Metallica's Load is an album that marked a shift in the band's sound. Released in 1996, it featured a more hard rock and blues rock sound than their earlier thrash metal albums. This alienated some fans, but the album was still commercially successful, reaching number one on the Billboard 200 chart.
Some of the album's best-known songs include "Until It Sleeps," "King Nothing," and "Hero of the Day." The album was also notable for its controversial artwork, which featured sexually suggestive imagery.
