1984 Metallica Album Combines Uncompromising Extremes, Refined Tunefulness, Smart Songwriting: Ride the Lightning Sounds Incredible on Remastered LP, Features “Fade to Black”<\/p>\n
The first metal album to take the art form to both uncompromising extremes while retaining an accessible tunefulness, Metallica’s breakout Ride the Lightning elevated heaviness to previously unforeseen heights and established the group as visionaries. Exploring death and mortality from myriad points of view \u2013 nuclear war on “Fight Fire with Fire,” on-field battle on “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” electric-chair execution on the title track, drowning on “Trapped Under Ice”, suicide on the classic “Fade to Black” \u2013 the 1984 thrash masterwork retains a level of intelligence and mature perspective that compliment the band’s refined assault and toughened hooks. Rapid-fire guitar riffs, roaring solos, James Hetfield’s trademark vocal growl, drummer Lars Ulrich’s sparse fills, and Cliff Burton’s lead-guitar-style bass lines form an impenetrable wall of sound, power, and strength. Ride the Lightning has never felt bigger \u2013 or better \u2013 than on this remastered 180g vinyl LP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
