Yep agreed. I think it's fair to call the black album a successful and good album for what they were trying to do, which was walk back the progressive metal thing and go for punchy simpler music. Enter Sandman and Nothing Else Matters are basically pop classics now, which in the case of Sandman is really something as it's undoubtedly a metal or heavy track.

Otherwise yea, Justice is awesome, and my personal favourite, however much Master might be objectively better or more consistent. Something people forget about Justice, but which always resonated when I first gave it a listen, is the progressive themes.

First four tracks: Blackened, And Justice For All, Eye of the Beholder, One, which are thematically Environmentalism, Corruption, "Manufactured Consent" (free thinking), War.
