Load

Double 180 Gram Heavyweight Vinyl With 'Load' Metallica takes a dramatic left turn with their music continuing in the direction suggested by Metallica their previous album The songs on 'Load' have groove they're slower with far fewer of the lightningfast riffs that have been Metallica's trademark since their inception While songs like 'Ain't My Bitch' and 'Wasting My Hate' are uptempo and full of the vitriol one would expect from the quintessential heavy metal band '2 X 4' is hard rock with a blues beat 'Hero of the Day' sounds positively mainstream and 'Mama Said' is an actual honesttogod ballad While some diehard fans may find this mix unappealing there's plenty to like about this album including its laidback rhythmic orientation and James Hetfield's characteristic growl tempered by his growing maturity as a vocalist
