Album Notes
Metallica: James Hetfield (vocals, guitar); Kirk Hammett (guitar); Jason Newsted (bass); Lars Ulrich (drums).Additional personnel: Marianne Faithfull (vocals); Bernardo Begalli (violin); David Miles (hurdy-gurdy); Jim McGillveray (percussion).Producers: Bob Rock, James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich.Recorded at The Plant Studios, Sausilto, California between May 1995 and February 1996 and from July to October 1997."Fuel" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance. "Better Than You" won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.When Metallica recorded 1996's LOAD, the studio sessions were fruitful enough for the band to put out two records. A year and a half later, RELOAD is the inevitable follow-up. Stretching beyond Metallica's speed metal roots, RELOAD is a continuation of the experimentation that dismayed many old fans and welcomed in many new ones. As a result, many Metallica firsts are reached on their eighth album. Some anomalies include recruiting the legendary Marianne Faithfull to contribute backing vocals on "The Memory Remains" and the addition of hurdy-gurdy and violin to the mix of the wistful "Low Man's Lyric." Throughout all this experimentation, Metallica still plays hard and fast, particularly on the metal groove of "Fuel" and the relentless pounding of "Where The Wild Things Are," (a title borrowed from children's author Maurice Sendak). Metallica continues to reinvent itself in a genre where mediocrity is always just around the corner.

Editorial Reviews
3 Stars (out of 5) - ...more influenced by bluesy rock & roll than by any '90s trend....strongly rooted in the group's apocalyptic metal sound....The biggest change is an increased emphasis on rhythm...
Rolling Stone Magazine (12/11/1997)

...greasy, driving, full of fat grooves, lyric and rhythmic hooks, and sonic curveballs....captures one of rock's greatest bands at its peak...
Musician (02/01/1998)

...the boys are back in frown, gnarling their way through bristly thrashers and slithery ballads recorded during and after the LOAD sessions. RELOAD continues their journey into stripped-down maturity while toying with fresh melodic textures... - Rating: B

Having only previously owned the Black album from Metallica was not sure what to expect. I was pleasingly surprised and whilst not as strong as this album it does have some strong songs and is well worthy of adding to a collection

I think that Metallica have done it again - done another great album. I don't thin there's a bad track on here - as usual. Metallica are the rulers of metal - long may they reign!

It's a bit more "out there" after Load, but a great album all the same. Almost finished my Metallica music collection, I found it to be an interesting listen, good good music.
