I go back and forth between Ride the Lightning and Kill 'Em All, the two albums that in my eyes revolutionized heavy metal. Metallica's debut brought a punk edge to metal, combining a bunch of different influences into one streamlined genre of music. The band's second effort is a fantastic leap forward in just about every way the band makes major strides in songwriting and musicianship, the production is a little bit cleaner, the track list is more diverse, and the band is truly forging their own path here, mostly shedding the Motörhead and Minor Threat influences. This record encapsulates everything about Metallica's youthful energy, puts it in a time machine, and catapults it ten years into the future in terms of maturity. There are hints of Rush and early Slayer, but the band still retains some of their edgy rage. The A-side of this record is absolutely flawless. "Fight Fire with Fire" opens with an acoustic intro followed by one of the heaviest, fastest, most intense riffs that Hetfield ever wrote. But this song is more than just a straightforward scorcher, there are different instrumental changeups and James's vocal performance is more of a bark to throw the song forward. and BLITZKRIEG published by Men From The North Ltd.The title track follows with just as much aggression but an even more complex song structure, and Kirk's solo (even if it borrows from Mustaine) is astonishing.
