That's what I ****ing love about bands like them. Somewhat similar to Iron Maiden, with their galloping palm-muted triplet. I think it is fucking great when a band has a couple of trademark riffs, and you hear it in their first album, along with their most recent albums.

There's no defending St. Anger, they should have been arrested pending its release.
Lol wut?! They sound nothing alike. ...And Justice Before All was progressive thrash, while The Black Album was more like arena metal. It reminds me of Journey with a little more balls.

Thats my favorite aspect of bands like Slayer, Iron Maiden, Pantera,..The guitar "Trademark Riffs". These guys produce some of rocks best on guitar along with some amazing vocals.

As far as actually listing to the music, I would go with Metallica or Journey's music anytime.

The albums do share similarities, for example, it's impossible to not notice the same sort of plodding riffing that "Sad But True" and "Harvester of Sorrow" have in common. As for the Journey comparison...utter blasphemy! lol

Of course there are similarities. They're both albums by the same band after all, but those similarities are too shallow to say they really resemble each other. But "Enter Sandman" gives me more the feeling of "Jukebox Hero" by Foreigner than "Seek and Destroy".

And you could make the same argument for One, see there's another resemblance. The two biggest singles from those respective albums sound un-thrash lol

calling the black album irrelevant makes sense to me because it's when they sold out and decided to play hard rock instead of metal. the fact that it sold millions goes along with that and is part of the proof. and sounding like and justice for all? i think the batlord cleared that up..

Selling 15 million copies is the exact opposite of being irrelevant. They might be irrelevant to you personally, but the fact that we're talking about them here and now proves how relevant they actually are.
