TuneLit has not measured this record. The tuning comes from community sources, at concert pitch unless they say otherwise.

Every song, from the title track and Lux Æterna to the 11-minute Inamorata, is transcribed in E Standard, making it the first all-E Metallica album since ...And Justice for All. Live, the band plays these songs in E♭ like the rest of the set.
