Metal Album Review: Kill'em All, MetallicA

Welcome to Metal Album Review where we take new, classic, and crappy metal albums and analyze them song by song and give the history of some songs. Since this is the first edition of Metal Album Review it will set the standard formula for future posts. So lets starts with the first part of the album experience, the artwork and song titles.

The cover of this album is interesting, a hammer either dropped of placed in a pool of blood with a hand fading away, it implies that a murder has just been committed and the murderer is just leaving. As for the back and song titles, I like the picture of the band, it gives a personal connection as you know who you are listening to looks like, however it is not a complete picture of all the rockers on the album because Dave Mustaine left MetallicA before the album was released, however formed the popular metal band Megadeth, because of tension with bassist Ron McGovney who was replaced with bassist Cliff Burton and Kirk Hamett replaced Dave Mustaine on guitar. Now on to the song titles:

Hit the Lights, The Four Horsemen, Motorbreath, Jump in the Fire, (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth, Whiplash, Phantom Lord, No Remorse, Seek & Destroy, Metal Militia with bonus tracks Am I Evil? orginally by Diamond Head and Blitzkrieg by Blitzkrieg

The songs have great names for metal songs and makes you want to here the songs.

My review for the first three song will be out by the end of the weekend, for now

keep on rockin'
