I'm not a huge Metallica fan. I'd probably just take the Black album, drop Holier Than Thou, Through the Never, God That Failed and Struggle Within and add Fade to Black, One, The Call of Ktulu and Whiskey in the Jar.

Oh shit, I forgot their version of "Helpless". Replace "Phantom Lord" with "Helpless" on my list.

Going to make my compilation now!

OK, it's going to be tough to leave a lot of candidates off the list...

Seek and Destroy
Creeping Death
Ride the Lightning
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Battery
Master of Puppets
Leper Messiah
And Justice For All
The Frayed Ends of Sanity
Through the Never
Holier than Thou
King Nothing
Fuel

OK, that's a baker's dozen - so sue me!

(Having an extra, "bonus" track was the only way I'd put "Fuel" on there...)

Actually, it was a toss up between Fuel and The Memory Remains as that "bonus" track.
