Time To Get Manly 55: Metallica - ... and Justice For All

I randomly ran across a list of what Esquire magazine claims are "The 75 Albums Every Man Should Own." In this series of posts, I'll explore these manly, manly sounds.

Metallica - ... and Justice For All

Metallica is an obvious choice for every man's record collection. So much thrashing! So much shredding! So much other violent-sounding music related terms! Whether Justice should be the one Metallica album every man should own is a little less clear. Justice was a huge commercial hit and features the song "One" which, due to the eerie and epic video's heavy rotation on MTV, served as an introduction to Metallica for many. I get that. However! I don't want to get too technical or academic about this, but I think I speak for Metallica scholars far and wide when I say that although Justice kicks ass, Master of Puppets kicks major fucking ass.
