I wasn't the biggest Metallica fan, well, ever, but I have heard some stuff on the radio that seemed pretty damn good.. but I don't know which songs they were. I have Unforgiven I and II, they're alright... but I'm thinking something faster and crazier. Any ideas? Which songs/albums would you suggest? What are your favorites?

ive been a metallica fan for almost 10 years so i know what stuff is good and whats ok - generally their older stuff is alot better but they got a lot of good songs on load,reload but they are nothing like they were back in the 80's.
take a look at master, justice for all, and lightning for their best albums
some great songs:
to live is to die
orion (masterpiece)
breadfan
blackened
damage inc.
escape
fade to black
welcome home (santarium)
the thing that should not be
eye of the beholder
whiplash (more thrashy)
hope this helps

there can be no favorite metallica song...they have atleast a dozen songs which if put into 12 different albums with the rest as filler...the result would be 12 platinum albums...

Whisky in the Jar was indeed a Thin Lizzy song.

I feel old when I realize that I bought Master the week it came out...16 years ago.

Best song is Dyer's Eve. It just makes me want to kill someone.

Whiskey in the Jar is an Irish drinking song. Thin Lizzie did a version (which Metallica based their version on), but it is not a Thin Lizzie song.

Tie for favorite song:

Master of Puppets
Bleeding Me


Lethal
