In celebration of Metallica’s highly anticipated Load deluxe box set release, Loudwire Nights is excited to host a thrilling matchup between the two standout singles from Load—“Hero of the Day” and “Until It Sleeps.” Which track resonates more with you? Dive into the debate and let your voice be heard!

On one side, “Hero of the Day” showcases Metallica’s ability to embrace a somber and introspective atmosphere. This mid-tempo masterpiece maintains a dark emotional tone throughout, punctuated by intense jamming segments that emerge in its later moments. The track not only achieved a remarkable peak at No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Chart, but its accompanying music video stands out as one of the band’s more light-hearted productions, featuring Metallica alongside various beloved TV personalities.

On the other hand, “Until It Sleeps” takes a more avant-garde and haunting approach, perfectly complementing its unsettling themes. This track delivers a more aggressive energy, driven by the powerful riffs of Metallica’s guitarists and the commanding vocals of James Hetfield. Like its counterpart, “Until It Sleeps” also ascended to the top of the Mainstream Rock Chart, playing a crucial role in establishing the Load album as a significant commercial triumph.

As with all exciting battles in Chuck’s Fight Club, the charismatic host Chuck Armstrong will unveil this musical face-off on Monday. During the 8 PM segments of Tuesday and Wednesday’s Loudwire Nights shows, passionate arguments will be presented for both tracks while fans engage in voting. By Friday, the votes will be counted, and the song that garners the most support will be highlighted during the 8 PM hour of the Loudwire Nights radio show.
