Metallica – Ride The Lightning LP

Ride The Lightning is the second studio album by American thrash metal band Metallica, originally released in 1984.

The album marked a major step forward from the raw aggression of Kill ’Em All, adding more complex song structures, darker atmosphere, stronger dynamics and greater melodic development while keeping the speed and intensity of early thrash metal. It includes tracks such as Fight Fire With Fire, Ride The Lightning, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Fade To Black, Trapped Under Ice, Escape, Creeping Death and The Call Of Ktulu.

This LP vinyl remastered edition was released by Vertigo on 2 June 2016. The remastered vinyl format gives one of Metallica’s essential early albums a strong physical edition, preserving the speed, weight, guitar attack and dark atmosphere that made Ride The Lightning a landmark in thrash metal.
