Top 10 Best Songs from Metallica's Load and Reload
Since they are both similar in style, I thought I might as well rank the best to worst songs from both Load (1996) and Reload (1997).
Great song. Should be a little higher.
This one was by far my favorite from the Load-Reload albums.
Very underrated song!
Fuel is so iconic.
I think it's underrated because of the greatness of the first opus, but the second actually deserves to be listened to without thinking about the first one.
I love this song. Structurally, it's very similar to Enter Sandman. It starts off soft, then builds, goes softer in the pre-chorus, then bursts into an energetic chorus. After the solo, it slows down but picks up again. The lyrics are gold. Instrumentally, it's charged and energetic.
One of Metallica's best songs after the Black Album era, up until 72 Seasons.
This list is messed up in so many ways. Songs like Cure, Prince Charming, and Slither above this? No way. This song is one of the best from the Load/Reload era. There's a reason why they debuted it live at the Fillmore show.
The Newcomers
This song is full of energy. Give it another listen.
Underrated masterpiece.
Not perfect, but it deserves its place in the top 10.
Ehhh, the heaviness is good.
Underrated progressive song. The darkness of the main clean riff is really great, though it feels like they finished this song just because they "had to."
