Mark My nostalgia wants to convince you this is a better album than it is but there’s no way around the fact that it sags badly.

Chris The bathroom break record (albeit 1 or 2 classics).

Alex Overload. We didn’t need two albums of this.

Kevin Feels like an album out of order. Would have been a better bridge between “Metallica” and “Load”.

Love It or Flush It Legend

L = Love. As many as you like.

F = Flush. Must flush at least one track per album.

B = Buy. Purchased for the ultimate LTS “Best Of” playlist for each of us. One per album.

T = Terminate. Should have never even existed. One per album.

The Rules

Each of us must Love, Flush, Buy, and Terminate AT LEAST ONE track on an album, no matter how great or terrible the album is. Whoever wins the “7 for the Buy” section gets an extra Buy or Terminate to use on the album. Because Chris hosts this section and thus cannot win, he gets an extra Buy or Terminate every 4 albums.

Album Information

Reload is the seventh studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica, released on November 18, 1997[10] via Elektra Records.
