geez, i remember the uproar about this album when it came out in aussie...you could hear the chant sellout echoing through the streets...load of bollocks, its a great album front to back...admittedly, Sandman has been flogged to death and i'm almost sick of it, but still and all..ive replaced it twice...nice write up by the way

The chant of sellout gets thrown for any band who attempts to broaden their horizons. I do think Bob Rock tried to make Metallica a bit too commercial personally but that is different to calling them a sellout. It is a bandwagon term really and people should get out of the habit of using it but you know how fickle metal fans can be.
