Have you actually heard those albums? How can you call Kill Em All buttrock? It's so trashy and nerdy. It's just metal for metal's sake and sounds nothing like the self-importance of their later albums. They're just young guys having fun making loud music.

I mean yeah they count although Feel the Fire wouldn't get as high marks as Killing Is My Business, Kill Em All, or Show No Mercy. Or Bonded By Blood.

That is indeed one of the ultimate jams of any genre and makes me think twice about repping any other album. Even dudebros know that track slays. I don't know if it's quite a top ten metal track but it's close. Definitely a top 50 if we're including all of music. One of my great memories of getting high with this psychopath I now despise was us both being Metallica fans and we'd throw "Seek and Destroy" on regularly in his truck and I'd rock out mightily.

I think No Remorse is better and easily the best song on KeA.

Bruh even Hetfield's vocals on Kill Em All are amazing. He sounds like this young guy who just really thinks metal is cool and wants to rage and thinks it's hella cool when other young guys "mosh" to his band's songs.

Oh and everybody thinks of the heavier and more aggressive songs from those albums as the best, but **** all of that. Some of those tracks off Kill Em All are just pure OG punkified hard rock metal energy fun. This is one of the best metal openers ever and is on the shortlist of songs I'd cover if I started my own retro 1st wave black metal band.

What do you mean? I'm willing to hear. It's a great track and I don't think I know. Talk to me.
