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).
-
Bleeding Me - Load
This one was by far my favorite from the Load-Reload albums.
Very underrated song!
-
Until It Sleeps - Load
Great song. Should be a little higher.
-
Fuel - Reload
Fuel is so iconic.
-
The Unforgiven II - Reload
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.
-
The Outlaw Torn - Load
-
King Nothing - Load
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.
-
Hero of the Day - Load
-
The Memory Remains - Reload
One of Metallica's best songs after the Black Album era, up until 72 Seasons.
-
Mama Said - Load
-
Carpe Diem Baby - Reload
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.

Ronnie - Load

Attitude - Reload
This song is full of energy. Give it another listen.
-
2 x 4 - Load
Not perfect, but it deserves its place in the top 10.
-
Ain't My Bitch - Load
-
Fixxxer - Reload
Underrated masterpiece.
-
Low Man's Lyric - Reload
-
The House Jack Built - Load
-
Wasting My Hate - Load
-
Devil's Dance - Reload
Ehhh, the heaviness is good.
-
Where the Wild Things Are - Reload
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."
-
Prince Charming - Reload
-
Better Than You - Reload
-
Thorn Within - Load
-
Poor Twisted Me - Load
-
Bad Seed - Reload
-
Cure - Load
-
Slither - Reload
