The album was the beginning of the end for Metallica in my view. The first four were absolute epic masterpieces. Then the Black album came out and was way too commercial and lost the edge of their previous releases. After Black, the downward spiral began with nothing but pure garbage until Death Magnetic.
I still love and listen to their first four albums, but my opinion of Metallica dropped substantially, and that all started with Black.
