Reload

Metallica · 1997

3.0

The leftovers album with a defense case: Reload completes the Load sessions' blues-rock detour, and "Fuel" plus "The Memory Remains" — Marianne Faithfull's ghostly cameo included — earn permanent setlist slots. The sprawl and the swagger both feel contractual in stretches. Lesser Metallica that another band would retire on.
