Metallica's Reload gets the remastered expanded treatment on three CDs, pairing the 1997 album with two further discs of demos, rough mixes and live recordings from the era.
Reload grew out of the same marathon sessions as Load, with Bob Rock again producing, and it arrived about a year and a half after its sibling. The band were still pushing away from thrash toward bluesier, groove-heavy hard rock, and critics argued about it loudly at the time. Heard now, it sounds like a band enjoying the freedom to stretch, and the extra discs show how those songs took shape on the way to the finished album.
Fuel kicks the door in, a nitro-fuelled opener that became a staple of the live show. The Memory Remains brings in Marianne Faithfull, whose cracked, haunting refrain turns a hard rock single into something eerie. The Unforgiven II revisits the ballad of the Black Album with darker shading, and the closing epic Fixxxer winds slowly through more than eight minutes of heavy, brooding riffing. James Hetfield's vocals are rougher and more soulful than on earlier albums, and Kirk Hammett's wah-soaked leads lean into the blues.
For fans who have always thought this era deserved a second look, this set makes the case with plenty of evidence.
Turn it up and decide for yourself.
