The roster was then filled out by lead guitarist Dave Mustaine and bassist Ron McGovney (soon to be replaced by virtuoso Cliff Burton).In the heady days of the '80s, they forged their way from being the supporting act at tiny club gigs to opening for and headlining stadium tours, with next to no support from radio. Their third album, Master of Puppets (1986), created the band's first notable commercial success, and was and is hailed as a metal masterpiece. Unfortunately, on their subsequent tour, Burton was killed in a bus accident. Choosing to continue on in spite of their grief, the band auditioned and hired Jason Newsted, an intense young musician who became the perennial "New Guy" and the butt of 14 long years of hazing, with the bass being almost non-existent in the mix of their next album, ...And Justice For All (1988), being seen as the first major instance. It was also with this album that the band first started getting accusations of "selling out" after they put out a music video for the song "One", something fans claimed they had promised in the past they'd never do.In The '90s, the band moved away from thrash metal (according to Hammett, they realized that the general consensus was that songs were "too fucking long", though the rise of grunge and alternative rock probably also had something to do with it), first coming out with their massively successful self-titled album Metallica (aka "The Black Album") in 1991, then the rock-, country- and blues-tinged alt-rock pair Load and ReLoad, respectively released in 1996 and 1997.Metallica were then mostly quiet for a while, and when they finally set about making a new album, they had a full-on breakdown, with a fed-up Newsted leaving the group (from a combination of his continued hazing treatment, Hetfield's refusal to allow him to become a full songwriting partner, and a neck injury that needed rest), Hetfield going into rehab for alcoholism, and the entire future of the band in doubt. St. Anger, the album forged in the midst of all thisnote The band's producer Bob Rock filled the spot of bassist for the recording, was released in 2003. It's disdained by most fans, though for some it's an interesting experiment hamstrung by its intentionally unpolished production and overly introspective lyrics. Luckily for the band, new bassist Robert Trujillo both helped them mellow out and encouraged them to mix up their set-list on a nightly basis, pulling out songs they hadn't played for the better part of 20 years.The band's next album, Death Magnetic, came in 2008, and was the most in-character effort they'd had in years in the sense of it being a return to their thrash roots. However, it was a casualty of the Loudness War, and whether it's any good depends entirely on who you ask. In 2011, they collaborated with Lou Reed on Lulu, which opened to mixed-at-best reviews from critics and was panned by just about every fan that had an opinion on it, although it received the unwavering support of David Bowie, who loved it and cited it as an influence on his final album, ★.In December 2011, to tie into their 30th anniversary mega-reunion shows, they released Beyond Magnetic, an EP consisting of four songs left over from the studio sessions for Death Magnetic. On November 30, 2012, they left Warner (Bros.) Records (where they'd been since being signed to subsidiary Elektra Records in 1984), with the rights to all their studio albums, master recordings and videos, and formed a new independent label, Blackened Recordings. Its first release, a month later, was Quebec Magnetic, a live DVD culled from two performances in Quebec City in 2009.In late 2016, the band released their 10th album, Hardwired... to Self-Destruct, which marked another clear return to their '80s thrash/speed metal roots. The effectiveness of the stylistic throwback at this stage in their career became a topic of debate, but it was a commercial success regardless. The album became Metallica's sixth to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, making them the second band in music history to have that many consecutive #1 debuts after Dave Matthews Band. Their 11th album, 72 Seasons, was released on April 14, 2023; it debuted at #1 in 20 different countries, but not America, being kept from the top of the chart only by Morgan Wallen's One Thing at a Time.Metallica is perhaps best known for their somewhat turbulent relationship with their fans, in part the result of their long career and their experimentation with musical styles. The fanbase tends to divide thusly: "hardcore" metalheads that stay away from anything after Justice, or after Master if they're not into prog-metal (Hetfield even mentioned in interviews that the band lost some especially vocal fans after the acoustic guitar intro on "Fade to Black" from Lightning); fans who got into the band with the Black Album and like their anthemic '90s style better; those who uncritically love everything the band releases; and some who seem to exist solely to antagonise the band and other fans.Further division among the fandom — in particular those who play guitar, bass or whatever — divide their material based on the band's line-up at any given time. Bass players tend to favour the Cliff Burton years, although Newsted has his fans as well, as does Trujillo (though even fans of Trujillo's work with other bands — mostly Ozzy or Suicidal Tendencies — split over whether his funk-influenced tone and style suit Metallica's material). Guitarists may debate whether Hammett's solos or Hetfield's riff-based rhythmic style are the true core of the band's sound. Others love to argue Hammett vs. Mustaine — still.If you really want to get an earful, round up three Metallica fans (bonus points for a token hater) and ask them if and when Metallica sold out. It was after Cliff died. It was when they slowed down the music. It was trying to follow the alternative music trend in the '90s. It was the advent of the gimmicky stuff like Garage, Inc. and S & M. It was trying too hard to get their old sound back after ReLoad. It was everything after Kill 'Em All. They never "sold out" at all, but got older and less angry and wanted to experiment in other styles, and besides, altering your artistic expression just to appease any fanbase, even your original one (thrash), is the very definition of "selling out." In short, there are likely as many possible answers as there are people who have heard of Metallica.Lars Ulrich's crusade against Napster also left a bad taste in the mouths of many, who wondered if he hadn't just shot his own band in the foot. Ulrich has never outright apologised for some of the things he said during this time (though he did mention he regretted the way he expressed some of his beliefs at the time), although the band has been much more Internet-friendly since then, playing nice with iTunes, putting up old shows online for free, and allowing recent concert-goers to download a copy of the show they attended.They also cottoned on with atypical shrewdness to the popularity of Guitar Hero and the potential that their guitar-driven songs had in the format. After licensing a few of their more popular tunes for the series, they went the whole hog by releasing their most recent album as downloadable content, and followed it up by co-developing Guitar Hero: Metallica, an entire game allowing players to perform as the band themselves. (The Metallica tracks in any given Guitar Hero or Rock Band game are generally amongst the hardest, because... Well, it's Metallica.)

