...And Justice for All (1988) (Music)	comment	â€¦And Justice for All is the fourth album by Thrash Metal band Metallica, released on September 7, 1988, by Elektra Records. It is their first full-length to feature bassist Jason Newsted, who passed an audition held after the death of Cliff Burton. Following the band's breakthrough with 1986's Master of Puppets, this album gravitated Metallica further into the mainstream by being their first top-ten album on the Billboard 200. Included in this album is "One", which spawned the band's first music video, which used clips from the film adaptation of the book Johnny Got His Gun. Cliff Burton receives a Posthumous Credit for the mostly instrumental "To Live Is to Die", which was based on unused bass lines by him and features a brief spoken word section reading a passage found in his personal notebook.Musically, this album is known for having more Progressive Metal leanings than usual and, more infamously, having its bass nearly inaudible. The near-absence of bass was a deliberate choice by James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, but the explanation for this has not been consistent. In 2009, Hetfield said it was because the bass followed too closely to his rhythm guitar. According to Hetfield and Ulrich, in 2019, it was because their hearing was shot from heavy touring, and they did not turn down the bass so much as they had everything else turned up.This album has no connection to the 1979 film ...And Justice for All, aside from lifting its title from the United States Pledge of Allegiance.

...And Justice for All (1988) (Music) / int_ac4ac8e5	comment	Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Though the album was recorded with the Compact Disc format in mind, the band still gave a nod to the lingering visibility of the vinyl record. Fitting the album's name and its Greco-Roman cover art, each side of the double-LP release is labeled with Roman numerals (i.e. I, II, III, and IV) instead of traditional letters or numbers. The cassette release, likewise, labels its sides "I" and "II" on the inlay (though the tape shell uses the standard "1" and "2").

...And Justice for All (1988) (Music) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: "One" is loosely based on the anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun, about a soldier in World War I trapped in a living Hell after being blown up by a land mine, and the music video features footage from the book's film adaptation. Metallica actually bought the rights to the movie in order to continue distributing the video without paying royalty fees, which had the unintended side effect of removing the film from print until 2008 because the band forgot that they still owned it.

...And Justice for All (1988) (Music) / int_f1d6144a	comment	War Is Hell: "One" is adapted from the Dalton Trumbo novel Johnny Got His Gun. Accordingly, the song reflects the leftist writer's anti-war beliefs, depicting war as a parasitic practice that only causes agony to those who actually have to fire the guns, as depicted through the plight of a hospitalized World War I soldier whose limbs and face were blown off by a landmine.
