That was easy.
I asked myself, "Self, what is Spineshank?" I went to the Youtubes and found these:

The first video made me wonder, where have I heard this before, angry young boys trying to sound tough? Then I heard the second video and thought, "Aha! This is a louder version of Linkin Park, which also sucks."
To answer your question, the entirety of Metallica's Ride the Lightning is better than at least these two pieces of crap by Spineshank. And yes, that includes the song Escape, by far the worst song on RtL.
Jeez, count the number of times the word "I" is used in both of these Spineshank songs - that's navel-gazing crap, that's not metal. Where are the themes of war, death, pestilence and horror that makes metal, metal?

That being said, anything Metallica made after the black album is crap, and their best stuff ended at ..And Justice for All, which still had some residual Cliff Burton influence on it.
