Our take on the Metallica Reload Music Performance Cassette

Reload is Metallica's 1997 seventh studio album, reissued on cassette by Rhino. It is the second half of the Load sessions, built on mid-tempo hard rock with bluesy riffs and ballads rather than the thrash of the 1980s records. It suits fans who came to the band through Load and want a physical copy of that era, and it pairs naturally with Load on the shelf. On cassette it is a nostalgia object more than a hi-fi format; the album runs long and the tape splits it across two sides.

Questions and answers

What is on the Reload cassette?
It is Metallica's 1997 album Reload in full, including "Fuel" and "The Memory Remains." The reissue is released by Rhino.
Is Reload worth getting on cassette?
If you collect tapes or want a physical copy of the Load-era albums, it fits. For the best sound, vinyl or CD is the better pick.
How does Reload compare with Load?
Both come from the same 1996–97 sessions and share the mid-tempo hard rock sound. Reload leans on the singles "Fuel" and "The Memory Remains." It is not a return to the thrash of Master of Puppets.
Does the cassette include both sides of the album?
Yes. The full tracklist is split across the two sides of the tape, so you flip it partway through.
Is this the original 1997 cassette?
No. It is a later Rhino reissue of the album on cassette, not the original Elektra pressing.
