You don’t need a greatest hits album from Metallica. In fact, I’d say you don’t want one.

That’s pretty much what I was trying to say, albeit much more concisely. 😉

I’m in total agreement with most of what people have said before. But in NZ at a store called sounds when you bought St Anger (and yes i know i’m an idiot for buying it!) you got essentially a “best of” type thing, 2 discs SAINT and ANGER.

SAINT  
nothing else matters  
no leaf clover  
welcome home (sanitarium)  
fade to black  
one  
the unforgiven  
until it sleeps

ANGER  
enter sandman  
seek&destroy  
creeping death  
master of puppets  
harvester of sorrow  
the memory remains  
fuel  
not the best compilation ever, but as close to a best of as I’ve ever seen.
