Kurt Hammett has never seemed to me, a very good soloist. It all seems lifeless to me.
The cleaner soloing is good, and the melodic lead playing during the softer section in Master of Puppets is phenomenal.

Which one? There are a few. |
The slow one straight after when the chorus fades "Master....master...master..." then it starts up. Love it. |
Yeah, that's the one I said, too. It's James' solo.

I really like the solo in Master of Puppets (the song), as well as Orion (one of my all-time favourite songs). Bet you can't guess my favourite Metallica album too!

Yeah, I used to not think of much of Hetfield....but as time went on I now think that he is a better guitarist/musician than Kirk. In fact, I like Kirk but I now think he's quite over rated.

Hammett is one of the most overrated guitarists in rock/metal. Hetfield is an excellent rhythm guitarist and his contribution to songwriting too is far more substantial than Hammett's. |
Yes, I've quite warmed to Hetfield. I think he is not only a good guitarist but musician, much better than Hammett. I think his rhythm guitar work is a major part of the bands success. Oh, and if anyone has the guitar hero version of DM (far superior quality) you can hear Suicide & Redemption with a Kirk/James solos. James' is better!
