Heros could have easily been cut to 6 minutes, but I suspect the band were really giving the middle finger to the established "3 minute" song thing with all those extra parts. I bet Metallica knew they were unnecessary, but they are were thinking "we can get away with this, so let's push it" The outro I really like because it has some interesting harmonies while the melody sounds like it's descending to hell. The solo is also one of Kirk's best.

It's also a divisive album among guitar players I knew. Some really hated the tone of the guitars and called it sludge. Others like me, made me really interested in Mesa/Boogie amps.
 
I can’t say it’s the best song, just looking at the list I’m reminded how great that album is.

I voted Disposable Heroes as a personal favorite. It’s stripped down compared to other tunes on the album, but that’s probably what makes it stand out to me. Great rhythm and the “born for dying” peak is epic.
