I was a whopping 6 months old when this came out so clearly don't remember it.
I was probably 5 or 6 when I first heard it. Hated the title track right up until I was 14 and started doing drum lessons and my teacher showed me it as an 'easy' metal song to play on drums.My blog and a spot to buy DIY valve amp & effect pedal PCBS www.aurora-audio.co.uk

Thankfully not a busy evening at the pizza joint.

It was the first song I ever wrote lyrics to, and I’ve loved it ever since.
Don't expect much, it's not like I'm a Rocket Surgeon...

Truthfully I've always been the outlier who thinks RtL is a far superior album. Miles ahead. I honestly will never get considering this album their masterpiece over RtL. I've tried to wrap my head around it forever and just don't see it. My ranking is honestly.
1) RtL
2) AJFA
3) MoP
And it's not some sort of "THE EARLIER ONES ARE TRVER AND AUTOMATICALLY BETTER" type thing. I'm also pretty adamant that South of Heaven is a better album than Reign in Blood. Also very vocal about how fucked up it is that some people think Powerslave is Iron Maiden's best album. Putting it ahead of PoM or Seventh Son is insane.
That said, "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" is one of the top 5 songs Metallica have ever done.
*I also think Peace Sells is a better album than Rust in Peace
