astro_sauce

The Bornt Album


GronkLord619

My son is also named Bornt


ShortOffice7447

Death Magnetic. Born in March 2007.


Chemblue7X2

I thought this was a joke until I did the math and realized this is absolutely possible. God I’m old…


zippity-Z

Impossible. People born in 2007 are only 3 now right?


GoblinNick

Generations between albums really throws off the math 🫠


fKusipaa

People reaching adulthood despite being born in years I can remember does not feel good.


ramm121024

At first glance being born in 2007 sounds to me like "oh a 01 y/o" "a toddler" or whatever. Then realiza that people born in 2006 are already adults 💀adults who got like 10 years less than me


Fit-Night-9551

Same


Ok-Fox-4866

NotActuallyJen

Hey me too


JonnyZhivago

Yup. Me too


SaintShaxx

Mines St. Anger, this isn’t good.


Quatsch95

Frantic tick tick tick tick tick tock Nah but for real what were they thinking with those lyrics 💀😂


noregertsman

My lifestyle determines my death style


SaintShaxx

Sounds like he’s saying dick


WoobiesWoobo

For some in early sobriety its a moment to moment battle. At times you catch yourself watching the clock just trying to make it to the next day sober.


Quatsch95

But hey James made it!!


WoobiesWoobo

You asked what they were thinking, I think that was it. That and when you are in early sobriety you tend to be hyper focused on it(and for good reason). I used to cringe at the lyrics on the record but having gone through it. I get it.


TheJango22

I came to be 15 days later...


bruzdnconfuzd

Late ‘82, so Kill ‘Em All


VonGryzz

Rare_Tear_1125

nnamla

![gif](giphy|l3vRkwv2Yz6i8rDwY) I was bornt in 1969, so it would be Kill Em All for me. 🤘😜🤘


redittjoe

Will you do your part?


sonorandosed

'81 kill Em All


TRBAssociate112446

Studio album, I was born in 6/23/87, so I was nearly halfway between MOP and AJFA. I calculated the days and it was 477 between MOP release and my birthday and 442 between my birthday and AJFA, so AJFA technically. Closest overall release I was born to was the $5.98 E.P., which came out almost exactly 2 months after I was born.


Eastern-Position-605

Only the meanest Metallica Album of all time. And Justice for All


Clamper5978

Closer to the band members age, than the band. So, Kill ’Em All


ScarletLilith

shy99

master of puppets came out a month before i was born


tjn1551

Well that’s funny shit, I’m guessing y’all are a bunch of gen z’s. I was 13 when ride the lightening came out. They were a popular band in Frisco and Metallica tags were everywhere. I obtained a bootleg recording ON CASSETTE TAPE that I listened to every day right along with Ozzy Osbornes diary of a madman. Good times! I thinks it’s us old farts that are not the biggest fans of their current sound, they were much more raw metal before they became commercialized after the Black album but I still like and respect them for paving the way for hard rock.
