How do we keep reviews authentic?

Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.

  • Made in USA or Germany?

    4 out of 5 stars
    Álvaro JohnsonOctober 31, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Hello! The front says 'Made in U.S.A', but the tag reads 'Manufactured in Germany'. So is this an American or German edition???

  • Sound Quality Shines

    5 out of 5 stars
    Paola SimmonsOctober 29, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I quite like the first album, apart from "Bleeding Me." The second one's not worth keeping if it weren't for the sound quality. It's just garbage. You got a problem with that? Fight me! But anyway, I'm here to talk about the sound, not my thoughts on the album... it sounds really good. I recently found a sealed copy. The cover and inner sleeves are top-notch. The sound is very clean with a strong backbone. There's plenty of bass, it's great for turning up loud, and it's not harsh at all. One of the best pressings out there. Very clean! Hope this helps. Try to find a '96 pressing.

  • Load/Reload Re-release Rocks

    5 out of 5 stars
    Wojciech ClarkOctober 19, 2025United States🇺🇸

    this re-release sounds as awesome as the cd did, if your a fan of the load/reload time go grab it \m/

  • Fantastic Bass Audio Quality

    4 out of 5 stars
    Judy MullerOctober 1, 2025United States🇺🇸

    The audio quality of this pressing is absolutely fantastic. You can really hear the bass track better. For me, it's pretty much flawless sound quality.

  • Dynamic Pressing, Clean and Powerful

    4 out of 5 stars
    Francisca MercierSeptember 26, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Fantastic pressing. Really dynamic. Super clean and quiet. The kick and bass are really moving some air down low and the attack is perfect. I can hear the mallet hitting the kick and the pick on the guitar strings. Great deal on this reissue...

Product description

This 2025 Reissue Remastered 2LP set is pressed on 180g vinyl.

Metallica's sixth studio album, Load, released on June 4, 1996, marks a significant evolution in the band's sound, venturing beyond their thrash metal roots into heavier and more melodic territories. This album, produced under Elektra Records, is a testament to Metallica's musical growth and experimentation. With a runtime of over three hours, the album is a comprehensive journey through the band's new musical direction, featuring 14 tracks that blend hard rock, heavy metal, and thrash metal elements.

Load opens with "Ain't My Bitch," setting the tone for the album's heavier sound, and continues with tracks like "2 x 4" and "The House Jack Built," showcasing the band's ability to craft intricate and powerful compositions. Standout tracks such as "Until It Sleeps," "Mama Said," and "King Nothing" highlight Metallica's knack for blending emotional depth with hard-hitting riffs and melodies. The album also includes a live performance from Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre, capturing the raw energy and intensity of Metallica's live shows.

The deluxe edition of Load is a treasure trove for fans, featuring 301 tracks, including 245 unreleased tracks, and weighing in at over ten pounds. This extensive collection offers a deep dive into the band's creative process and the making of the album. Metallica's lineup for Load includes James Hetfield on guitar and vocals, Lars Ulrich on drums, and Kirk Hammett on guitar, delivering a powerful and cohesive sound throughout the album.

Load sold 680,000 units in its first week, making it the biggest opening week for Metallica at the time. The album's success underscores its impact on the metal and rock genres, solidifying Metallica's status as pioneers and innovators. Whether you're a long-time fan or new to Metallica's music, Load offers a rich and robust listening experience that showcases the band's versatility and musical prowess.