Metallica (Music) / int_2ef005ab	comment	Vocal Evolution: Along with James having more melodic singing instead of just shrieking like in the early days, he certainly sounds different due to all the screaming (he even blew his voice recording "So What") and smoking. To put this in perspective — James' voice on Kill 'Em All was extremely high, and sounded basically nothing like James Hetfield, even when compared to Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets. Just five years later, he had already grown into a low-register baritone, which is basically the opposite to his high tenor vocals just years earlier.

Metallica (Music) / int_2f36d97	comment	Older Than They Look: In the first few years, James was skinny, baby-faced and had quite a bit of acne, basically making him look like a really tall fifteen year-old. Kirk, basically his entire life. Since he's always got a soft speaking voice, a young-looking face and a small build, he basically looked 10 years younger than the rest of the band at any given time. Hell, he looks the same these days as he did 20 years ago, only with grey hair. Lars counts to an extent. He's basically looked the same age their entire career, with only his weight and hairstyle changing.

Metallica (Music) / int_3126c34a	comment	Insufferable Genius: Dave Mustaine in a nutshell as far as his time in Metallica was concerned. He was an exceedingly talented guitarist whose ability was acknowledged by everyone. Unfortunately, he was also a godawful mean drunk with drug issues that were serious even then and a sober personality that was apparently not that much better. Lars, though not really in regards to his drumming. Say what you will about the man personally, but it's in large part his connections, business savvy and the fact that he is the one arranging most of the songs from whatever riffs and lyrics James makes that made Metallica something more than just a garage band.

There exists a fan remake of St. Anger on YouTube that attempts to correct many of the complaints people had with the official release. It has vastly improved production, partially streamlined songsnote some of the more notorious parts of the album, like the bridge in "Invisible Kid", were removed altogether, while some of the extended jams were shortened to give the songs more focus, and the notorious snare of the original is ditched in favor of more standard drum tuning/mixing. On the other hand, guitar solos are still absent, and a number of Narm-tastic lines like "Fran-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tok!" were kept in. Nevertheless, despite being essentially a cover album with no involvement from the band itself, a number of fans have agreed that it's probably better to just listen to this instead of the official album.

