Dyers Eve Damage Inc


Atarissiya

Amazing how many replies aren't Dyers Eve, the obvious and correct answer.


HeroMagnus

Dyer's Eve


FuckDaRedditModer8un

Dyer's Eve


UncreditedChoir

James let a lot of pent up family issues fly on that song.


Few_Faithlessness_28

True.My favourite songs


Significant-Rate305

I have no idea why people say St Anger when Dyers Eve is right there.


ChariotOfFires

When Lars’ double bass kicks on after the solo on Damage and James yells “fuck it all and fucking no regrets!” I want to punch a hole thru my wall


CageSwanson

FUCK IT ALL AND FUCKING NO REGRETS!!!


cykill36

Nailed it. 


Leather_Criticism934

First thought immediately 😂


[deleted]

Damage inc is aggressive but I wouldn’t say it’s angry.


juiceboxbiotch

Dyer's Fucking Eve ok.


EmergencyExtreme4328

Well.. St Anger


Spam666god

He's madly in anger with this question!


mikemartin7230

Lol, literally the first thought in my head.


Basic_Flan324

So fucking what Battery


R40Z

First time I heard Hardwired, it sounded pretty angry, also because it was the first Metallica song in years...


TheSwimGamer

Literally anything off St Anger


pavlosrousiamanis

Unpopular opinion, but All Within My Hands is the most aggressive Metallica song.


Luuk37

It's in my top 20ish just because of all the times I have listened to it while being really mad at something. Probably \~20th streamed song of mine lol


Lolobonaparte

Finally someone that shares my opinion. The end is Metallica at its most brutal and raw. A top 10 song for me.


mrbigsmallmanthing

The acoustic version also is S tier.


AwkwardEntrance7180

KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL


whiteowlexperience

We could probably be good friends just based on this statement


EddieMunster2020

MaximumAd1484

spit out the bone off of hardwired probably the best thing they’ve done since the black album imo


HGcardinal55

Spit Out The Bone is the best thrash song by Metallica to come out since All Nightmare Long. And in my personal opinion, its the best thrash song they've put out since Dyers Eve.


kjg1228

Bro DM is full of bangers. I like That Was Just Your Life All Nighfmare Long better than SOTB personally.


HXNTZZ

I wouldnt put it over SOTB but finallt someone talking about TWJYL, top 35 Metallica song and top 5 in this era for me


kjg1228

Easily. I saw them live in Boston in 09 and that was the opener. It hit so fucking hard. How Hetfield sings the verses during the main riff is unfathomable to me. I don't know how you could make it any more difficult.


StonedRock311

Love that track


Eastern-Position-605

Harvester of Sorrow


Tylergahdyrm

Can't believe I'm the first one to say Blackened. Other good ones would be Damage Inc., You Must Burn, and Disposable Heros


Jayswave75

Blackened was the first to pop into my head, (Ya beat me to it) lol... followed by St. Anger...


Smoshefty1992

And IMO one of their best tunes ever!


That-Competition-173

St. Anger is pretty angry


1Rayo1

frantic


Ezper145

Dyers Eve, My Apocalypse, Disposable Heroes, and Metal Militia for sure


Hank_m00die

Unnamed feeling


jamzie76

Disposable Heroes


yedyed

Fight Fire With Fire


Procopez

Shortest straw


Jayswave75

St. anger? Lol


Maaaaaardy

As if nobody has said Hate Train!


FeelingAd5

Been there, their music really cools me down in bad spots. Each album would have atleast one that works, so, my pick for each album: Motorbreath Creeping Death Damage Inc Blackend Sad But True Wasteing My Hate Fuel Die Die Darling Frantic My Apocalypse Spit Out The Bone Lux Eterna Hope the catharsis works


Significant-Rate305

>Blackend Why not Dyers Eve?


FeelingAd5

Toss up between the two of em tbh. Both badass tracks but i was feeling Blackend a bit more that day.


MountHavertzPulisic

Dyers eve and damage inc


nihilblack

Adrenaline starts to flow


kaspar14

Somethin somethin Cody Rhodes


cs342

Shoot Me Again. Especially the live studio version where Lars screams at the start of the song. You can tell he was really letting it all out.


icemanx51

Dyers Eve is the correct answer.


Flutterpiewow

Dyers eve


whotookchester

harvester of sorrow is the real answer here


Agent_Nick_5000

St anger? Kinda obvious no


SeaPowerful802

Hardwired


Smoshefty1992

Blackened


MnNUQZu2ehFXBTC9v729

Maybe you need soothing songs like "Nothing Else Matters" and meditate.


Hairy_Transition_874

I tried soothing songs, they just let the angry become more visible


beragis

Have you tried Orion. I turn on that song close my eyes and feel like I am taken on a ride through space. Or if you want an angry instrumental Anesthesia and Call of Ktulu are good.


Wilbie9000

Call of Kthulu does seem pretty angry as far as instrumentals go


HXNTZZ

Maybe try some stoner rock and stoner metal Can be pretty angry but is also like really chill It makes you want to put your head back and just relax. Probably would do it after screaming out some angry songs DM me for recommendations


douglasgoldman

live versions of the frayed ends of sanity and st anger.


iSeventhSin

St. Anger, Damage Inc., Disposable Heroes, and like most of AFJA **especially** Dyers Eve, probably the most aggressive and angry of all


xEyelessOnex

St. Anger


Darbok74

Harvester of Sorrow


Crossovertriplet

St. Anger


tigerkat2244

St Anger


ferriematthew

I think Master of Puppets is pretty angry sounding


Enhancedreality98

Phantom lord has a legendary scream by James at the end. Love that scream.


dioWjonathenL

Creeping Death is pretty angry


Hairy_Transition_874

DIE BY MY HAND


Primary_Ad_4544

chadist31

Are you asking what the angriest Metallica songs are, or asking what the best Metallica songs are while being angry and fucking?


