Probably a little premature to post this but made a start on Mick Wall’s Metallica biog last night and am quite enjoying it. Worth saying that I’ve only a rudimentary knowledge of Metallica, which extends to their albums. I was always a Slayer guy but mostly I skipped over the Thrash scene when an older guy on the street made me a copy of Napalm Death’s debut – “Forget that Iron Maiden shit… listen to this!” No going back after that. 25 years later I find myself listening to Kill ‘Em All this morning and it’s not bad at all I must say. I still prefer Show No Mercy if we’re comparing album for album – Slayer, even in this early incarnation have a more powerful Wagnerian sweep to their songs, but the Metallica album has a bite I wasn’t quite expecting…

From one of my favourite concert DVDs, it's hard to believe that Floor was only in the band for a few months at this point and had still not recorded an album with Nightwish. Of course, she is so much better now and brings her own personality to the vocals.
