Black Album Redux: Metallica/Bryan Adams Mash-Up (http://www.annalsofameri)
Metallica's Black Album was never good. It just took several hundred listens for me to accept such a harsh reality as a devout tween metalhead.

The Black Album would have been more tolerable though had it sounded like this Metallica/Bryan Adams mash-up by Wax Audio. "Enter Sandman" meets "Run To You." — By William Baume at 6:42 AM Fri
