Master of Puppets!

Just had to put this album on. It's been too long.

But I think bands do write music that is much more colourful. It's just not as accessible or as popular as Metallica were/are. People who are always putting Metallica down are so wrong because so many people listen to them once and get hooked. That's good song writing for you there.
 
I have major beef with the sound of the album. It's not in your face, at all. When I put on, regardless of the volume, it lacks punch. That's just my opinion though.

I just wish it had the balls of a certain Slayer record released in the same year...

I know what you mean, it's not as aggressive as most other thrash albums, and that's probably why a lot of thrash fans lose interest in it. But the main thing I love about MoP is the songwriting, they are just all amazing compositions.
