capper on a near-perfect album.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Friday, 12 May 2006 11:24 (twenty years ago)

leper messiah, now THATS a weak track (for that album anyway).

everything else on that record is pretty awesome if you ask me (though the first side is of course slightly better).

How about "Mandy" v. "For Whom The Bell Tolls"? Or "Battery"?

― J (Jay), Friday, 12 May 2006 11:29 (twenty years ago)

There's no doubt that MoP is a great album, but it does have its weak tracks: Damage Inc and, indeed, Leper Messiah. And these are worse than the lower points on the other three albums.

Metallica were simply never that good at the faster songs (esp compared to their peers Kreator/Megadeth/Dark Angel/etc).

― Siegbran (eofor), Friday, 12 May 2006 13:45 (twenty years ago)

Damage Inc is their absolute worst pre-Black Album song.

I would rank "...And Justice For All" or "Metal Militia" below "Damage, Inc."
