For nearly four decades, Metallica has been the undisputed heavyweight champion of heavy metal. From the breakneck speed of 1980s thrash to the arena-filling anthems of the 1990s, their catalog is a battlefield of iconic riffs. While compiling their “greatest hits” is a near-impossible task (fans will always argue over the missing deep cut), a serves as the perfect artillery shell for both the curious newcomer and the longtime fan seeking a concise, high-voltage playlist.
For those who want a live "Greatest Hits" feel, the S&M double CD is the gold standard. Recorded with the San Francisco Symphony, it features definitive versions of "Master of Puppets," "One," and "For Whom the Bell Tolls." It covers the band’s entire trajectory up to 1999. 3.
