    If you love Metallica you will love this version of Ride the Lightning. My record wasn’t warped and sounds great.

    One of my all time favorite 2nd albums by a band. The record literally lives up to its title... It sizzles with electricity and it’s a relentless ride indeed. Revisiting this on vinyl for the first time has been a trip.

    Bought this for my nephew for Christmas when I found out he was getting into old records. He loved it! I even popped on the earphones and listened to it on vinyl for the first time. No surprise that it sounded awesome!

    I’ve enjoyed this album for 30 years of my life but had yet to hear it on vinyl (cassette and CD only for me). The music jumps off the needle and is heard how it was meant to be.

    One of the must have metal albums. If you like Metallica you need to have this album in your collection. Vinyl always provides a better sound than digital download.

    My son got this for Christmas. He enjoys the old school retro way of listening to music. Swears up and down the quality is better on vinyl.
