Product Description: \N
Amazon.com: While not as timeless as Ride the Lightning or Master Puppets, Metallica's debut album--originally released in 1983--is still a fine piece of thrash metal, and as good a marker as any for the debut of the genre. Fusing the rapid-fire attack of bands like Motorhead with a guitar style reminiscent of such British heavy metal bands as Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, Metallica essentially created a new kind of metal. Several of the songs from this 1983 album have since become classics, including "Seek & Destroy", "The Four Horsemen", and "Jump in the Fire". The songwriting isn't as sophisticated as on Metallica's later releases; still, it's a great listen, and essential for any heavy metal fan. --Genevieve Williams

Metallica-Kill 'Em All ****
The cover says it all really...
The infamous debut from Metallica, thrash metals most popular band. Kill 'Em All is one of those albums that either do it for you or it doesn't. It is loud, fast, and in your face. James Hetfield can't sing here, though he never really has been able too, and his lyrics leave something to be desired. They would improve over the years but here they are a joke. Cliff Burton kills, but often fumbles over himself. Though his solo on 'Pulling Teeth' is over the top. Lars was far from Lars. Kirk Hammet...well this is his album. A real riff fest, solos from out of this world and Hammet nails them all. Though Dave Mustaine wrote most everything before being kicked out ... Read More:

There probably isn't much to say about this album that hasn't already been covered by someone else's review. But I've been a Metallica fan since this album originally dropped and I'm still a fan to this day. I've managed to forgive them for Load...and Reload...and St. Anger. I'm trying to muster up the courage to buy Death Magnetic. But enough about all that...this is still my favorite Metallica album of all time for one simple reason...DAVE MUSTAINE! Listen to riffs like the main riff of Seek and Destroy and tell me it's not magic. I have respect for Kirk Hammett and he's done some great guitar playing over the years, but as far as writing music goes, Mustaine just writes catchier riffs...well not so much anymore, but definitely on this ...

I'm not quite a fan of the re-issue of this album, for one very good reason. Before I get into that reason, I'll say that Kill Em All was my FAVORITE Metallica album of all time. Great hard stuff that'll never exist ever again. Which brings me to why I don't like this album:
They cut Blitzkrieg (a cover, I know) off the album. Why? So they could slap it on an album of covers in the future and make you buy another CD to get this one track.
No thanks. Glad I've still got my original pressing of this album with ALL the tracks on it.

This album is as heavy and fast as Metallica ever got. One of the few albums you can listen to all the way through. A highly underrated album in my opinion.
