Reviews

‘The tough, confronting, repetitive chords of Metallica, its more sentimental (and palling) middle section and its dancing, concluding pages with the, well, “folkish”, if you insist, rasping, amplified “Kit-fiddle” (eighthsized violin) all held the attention. The piece definitely warrants repeating.’ The Sun-Herald - Timeout (JohnCarmody), 24 August 1997
