Ride The Lightning
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Metallica's second album became the template for thrash metal. "Ride The Lightning" features definitive versions of "For Whom The Bell Tolls," "Fade To Black," and the title track—songs that became cornerstones of the genre. Kirk Hammett's precise lead work, Cliff Burton's melodic bass playing, and the rhythm section's tight ferocity created a blueprint countless bands have followed. This Japan pressing captures the album's raw energy and clarity. One of metal's genuinely important records, and this particular copy is valued among collectors.
