...And Justice for All is the fourth studio album by the American heavy metal band Metallica, released on September 7, 1988, by Elektra Records. It was Metallica's first full-length studio album to feature bassist Jason Newsted following the death of Cliff Burton in 1986. Burton received posthumous co-writing credit on "To Live Is to Die". Metallica recorded the album with producer Flemming Rasmussen over four months in early 1988 at One on One Recording Studios in Los Angeles. It features aggressive complexity, fast tempos, and few verse-chorus structures. The lyrics cover themes of political and legal injustices, government corruption, censorship, and war. The cover depicts Lady Justice bound in ropes with dollar bills from her scales. The album title is derived from the last four words of the American Pledge of Allegiance. To further promote ...And Justice for All, the band embarked on the Damaged Justice tour, and released three singles. "Harvester of Sorrow" reached the top 20 in the UK singles chart, and "One"—and the band's first music video—garnered significant airplay.
