Metallica - Ride The Lightning - Vinyl Record *
Metallica's groundbreaking Ride the Lightning, released one year after their debut, surpassed all expectations with its impressive musical growth and exploration of new, innovative directions that forever changed the heavy metal genre. This diverse album boasts a range of musical styles that showcase the band's unparalleled compositional skills and their ability to successfully experiment with new ideas. The lyrics are just as groundbreaking, delving into more personal and socially conscious themes, deviating from the typical metal posturing. From the epic and progressive to the tight and groove-driven, every track on Ride the Lightning is a masterpiece in its own right. The addition of subtle melodic elements and flourishes only adds depth and variety to the already incredible sound. Metallica's bold reinvention of their sound can be heard on tracks like the instrumental "The Call of Ktulu" and the hauntingly emotive "Fade to Black."
