What is Kill Em All?
1.
A metallica album from July 1983. A favorite to the thrash crowd and any one that has good taste in music.
The nu metal kids have no idea what Kill em all is.

Kill 'em All is Metallica's debut album. It came out in 1983 and it's tracklist is (in the following order) Hit the Lights, The Four Horsemen, Motorbreath, Jump in the Fire, (Anesthesia)-Pulling Teeth, Whiplash, Phantom Lord, No Remorse, Seek and Destroy, and Metal Militia. It also includes the covered songs, Am I Evil (originally done by Diamondhead) and Blitzkrieg (originally done by Blitzkrieg).
Kids who claim to be Metallica fans but think the Black Album is their debut album are ignorant because Kill 'em All is their first album.

Reworks demos from 1981's
Song list found in another prior UD definition. All songs are raw and not overproduced - the opposite of every Metallica album afterwards.
Originally released on Megaforce Records in May 1983.
Kill Em All is clearly the only Metallica album that doesn't suck and is still enjoyable in the present tense.
The black kids in my high school (late 1980s) thought Kill Em All had something to do with killing black people, which is totally stupid and false.
