With Load, Metallica takes a dramatic left turn with their music, continuing in the direction suggested by Metallica, their previous album. The songs on Load have groove; they're slower, with far fewer of the lightning-fast riffs that have been Metallica's trademark since their inception. While songs like "Ain't My Bitch" and "Wasting My Hate" are up-tempo and full of the vitriol one would expect from the quintessential heavy metal band, "2 X 4" is hard rock with a blues beat, "Hero of the Day" sounds positively mainstream, and "Mama Said" is an actual, honest-to-god ballad. While some diehard fans may find this mix unappealing, there's plenty to like about this album, including its laid-back, rhythmic orientation, and James Hetfield's characteristic growl tempered by his growing maturity as a vocalist. -- Genevieve Williams
"So here it is....I've had a lot of people over the years, on various websites I've wrote for ask me to go in and just tear this album to pieces. When it comes to writing negative album reviews that make others laugh, I get this one requested a lot, so I'm finally going to do it. I've ripped Bowie's Let's Dance, and the Stones' Some Girls, so it's only fair I rip the most hated sell out album by a Heavy Metal album.
Metallica call it what you want but I honestly don't think they sold out at this"
"Tällä listalla on lähes kaikki Metallican levyt, koska Metallica on Jumala. Loadia tuli kuunneltua joskus junnuna aika paljon, mutta nykyään en arvosta tätä levyä. Metallican parhaat levyt ovat 80-luvulta. Niissä oli vielä asennetta. Tässä on vain neljä kyllästynyttä jätkää tekemässä rahaa, koska musiikki on bisnestä ja sillä ei ole mitään taiteellista merkitystä. Muutama ihan hyvä biisi, mutta voi haukotus, kuinka paskaa tämä kokonaisuutena oli."