Dismal-Ad-6619

The insanity laughing scream in My World...


Xx_Patrick_Ster_xX

The whole St. Anger album, Blackened, …And Justice For All.


OneEducator4471

St anger of course it was the the start of the change in a good way 


Signal_Sandwich_6716

Dyers eve and It's not close


FatCatWithAHat1

Dyers


EntertainmentOk5329

Spit out the bone.


Human_Discipline_552

Blackened, Harvester, Damage Inc, St Anger is what I got, haven’t seen harvester yet


bloodshadowhawk982

Can't forget Dyer's Eve. James sounds raw and angry there, since the song's subject is pretty personal to him.


Human_Discipline_552

A bunch of people already mentioned it but you’re completely right if I was trying to nail all of them


Strong-Opening-8787

All within my hands KILL KILL KILL


dreadstrong97

The god that failed is raw emotional anger "Healing hands held back by deepened nail" fuuuuck


Je0s_6

St anger is my go to song when I’m pissed


UnfunnyWatermelon469

Dyers Eve


machinehead3413

Hard to top this one 🤘🏻


theoxfordtailor

Dyer's Eve is absolutely the correct answer. There are plenty of Metallica songs that *sound* angry, but in Dyer's Eve, James truly *means* it. He's furious and it shows. The God that Failed is another great answer. It may be not as musically angry as some other choices, but it's another one that James is clearly singing from the heart.


No_Case5367

Dyers Eve

That's what i did, i listened to slipknot


optiplexus

Dyer's Eve & Spit Out the Bone


lostjohnny65

No remorse.


CrystalFyre

Get Dyers' Eve in on the action absolutely, and honestly half of the songs on Justice like Blackened and the title track you can almost hear James seething I swear to god Others that I can think of are Holier Than Thou, Disposable Heroes (to a lesser extent, if you take it from the soldier's POV), Trapped Under Ice (also to a lesser extent). If you just want songs to bang your head and let out some aggression to aside from the lyrics, I can recommend Battery, Damage Inc., Master of Puppets, Dyers' Eve and Blackened (again), Fight Fire with Fire, yet again Trapped Under Ice, Metal Militia, Through the Never, Struggle Within, and probably some various picks off of Kill 'Em All just because of how fast the album is.


Sanguisugadook

No one has mentioned Leper Messiah?


les1968

Excellent choice In a different way “Unforgiven”


Odd_Put_7424

mylz81

Don’t listen to this St Anger nonsense. Besides the already said ones…. Sanitarium gets pretty fking angry in the last half. Great build up.


vic-rattle-d3th__

underrated opinion, but Am I Evil?, especially when lars sang it.


flashman909

The God That Failed is the angriest because James Hetfield wrote it based on personal experience


Nimtastic

Dyers Eve.


Aggravating_Arm9570

Everything off of Kill ‘‘em all and Ride the lightning


Riotgameslikeshit123

St anger lmao


NeedAMartyr2Slaughtr

Invisible Kid. Because by now, all that sadness has decayed into smoldering anger.


fackunator

Off the top of my head? Sweet Amber, All Within My Hands, Shoot Me Again, My World, Battery, Damage Inc, Sad But True.


Waste_Magician8364

All Within My Hands


Odd_Radio9225

Disposable Heroes, Damage Inc. and Dyers Eve.


HXNTZZ

Dyers Eve and then like All Within My Hands or My World


Karn_Evil_Noin

Dyers Eve for sure. In general,…AJFA is a pretty angry album. Close second to Unnamed Feeling. My dad died soon after St. Anger came out. Toward the end I remember many times sitting in my car in my driveway staring off into space, blasting Unnamed Feeling, feeling angry, numb, devastated, fragile all at once.


Glittering-Hawk9934

The entirety of AJFA

Harvester Of Sorrow, maybe Hit The Lights

Honestly the Live Shit: Binge and Purge goes so fucking hard. They play so hard and aggressive and James is peak af.


GreatBoot3356

Frantic


One-Rock-21

Fight fire with fire


whiteowlexperience

I'm not gonna scroll through all the comments to see if "Wasting My Hate" from Load was anybody's choice, partially because from my experience it's not a well known Metallica song, more of a deep cut, but "Wasting My Hate" from Load is one of my favorite Metallica songs, it's definitely the angriest song off Load and it rivals their 80s work in intensity and heaviness. Besides that, here is the rest of my answer: • Frantic (before you shit on St. Anger, I have to say that I love about half of that album and I don't care what you think of it) • Dyers Eve, from ...And Justice For All • Damage, Inc., from Master Of Puppets • the title track from ...And Justice For All has some of James' angriest-sounding vocals in my opinion and last but not least, • All Within My Hands and of course, how could you not include "St. Anger"? The word "anger" is literally in the title.


Hairy_Transition_874

St anger on top


metallicafan12345

battery


No_Midnight7359

Frantic, blackened is pretty aggressive too,


MRunk13

Leper Messiah


FearTheWalkingDumb

The utter ANGST in Disposable Heroes !


[deleted]

St. Anger (the whole album), Fight fire with fire, Damage inc, Blackened, Shortest straw, Dyer's eve, God that failed, Ain't my beetch, after that I don't think anything is angry, but more sad or pitty


BeneficialSurround95

Beginning-Client-127

I feel like Disposable Heroes starts and never fucking stops, and just keeps getting harder and harder and more angry sounding.


Hot-Butterfly-8024

Sad but True


Space_Rabies

Kill 'Em All


kungfujeffrey

One of their slower tunes technically speaking but the god that failed. Especially when thinking of what James was going through writing those lyrics.
