Description
The way Bleeding Me swells from a hush into that heaving midsection is the heart of Metallica’s Load. Across Load, the band leans into bluesy swing and big-room grooves without losing bite. Singles like Until It Sleeps and King Nothing carry choruses for days, but it’s the moody corners that keep you coming back. This 2LP pressing gives the riffs more air and the low end sits deeper, so Hetfield’s baritone and Newsted’s bass feel properly anchored. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Metallica records online with us. On Melbourne shelves it belongs alongside the Black Album era and a touch of Alice In Chains in mood, even while the tempos swagger rather than sprint. Bob Rock’s gloss favors feel over whiplash, and the slower burns suit these songs. Check the percussive scrape that tees up King Nothing’s main riff, or the way the guitars bloom under the bridge of Until It Sleeps. Load may have lost you in 1996; hearing it stretch out here is a good rethink. Spread over four sides, the sequence breathes and those humid grooves land with more authority. Order online now or swing past our Preston shop to pick it up.
