Since it's a slow day in the world of MMA, I thought it would be cool to talk about Tapology and ourselves.. anything at all regarding the same.  I'll get a brief start going..

I live in PA, am 30 and have been a fan of MMA since I was a teenager.  Work for the railroad and rarely ever miss an event regardless of promotion/stature.  I like Tapology b/c of the environment it fosters.  I wish we could edit/delete our posts... maybe have categories of threads for the forums, but all in all, I appreciate the type of place this is thus far.

For Whom the Bell Tolls is ******* amazing. That and Fuel are the only two Metallica songs I like.

I had a big metal phase in tenth grade...Metallica was probably my favorite band at the time.

...And Justice For All and Orion are two key parts of my metal playlist for cardio. Any time I listen to anything other than metal when I'm doing cardio, it just isn't the same.

"One" is one of the best songs Metallica put out. I've never been a fan of the song Fuel to be honest.

I find it hilarious that Metallica are embarrassed as a band that they released "....And Justice For All" because they think it's their worst album, when in fact it's not only the best they ever made, but also arguably the best metal album ever made.

Nothing else matters, one and enter sandman are all ******* sick. I live in London and everyone listens to grime and rap where I live, so it's rare I meet other Metallica fans

Puppets definitely changed my whole attitude toward the metal scene when it was released. It was the main reason that I became an 80s headbanger and opened the floodgates for Anthrax, Exodus, Testament, Overkill and Slayer. But Justice is just a masterpiece.
Every note is geometrically precise and meticulously assembled into musical perfection.

I loved Master of the Puppets, My Apocalypse, One but they were so overplayed that I can't listen to them anymore.

Best metal album ever is Paranoid, by the way. No doubt.

Even though it came out in 1970, Paranoid was SOOOO played in the 80s. I swear, I never wanted to hear Iron Man or War pigs again. It's so hard to make top 5 or even top 10 metal album lists. I keep second-guessing myself.

@geezhound kinda like Stairway to Heaven, we all know it's ******* great but it's overplayed.

Blizzard was definitely up there on my ranking. That's what I mean though!!! It's so hard to break down the top albums!!
