Last night I was watching the Seattle Concert in the ‘Live Shit: Binge & Purge’ with a few mates. Awesome concert by the way.
We got into the discussion of ‘What are the top 10 Metallica songs?’ It lead to a fair amount of debate so I thought I would pose the question to you guys.
Put your’s down in order from 1-10. Mine go…
- Sanitarium
- Seek & Destroy
- The Unforgiven
- Bleeding me
- One
- Creeping Death
- Battery
- The Thing that should not be
- Enter Sandman
- No Remorse
I narrowed it down to 25 songs and had to go from there. Let’s see how you go.
- Seek And Destroy
- Master of Puppets
- Battery
- Creeping Death
- One
- Sanitarium
- Whiplash
- Wherever I May Roam
- Fade To Black
- Orion
It’s almost unfair to have a top ten, I can listen to most of their stuff straight through until Load
Seek and Destroy used to be my all-time fave. I still love it.
How come noone’s mentioned the Horsemen?
DOH!
Disposable Heroes goddammit!
Double DOH!
hello? The Shortest Straw???
geez people!

Put your 10 in. It’s a tough job trying to narrow it down if you are a big fan.
- Don’t Tread On Me
- Unforgiven
- Bleeding Me
- Fade to Black
- Of Wolf and Man
- Nothing Else Matters
- Outlaw Torn
- My Friend of Misery
- Creeping Death
- Until It Sleeps
It’s funny how my tastes have changed over time. These 10 are the ones that stuck with me, but they certainly weren’t my favorites originally. Although I’ve always been partial to the Black Album over all their others.
All of And Justice for All
Whiplash
The Phantom Lord
The original poster’s list NEEDS Fade to Black

It was one of my honorable mentions.
I should tally these scores up and give you all a result when the thread dies.
Mate, narrow down to a top 10 and then list in order? Thats difficult, but here we go:
- Master of Puppets
- Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
- Nothing Else Matters
- Battery
- Four Horsemen
- One
- Mama Said
- Wherever I may roam
- Fade to Black
- For whom the bell tolls
-
Disposable Heroes…
- YouTube
- YouTube
-
Dyers Eve…
Dyers Eve - YouTube
-
Orion
-
One
-
Sanatarium
-
And Justice For All
7 Master of Puppets
-
Eye of The Beholder
-
Thing That Should Not Be
-
Harvester of Sorrow
- To Live Is To Die
- Blackened
- The Shortest Straw
- Trapped Under Ice
- Fade to Black
- The Unforgiven
- My Friend of Misery
- Don’t Tread On Me
- Sad But True
- The Struggle Within
After the black album the only song I liked is “Hero of The Day”.
Best cover song Blitzkrieg
Album Rating…
1st- Tie ‘Master of Puppets’ & ‘And Justice For All’ (Metallica’s best music)
then… Ride The Lightning & The Black Album
then… who gives a shit, the “Kill em’ All” album was too instrument and not enough music & the newer albums are all too sellout and why listen to them when you have "Master of Puppets, And Justice For All, Ride The Lightning, & The Black Album
I have said my peace… I have said too much. Its not 1988 anymore so the era of great metal from Metallica is over… enjoy the old shit!
