After …And Justice for All, Metallica decided that a simplification and streamlining of their sound was in order. While the assessment made sense from a musical standpoint, it also presented an opportunity to commercialize their music, and Metallica accomplishes both goals. The best songs are more melodic and immediate, the crushing, stripped-down grooves of “Enter Sandman,” “Sad But True,” and “Wherever I May Roam” sticking to traditional structures, while the crisp, professional production by Bob Rock adds to their accessibility. “The Unforgiven” and “Nothing Else Matters” avoid the slash-and-burn guitar riffs that had always punctuated the band’s ballads. Metallica is a good, but not quite great, album, one whose best moments deservedly captured the heavy metal crown, but whose approach also foreshadowed a creative decline. ~ Steve Huey
