Our take on the Metallica: Metallica (Black Album) (180g) Vinyl 2LP

Metallica's 1991 self-titled album, the one with "Enter Sandman" and "Nothing Else Matters," on a 180g black double LP from the band's own Blackened Recordings. This 2021 pressing is remastered and includes a printed lyric insert and a digital download. At $29.95 at TurntableLab.com as of November 8, 2026, it sits at the low end of what this pressing typically sells for.

About the Metallica: Metallica (Black Album) (180g) Vinyl 2LP

The original black album. Metallica's self-titled album from '91, and the one with all their biggest hits finally gets a proper sounding reissue, courtesy of their own Blackened Recordings imprint. Even if you didn't watch Headbanger's Ball, you should know "The Unforgiven," Nothing Else Matters," and "Wherever I May Roam," and of course, "Enter Sandman." Obviously this was the one with the cross-over appeal for Metallica and marked a noticeable change from the thrash metal sound of their previous work, to a less harsh, more melodic form of metal.
