**💭 Thoughts:** Metallica’s self-titled 1991 album, also known as “The Black Album” is one of metal’s most iconic albums. I like this album, and all of the vocal and instrumentals are perfectly fine, however my personal preference is when Metallica plays at faster booms, like on *Ride the Lightning* or *Master of Puppets*. Not my favorite Metallica album, but definitely a classic. **🎶 Tracklist Review** 1.) Enter Sandman 🔵🥉 2.) Sad But True 🔵🥇 3.) Holier Than Thou 🟢 4.) The Unforgiven 🟢 5.) Wherever I May Roam 🔵🥈 6.)
