Yes, "Nothing Else Matters" from the S & M disk is AWSOME. My former BMW had a nice sound system in it and it just rocked cruising around with that tune on especially when the bass box would vibrate the whole car.

My Boxster with the basic stereo system however sounds like a tin can.

I was cruising today along the ocean with my new assistant listening to Ozzy live doing Paranoid from the Tribute album. My foot got a little heavy and before I knew it I was doing 135 mph with one hand in the air. My assistant was yelling "Papi papi! Mas rapido!!!" The orange sun was setting into the ocean, I could smell the cane burning in the distance and was surrounded by palm trees. It made all the taxes I had to pay on that car worth while.

Metallica became terminally ill with the black album and died forever with the release of Load.

Kill 'Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, GREAT albums !

And Justice for All, OK.

Everything since "Justice", total crap...

I love it we shall yet rescue cartegna's porsche from its audio misery.....got agree, sonically Bob Rock produced the black album incredibly, but if listen to metallica and got past and justice for all, well I think Blink 182 brings the rock a little heavier than hero of the day or nothing else matters

give me shortest straw, harvester of sorrow, creeping death, master is a phenom song....but you guys are rolling to King nothin...lol

like I said, the solution is in the CD

I happen to like the acoustic version of Nothing Else Matters. What the hell is this Blink 182 crap? I never heard of them so I just did a Google search which resulted in my computer making horrible sounding noises! Is this what the kids call music these days?

And for the record, "For Whom the Bell Tolls" sounds totally CRAP on the Boxster stereo.

If you liked acoustic Metallica, you should give Apocalyptica a shot. Apocalyptica's music consists, I believe, of 4 chellos. Their album Inquistion Symphany does a number of Metallica songs including Fade to Black. Very rich sounding.
