Some other Metallica is good and some is easy. It all depends on your style. So what you can do is take your favorite band and look up a few tabs for them and start learning one, it's not hard.

try "the end" by roadrunner united or angels dont kill by children of bodom. I cant remember if angels dont kill has double picking in it but if your gonna play metal, you'll need to know how to double pick.

I learnt double picking by sorta strumming on the same bass string slowly and i just built up speed and now i can play along with dragonforce stuff. whee

All of them! lol.
seriouselly though, Metallica is a good band to go with if you're a beginner because the bass lines are so simple, though the old bass player did have alot of potential (im havin a brain faurt right now and i can't remember his name. damnit remember!!! stressed ) and dragonforce is cool, but the're bass player sucks it big time! he's not even really in the band.

as far as beginning metal goes, Metallica's Seek and Destroy is a fun one to play. once you get really good, try playing Yngve's Arpeggios From Hell. your fingers will burn.

Most of Metallica's bass lines from Kill 'Em All are fun to play and are easy enough for beginners to learn, nothing too challenging.
