Free Man
Having suffered the No Praying for the Dying embarrassment especially compared with Sabbath's TYR, Painkiller, Rust in Peace, Iced Earth, Cowboys from Hell, fucking Empire from Queensrÿche (everybody was talking about it, particularly comparing it to Maiden), Seasons in the Abyss, Motörhead's 1916, all great albums, then came this one, in the heart of the summer 1991 and put the final nail in the coffin. Of course, I couldn't imagine that it would take me a 10 good years to take a full almost ecstatic satisfaction from a Maiden release: 29 May 2000.
I hated this album that everybody was talking about. It took me years to come in terms with it. Now it's my best Metallica album. I like the cover too.