Flemming Rasmussen for Ride the Lightning (only engineered), Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice for All. Bob Rock on all albums from The Black Album to the Some Kind of Monster EP (even playing bass on St. Anger). Rick Rubin on Death Magnetic (whom Kerry King claims to have been stolen). The band has self-produced (or at least co-produced) nearly the entire discography with the exception of Kill Em' All and Death Magnetic.

Metallica (Music) / int_6298c177	type	Sequel Song
Metallica (Music) / int_6298c177	comment	Sequel Song: The so-called "Unforgiven Trilogy" consists of "The Unforgiven" from their 1991 self-titled album, "The Unforgiven II" from 1997's ReLoad, and "The Unforgiven III" from 2008's Death Magnetic. The original and "II" share a horn intro and some lyrics. "III" has neither, but it's still easy to see the connection. "Lux Ã†terna" from 72 Seasons can be viewed as something of a successor to "Hit the Lights" from Kill 'Em All. The song's name means "Eternal Light" in Latin, and both songs are short, punk-y affairs with a very similar structure and tempo. Also from 72 Seasons is "Sleepwalk My Life Away" to "Enter Sandman" from the self-titled, which shares much of the latter song's rhythm, melodies and lyrical themes.

Metallica (Music) / int_74149c93	comment	Epic Rocking: They frequently have songs over 5 minutes long, but some really fit the trope, such as "One" (7:26), "To Live Is to Die" (9:49), "The Outlaw Torn" (9:52), "...And Justice for All" (9:46), "Suicide & Redemption" (9:58), and the Mercyful Fate medley "Mercyful Fate" (11:11). Considering the 5-minute referential, Death Magnetic and ...And Justice For All (the album) are 100% made of this trope. Each has only one song below six minutes ("My Apocalypse" and "Dyers Eve" respectively), but they later wrote a new intro available for free download to "My Apocalypse", which makes it over six minutes. Not to mention every album since the self-titled one surpasses the 70 minute mark (Load clocks in at 78:59, which was the longest the manufacturing company could guarantee them without causing the CD to skip! And that's after shortening "The Outlaw Torn", whose uncut version lampshades with "Unencumbered by Manufacturing Restrictions Version"). They've written only 6 songs shorter than 4 minutes: "Motorbreath", "Holier Than Thou", "The Struggle Within", "Wasting My Hate" "Hardwired" and "Lux Ã†terna". The Lulu album has 3 songs over 10 minutes, with the longest being "Junior Dad", which is almost 20 minutes long! Hardwired...to Self-Destruct and St. Anger both make extensive use of this trope, as well. After the first track, not a single track on Hardwired is less than five minutes long, and all but three are longer than six, with "Halo on Fire", the longest, topping out at over eight. And of course, the album itself is seventy-seven and a half minutes long. The bonus disc isn't as consistent an employer of this trope, but the longest track, the Ronnie James Dio medley, is over nine minutes long, and several other songs top the six-minute mark. As for St. Anger, every song tops the five-minute long mark and six of them top seven ("All Within My Hands", the longest track, is nearly nine minutes long).

The first four feature Cliff Burton prominently, even though "To Live [...]" only has a poem written by him, spoken by James Hetfield. "Suicide & Redemption", on the Guitar Hero soundtrack, actually has two versions, with solos from Hammett and Hetfield respectively. Their albums in The '90s donâ€™t feature instrumentals, although â€œMy Friend of Miseryâ€� on the Black Album (with its prominent bass riff by Jason) was originally intended to be one. Load and Re-Load also feature album-closers with long jam sections (â€œThe Outlaw Tornâ€� and â€œFixxxerâ€�, respectively), which fulfill much the same purpose.

Metallica (Music) / int_97522514	comment	Heelâ€“Face Revolving Door: Dave Mustaine can't seem to remember whether or not James Hetfield is his enemy. Currently, they seem to be getting along quite well, if the Big Four shows at the Sonisphere Festival are any indication. For whatever reason, though, Dave still dumps on Ron McGovney, the original bassist. The other members neglect him in favor of Cliff sometimes, too (it's honestly hard not to), but Dave went as far as referring to the Ron-era band as a three-piece with him happening to be around them and in their band, but not really important at all. Ron disputes this, saying that he learned to play bass in a short time, and without his house and sometime managerial skills, the group would never have gotten off the ground.

