Metallica 45 RPM 2 Lp Set Ride The Lightning 180 Gram Sealed OOP Mobile Fidelity.
Metallica Like You've Never Heard Them Before! Half-Speed Mastered from the Original Analog Tapes at Mobile Fidelity! Cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram virgin vinyl at RTI!
Packaged in a Premium Stoughton gatefold jacket with universal "Louder, Faster, Heavier" branded bellyband.
Metallica turned the metal world on its ear with their debut album, Kill 'Em All and then blew its mind with the follow-up, Ride The Lightning. The riffs and arrangements are more intricate, the lyrics are more intelligent and biting and James Hetfield's growl is meaner.
"Essential album + amazing sound = Decisions don't come any easier. These 180-gram 45rpm LPs take their place as the best-sounding classic metal albums around and will cause even the most (justifiably) jaded fan to forgive the band for its mainstream ways during the better part of the past 18 years. Yes, these pressings are that good. If a straight-up audiophile label released these, they would easily command $50/slab. While $30 isn't cheap, it's a downright steal here." – Playback, June 2008
"…even listeners that know these platters back-to-front are in for a shock not dissimilar to the surprise they received when the Bay Area group went soft in the 90s. Only, unlike the latter, this transformation is welcome. Instrumental detail, body, and presence are jaw-droppingly grand. Soundstage dimensions are super-quiet. And the previously inhibiting compression has been lifted." – Bob Gendron, The Absolute Sound, August 2008
