Ride the Lightning gave Cliff a platform to shine as a songwriter and a player, said Metal Mania fanzine founder and KUSF Ramgate Radio DJ Ron Quintana. He could do it all. He gave Metallica many more options than just playing fast. Ride the Lightning peaked at No. 100 on the Billboard album chart, and even without a music video or radio airplay, the band grew rapidly and organically. Some old-school fans felt betrayed by melodic songs like Escape and For Whom the Bell Tolls, but many more open-minded listeners applauded the diversity and new listeners who didnt follow thrash were drawn to Fade to Black. Incredibly ambitious for a one-year-later sophomore effort, Ride the Lightning finds Metallica aggressively expanding their compositional technique and range of expression. Every track tries something new, and every musical experiment succeeds mightily. The lyrics push into new territory as well - more personal, more socially conscious, less metal posturing. But the true heart of Ride the Lightning lies in its rich musical imagination. Ride the Lightning, the thrash metal bands second studio LP, is the point where they started to develop the sound they would become famous for. While retaining the fast-paced, hardcore punk-inspired tempos from Kill Em All, the band began incorporating different instruments, adding more detailed harmony sections, and writing more complex songs and arrangments. This is also the last Metallica album to feature songwriting contributions from Dave Mustaine, who would later form Megadeth. Ride the Lightning Q&A
