Oh my god, there are a lot of people in the answers who don’t understand that this is a joke! (The joke is that the band’s standout work is actually their 2011 collaboration with Lou Reed).
For those no longer following Metallica, it should be noted that the albums cited by the music critic are considered by staunch fans to be some of the worst albums ever released by the band.
So much St Furyeighth studio album released in 2003 as lulua 2011 collaboration between the band and the legendary singersongwriter Lou Reedare works that, to put it mildly, did not go down very well with the public.
