Metallica – …And Justice for All (2015 Reissue Double-LP Remastered on 180g Vinyl)

…And Justice for All is the fourth studio album by Metallica, originally released on 7 September 1988. It was the first Metallica album to feature bassist Jason Newsted, following the death of their previous bassist Cliff Burton in 1986. The album was acclaimed by music critics for its depth and complexity.

Metallica recorded the album with producer Flemming Rasmussen over four months in early 1988 at One on One Recording Studios in Los Angeles. It features aggressive complexity, fast tempos, and few verse-chorus structures. It contains lyrical themes of political and legal injustices, such as governmental corruption, censorship, and war.

The cover, designed by Roger Gorman, and illustrated by Stephen Gorman, (based on a concept by James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich) depicts Lady Justice bound in ropes, being pulled by them to the point of breaking, with dollar bills piled upon her scales.
