It’s ugly but leaves you a lasting impression.
Metallica best covers best to worse:
  • Metallica
  • And Justice
  • Ride
  • Puppets
  • Kill ‘em
  • St. Anger
  • Death Magnetic
  • 72 Seasons
  • Load
  • Reload
  • Hardwired
 
Damn that yellow is ugly. :facepalm:
Metallica and album covers were never a good combination since the 90´s.

Only Ride, Puppets and Justice are good.

Even Ride just has a good colour scheme, the idea is a bit shit, an electric chair in the sky:lol:


EDIT: to be fair, Black is good in it's own way too

This is an example of modern pure thrash metal.

On the other hand, as much as I miss a song of this style in their later albums - Metallica changed their sound in the 90's and I like that now. Maybe that's why they are the most successful thrash band. I'm not a fan of the pure thrash metal.

I only like Ride cover. The yellow could be a great colour for an album cover (Powerslave!). IMO the cover should have been a light falling down on a dark valley (yellow cover again, the upper half) or something related to... ''Seasons''(!).
