@@DieselRogers2008 Nah. My all-time favorite Metallica song is Fade to black. It's probably in my top 10 favorite songs across all genres of music and eras. It's not a bad song, but i feel as though it's lacking a bit of power and could really use it. For instance, they could have sped up the whole song and I wouldn't have been mad about it! It's got attitude, but it doesn't quite have the soulfulness of southern music / blues nor the speed of thrash metal, so it stands at an awkward middle for me... But, as I've said, not a bad song and you are right to say that it gets overlooked! It's a short song and it comes at the very end of the album if memory serves me right!

@@DieselRogers2008 Fr though, that song almost feels like it doesn’t belong on the black album, like the song structure is a little bit too complex. but it still has that drum beat that screams “biker rock”. But that breakdown is no joke.

@@brandondickie3456 Yeah I agree with you, it has that heaviness that the black album holds but it also has the thrashy elements in the song too. I feel like if it's like a heavy down-picking song with some good speed to it I would like to hear it on Ride The Lightning tone because it gives me that sense of Creeping Death type of song

The tone is certainly no FAIL.
