Which Song Rocked Harder : A pair of Metallica B-sides

Two Metallica B-sides. Breadfan came to us from the B-side to Eye Of The Beholder off the masterful And Justice For All. I remember getting the cassette single (great idea those were!) and it having this song on the other side. Immediate favorite when I heard it.

Blitzkrieg is also a Metallica B-side and it is also one of my favorites. A little later on, and Metallica started to become despised in some thrash circles, I think it was because the music lacked the energy and intensity of these early works. I never jumped on the "sold out" bandwagon, but the music had certainly changed.

Let's take Breadfan and Blitzkrieg and throw them in the ring. Both had the skipping heart of thrash as their backdrop. Both capture an essence of "before they made it big" Metallica. Both rock. Which Song Rocked Harder?
