THE REVIEW
But how can you like Metallica? They are the most sold, repetitive, and non-technical metalheads ever seen!
Back to the album itself, it's not bad: "Blackened", "And Justice For All", "One" and "Harvester of Sorrow" are, incredibly enough, interesting and quite original pieces although the production isn't the best.
The impression is of a mediocre band trying, perhaps successfully, to produce a better and more original album than their previous ones, among which is the dreadful "Master of Puppets". It's the best Metallica album and stands out from the rest of their trash like a beacon in the dark, but it trembles in comparison with albums by Iron Maiden or Judas Priest.
Metallica, you should have retired after this album!

Like a thunderbolt from the clear blue sky, like a Ferrari racing at 280km through the city center,...“And justice for all” arrives and devastates the world!
Perhaps the last, true, magnificent, unforgettable masterpiece of Metallica.

It is impeccable from a musical standpoint, played to perfection.
A good album to get closer to the Metallica sound, but here’s a tip: 'Kill ‘Em All', 'Ride The Lightning', 'Master of Puppets', THOSE ARE ALBUMS THAT REALLY KICK ASS!!!!!

"...And Justice For All is the band’s most technical and musically complex CD and is certainly among the most difficult to listen to."
"'One' is undoubtedly among Hetfield & Co.’s best songs, starting as a ballad and building to an immortal final part."
By Frenk
‘...And Justice For All’ represents, for many, the pinnacle of the band; it is still a historical thrash album.
The clean riff in ‘One’ is one of those reflective ones, Hetfield at his best.
By Thrash_MTL6
"...And Justice For All is indispensable both for die-hard fans and for anyone intending to hear what Metallica managed to produce."
"The famous 'One' is a true masterpiece capable of delivering intense emotions, with a social and musical vortex of contrasts."
