[[File: 13-06-09 RaR Newsted 13.jpg|thumb|upright=0.8|Jason Newsted (pictured in 2013) joined Metallica soon after Cliff Burton's death in 1986.]]
Burton's death left Metallica's future in doubt. The three remaining members decided Burton would want them to carry on, and with the Burton family's blessings, the band sought a replacement.<ref name="Timeline 6">{{cite web|title=Metallica timeline October 1986 – March 1987|work=MTV|url=http://www.mtv.com/onair/icon/metallica/timeline/?id=8|access-date=November 30, 2007|archive-date=April 11, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090411195927/http://www.mtv.com/onair/icon/metallica/timeline/?id=8|url-status=dead}}</ref> Roughly 40 people – including Hammett's childhood friend, [[Les Claypool]] of [[Primus (band)|Primus]]; [[Troy Gregory]] of [[Prong (band)|Prong]]; and [[Jason Newsted]], formerly of [[Flotsam and Jetsam (band)|Flotsam and Jetsam]] – auditioned for the band to fill Burton's spot. Newsted learned Metallica's entire setlist; after the audition, Metallica invited him to Tommy's Joynt in San Francisco. Hetfield, Ulrich and Hammett decided on Newsted as Burton's replacement; his first live performance with Metallica was at the Country Club in [[Reseda, California]]. The members initiated Newsted by tricking him into eating a ball of [[wasabi]].<ref name="Timeline 6"/> The band finished its tour in February 1987.

After Newsted joined Metallica, the band left their El Cerrito practice space – a suburban house formerly rented by sound engineer [[Mark Whitaker (music producer)|Mark Whitaker]] and dubbed "the Metalli-mansion" – and relocated to the adjacent cities of [[Berkeley, California|Berkeley]] and [[Albany, California|Albany]] before eventually settling in the Marin County city of [[San Rafael, California|San Rafael]], north of San Francisco.<ref>{{cite book|last=Doughton|first=K.J.|title=Metallica Unbound|publisher=[[Grand Central Publishing]]|date=August 1, 1993|isbn=978-0-446-39486-4}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=McIver|first=Joel|title=Justice for All: The Truth About Metallica|url=https://archive.org/details/justiceforalltru0000mciv_h8q4|url-access=registration|publisher=[[Omnibus Press]]|year=2004|isbn=978-1-84772-797-8|page=[https://archive.org/details/justiceforalltru0000mciv_h8q4/page/85 85]}}</ref> In March 1987, Hetfield again broke his wrist while skateboarding, forcing the band to cancel an appearance on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]''. In August 1987, an all-covers [[extended play]] (EP), titled ''[[The $5.98 E.P. - Garage Days Re-Revisited]]'', was released. The EP was recorded in an effort to use the band's newly constructed recording studio, test Newsted's talents, and to relieve grief and stress following the death of Burton. A video titled ''[[Cliff 'Em All]]'' commemorating Burton's three years in Metallica was released in 1987; the video included bass solos, home videos and pictures.<ref>{{cite web|title=Metallica timeline August&nbsp;21, 1987 – December 4, 1987|publisher=MTV|url=http://www.mtv.com/onair/icon/metallica/timeline/?id=9|access-date=December 1, 2007|archive-date=April 11, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090411200831/http://www.mtv.com/onair/icon/metallica/timeline/?id=9|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Metallica's first studio album since Burton's death, ''[[...And Justice for All (album)|...And Justice for All]]'', was recorded from January to May 1988 and released in September. The album was a commercial success, reaching number 6 on the ''Billboard''&nbsp;200, and was the band's first album to enter the top 10.<ref name="Charts">{{cite web|title=Metallica Chart Positions|website=Allmusic|url={{AllMusic|class=artist|id=metallica-mn0000446509|tab=awards|pure_url=yes}} |access-date=December 3, 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100923150541/http://www.cmc.dk/ |archive-date=September 23, 2010 }}</ref> The album was certified Platinum nine weeks after its release.<ref>{{Harvnb|Christe|2003|p=196}}</ref> There were complaints about the production, however; Steve Huey of AllMusic said Ulrich's drums were clicking more than thudding, and the guitars "buzz thinly".<ref>{{cite web|last=Huey|first=Steve|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=and-justice-for-all-mw0000196917|pure_url=yes}} |title=Metallica: ...And Justice for All |access-date=December 23, 2006 |website=Allmusic |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100923150541/http://www.cmc.dk/ |archive-date=September 23, 2010 }}</ref> The lack of audible bass in the album also drew widespread criticism.<ref>{{cite magazine | url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/metallicas-and-justice-for-all-album-what-happened-to-bass-715079/ | title=Metallica's 'And Justice for All': What Happened to the Bass? | magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] | date=August 25, 2018 }}</ref> To promote the album, Metallica embarked on a tour called [[Damaged Justice]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Damaged Justice World Tour|publisher=Metallica.com|url=http://www.metallicaworld.co.uk/metallica_tour_dates_justice_world.htm|access-date=December 9, 2007|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071210010111/http://www.metallicaworld.co.uk/metallica_tour_dates_justice_world.htm|archive-date=December 10, 2007}}</ref>

In 1989, Metallica received its first [[Grammy Award]] nomination for ''...And Justice for All'' in the new [[Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental|Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrument]] category. Metallica was the favorite to win, but the award was given to [[Jethro Tull (band)|Jethro Tull]] for the album ''[[Crest of a Knave]]''.<ref name="Rockin' on an Island"/> The award was controversial with fans and the press; Metallica was standing off-stage waiting to receive the award after performing the song "[[One (Metallica song)|One]]".

Following the release of ''...And Justice for All'', Metallica released its debut music video for the song "One", which the band performed in an abandoned warehouse. The footage was remixed with the film ''[[Johnny Got His Gun (film)|Johnny Got His Gun]]''. Rather than organize an ongoing licensing deal, Metallica purchased the rights to the film. The remixed video was submitted to MTV with an alternative, performance-only version that was held back in case MTV banned the remixed version. MTV accepted the remixed version; the video was viewers' first exposure to Metallica. In 1999, it was voted number 38 in MTV's "Top 100 Videos of All Time" countdown<ref>{{cite web|title=MTV: 100 Greatest Music Videos Ever Made|publisher=Rockonthenet.com|url=http://www.rockonthenet.com/archive/1999/mtv100.htm|access-date=December 8, 2007|archive-date=August 10, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160810083707/http://www.rockonthenet.com/archive/1999/mtv100.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> and was featured on the network's 25th-anniversary edition of ''ADD Video'', which showcased the most popular videos on MTV in the last 25 years.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/ontv/dyn/add_video/series.jhtml#/ontv/dyn/add_video/series.jhtml|title=A.D.D.
