    Just by seeing the thumbnail I knew. Sad and beautiful at the same time. Most Metallica fans say MOP is their favorite album, mine is AJFA.

      In my opinion, puppets and lightning are the best metallica albums. If only they waited to make another album, so they could do the best of justice and the best of the black album. Then there wouldn't have to be any fillers on both albums, and they had another fantastic album. Oh well, it was their decision.

      @@SamuraiFTF There are no filler songs for me in Justice.

      @@tonybp I tried enjoying that album so many times but I just don't see what other people see in it, I've been a metallica fan for like 6 years now, and I've never seen in justice what other people see in it. If I were to give it a rating (because there are 9 songs on justice) I'd give it a 4/9. The songs I like on justice are
      Blackened, ...and justice for all, Harvester Of Sorrow and To Live Is To Die. But everything else is just boring and repeptitive in my opinion. And feels like they tried TOO hard to make the songs complex, wich is a dumb decission because that's destined to fail after your best band member dies. (Miss you, Cliff)

    That is crazy because I knew it would be THAT particular riff from To Live Is to Die just by looking at the thumbnail.
    Wonderful song. Not a word is spoken here (save for James' little poem in the middle), but you feel an ocean of things inside. If you ever felt the pain and agony of losing someone dear to you, this would be the soundtrack. Powerful stuff...

    Definitely the saddest thing they’ve ever wrote. From the slow acoustic guitar intro, to the main riff, to the interlude, and the quote which brings it all home. It’s a masterpiece

    No, the saddest riff IMO is the clean riff immediately after this. It just hits so emotionally, especially if you know this is basically a farewell Ode to Cliff!

    Nope, not even close.
    The clean guitar of this song, that also follows the same melody is much sadder sounding, intros like fade to black and one are sadder. songs like hero of the day and low man’s lyrics r much creepier in sense of sadness.
    People just live this because loving cliff is cool.

      1. emotions are subjective
      2. people may fell more emotional given the context that it is cliff due to his death
      3. im gonna swing my balls like a pendulum over you
      4. the majority of the comment section agrees that it is the saddest
