I almost always hear of Master or Justice as their best album, and both are equally valid imo. Now Black Album, THAT would be controversial.
If they released Kill em All today, I think it would be considered Metal because it wouldn’t really fit anywhere else. Their newer stuff is already not really considered Metal in elitist circles though, is it?
Interesting. I have 100% of the time heard Ride the Lightning as their best. I personally think that Load up to St. Anger are definitely in the hard rock category for my own mental categorization. I never listened to anything after that though.
I don’t really think I’m an elitist. I just feel like that even on the black album, they were just trending to a much different sound that doesn’t really fit the bill. Not making a value judgment. That’s just how I think of it in my head.

Hottest take: Load is their best album. Lol
