The albums till Metallica employed Normal tuning Load onwards they started using 1/2step (= 1 fret) down tuning, i.e. tuning to: Eb Bb Gb Db Ab Eb In Saint Anger they are tuned 3 frets down to C# ie: C# G# E B F# C#
Well, if you listen to a riff, U know they are playing the open string muted (you can make that out easily) Tahts it. U tune your guitar according to that. Like most of the Metallica riffs have open E string Palm muted. That is your starting point.
