      Everyone likes to point to one year that was Metallica's prime but in my opinion it was a span of 2 albums: Justice through end of Black. They were at their peak in the studio as well as out of the studio playing live. Every show since Justice has been tighter and tighter which I think peaked around 93ish-94. So you basically have from 88-94 as their peak.....in my opinion of course. That's just how I rated it.

MetallicA is still a huge inspiration for me like 25 years later.

      He’s actually sounding incredible right now. I’d argue that he got a good chunk of his power and growl back around Hardwired. And I’ve heard him during the pandemic and he’s sounding even better with the time off. So I’m hoping their new album is a complete return to the early 90’s Hetfield. Of course we all age and the vocals deepen but that’s not a bad thing for James’ style...as long as the bark is there.

      nowadays he find a way to get a good voice without problems, tha's why he's so comfortable with hardwired songs .
