(Happy Birthday to me, comes out a day after ).Yeah and Muthafucking worth it!. Bout damn time, been waiting for this and Reload to be announced. Hopefully Reload this year also.

No thanks. Load and Reload were bad enough as single albums. I don't need 97 versions of every song.

I remember watching that MotherLOAD contest on MTV, but didn't realize they did it in Europe, too. I really like the Load album, so am pretty excited about this release. Like the previous box sets, there's likely to be some pretty cool stuff in there, as well as a lot of fluff.

Load was the first Metallica album I bought.

Load was the first Metallica album I didn't buy. I was a fan of the band since Puppets came out, but Load was their first album where I didn't have any interest in most of the songs.

As far as the deluxe box sets, I got off that train after Justice. I think I paid $125-150 for each of the first four box sets, so $275 for this one? Christ! The only other set I might pick up is Garage Inc. Oh, and if the No Life Til' Leather box set ever comes out, I'll buy it in a heartbeat, but it doesn't look like it's happening any time soon.

Interested in some of the live stuff, but I have no interest in riffs, demos, and a million slightly different versions of the songs. So, as with the other boxes, I'll pass.

Load contains fan favorites including “Until It Sleeps,”“Hero of the Day,”“King Nothing,” and, for the first time ever, the original extended version of “The Outlaw Torn,” which was originally edited due to manufacturing limits.

I dunno, man...

I have these deluxe editions up to the black album. And I didn't hate "Load" and "ReLoad" as much as most folks.

But this just seems like too much stuff I'm never going to listen to. Demos hold little interest for me, and I'm not really enough of a fan of these songs to want to listen to live versions of them. Fourteen CDs worth of roughs, demos, alternate versions, and live tracks? Jesus... does anyone really want all of this stuff?

I'm 50/50 on this. The further they get past "Master of Puppets," the less essential these things feel. Now we're in their full "rock star" period after the success of the black album, and everything after that just doesn't feel special.

Kind of wish they had done a double boxed set of "Load" and "ReLoad" with a sampling of the best bonus content (live tracks, alternates, demos, etc).

I remember going to Circuit City and buying Load and Re-Load LPs back in the day. $20 IIRC. I won't be buying this deluxe but will check out some of the unreleased material streaming. I too don't hate these albums as much as most folks.

I don't get this The Outlaw Torn "never before released" comment. It's been released on The Memory Remains single.

That's a crapload of Load crap!

Kirk dropped his Load everywhere and made a mess on that table

Semen and blood everywhere!






Oh sorry, didn't mean to post that here. I was just working on an epitaph.
