While I agree Elder wasn’t heavy metal - as I recall there were commercials for a movie for which it was originally intended to be the soundtrack. If you listen to the songs in order it tracks along that line. The movie was scrapped if I remember right. In the end I liked the album and still play it periodically to my daughters chagrin :)

There would have been just enough from the 3 albums to make 1 good one, but someone decided to pump out albums during a really bad time in the personal lives of the band.
I read a story about Lars. Didn't know some of his history, growing up a spoiled rich kid with a tennis pro daddy. Kind of explains some things.

How about a list of the
best heavy metal albums of all time instead? I'll contribute "Power Slave", which contains the best anti war song of all time: "Two Minutes To Midnight". How can you not love those lyrics?
We used to play it in our tank and it revved us up like nothing else!

Load wasn't
that bad, and Reload wasn't completely
terrible. St. Anger was
pure crap, though, and Lars ruined whatever flow the album may have had with his staccato and slightly off-tempo drumming. I literally listened to that entire album twice and have never listened to it again. It's on a shelf somewhere; I never even troubled myself to dump it into Napster (then) or iTunes (now).
I also disagree with the inclusion of Bark at the Moon, but then again, I was 11 years old or so then, so perhaps I wasn't the best critic for that work by Ozzy.

Regarding number three, one name disproves the general rule on keyboard players: Jon Lord. Word.

Heard that new Metallica+Lou Reed song on satellite radio a couple of days ago. I can’t even begin to describe how bad I thought it sucked!! Oh my..... I never imagined James Hetfield to be capable of such crap, even after considering the three albums mentioned in the article.
Cliff Burton has to be rolling, rolling, and rolling in his grave! ....and rolling some more!
Don’t know what the rest of the album is like, but if that one song is any indicator of the rest, it will easily make that list.

How can you not love those lyrics? Another of the BEST was mentioned as a screen name in post #13...'Rainbow Rising'. Dio, Powell and Blackmore unleashed...

A Metallica/Reed retake on Rock n Roll Animal would rule. I don’t think that’s likely, supposedly Lou hates that album and it’s the best thing he ever did. The guitarists went on to the Alice Cooper band.
And Fear of The Dark is an awesome album, “afraid to shoot stangers?! That awesomsauce. It seems to go down live pretty good too.
No way Never Say Die is as bad as some of the later 80’s Sabbath records, either.
And Lemmy has a great song with piano, “I ain’t No Nice Guy After All”.

Load had some good cuts on it,as usual the ones that didn’t get airplay were the best. As far as Reload, I like Fuel.

Worst metal album of all time?
Any band that hangs around to long starts to suck. Thats just the way it is. After 4 or 5 albums it’s over. No exceptions.