(1986) and St. Anger's title track (2003). Lux Ã†terna contains the line "full speed or nothing", referencing Motorbreath from Kill 'em All, and the song is on the whole very structurally similar to Hit the Lights from the same album.

To the band's credit, they've been much better about embracing the Internet and new technology since then, but some downloaders are still bitter. Lars has joked that his obituary will have "Napster" in its first paragraph. Notably averted when they posted an ENTIRE ALBUM on the internet 12 days before it was fully released worldwide. They also allowed fans to stream Death Magnetic from their official web site prior to the album's release. When Hardwired...to Self-Destruct leaked early, the band responded by putting videos for every song on the album up on YouTube.

Metallica (Music) / int_a6254a7a	comment	Loudness War: Death Magnetic is particularly infamous for this. And yet the Guitar Hero song pack has the unaltered master tracks that avoid this, no seriously. The general rule for Death Magnetic is to buy the album, throw it out, and burn this version instead. Beyond Magnetic, being songs left over from the sessions for DM, has a rough mix that's very loud, but is more dynamic and less clipped than the original master of DM (though still quite clipped in comparison to most other albums, even in modern times). The remaster of DM is substantially more dynamic and substantially less clipped than Beyond, though. Death Magnetic was remastered in 2015/2016 (originally released as the Mastered for iTunes version, then the 24-bit masters for those were released on Metallica's site), and it's a substantial improvement. The new score is DR7, which isn't great, but is a hell of a lot better than the original's DR3, and more importantly, it avoids the original's clipping issues (it's still slightly clipped, but compared to most modern records it's not even noticeable). This is probably how the album was intended to sound in the first place. Hardwired...to Self-Destruct comes out to DR6, which isn't great, but is certainly a hell of a lot better than Death Magnetic. Radiohead and David Bowie's 2016 albums were louder than Metallica's, for whatever that's worth.

The album also has (from the Garage Days Re-Revisited EP) "Last Caress \ Green Hell", two unrelated Misfits songs. During the Load tour, a mash-up of older songs called "Kill / Ride Medley" was frequently used. Similarly, a medley of Justice songs was performed during the Black Album tour; a version of this can be found on Live Shit: Binge & Purge. The band recorded another medley of songs for a Ronnie James Dio tribute album, which they entitled "Ronnie Rising Medley". It's also available on the deluxe edition of Hardwired...to Self-Destruct. Though it wasn't officially called a medley, when they covered Black Sabbath's "Sabbra Cadabra", they also spliced part of "A National Acrobat" into it.

They replied in a more jokey manner. "Prince Charming" has a lyrical reference to the Voivod album Nothingface. Jason Newsted is known as a huge Voivod fan and even became an Ascended Fanboy when he later joined the band for awhile. The title "Leper Messiah" is possibly borrowed from a line in David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust". During the ending of "The Memory Remains", along with the "ladadada-dada", Marianne Faithfull also says a quote from The Misfits that certainly fits a forgotten star ("Say yes, or at least say hello"). On early pressings of Master of Puppets, they featured a parody of Content Warnings: Comedy buffs will note that this list contains six of George Carlin's Seven Dirty Words. Which one was excluded? "Tits", the one Carlin said "doesn't even belong on the list". Hardwired has the song "Murder One", named after Lemmy's amplifier, and filled with references to MotÃ¶rhead to honor the recently departed frontman. Also, "Spit Out the Bone" takes its title from GBH's "Passenger on the Menu".

Metallica (Music) / int_c772e7c5	comment	Rags to Riches: Metallica literally started out as a garage band formed by a bunch of teenage kids. They would go on to become the most successful heavy metal band of all time, and even 30 years after the founding of the band they can still pack arenas and every new album is guaranteed to go multi-platinum, be it Master of Puppets or St. Anger. Averted in the case of Lars Ulrich, whose father Torben Ulrich already was an established artist when the band was formed, and additionally had a successful tennis career behind him.

Load and ReLoad fall under this as well, incorporating more influences from Blues Rock, Alternative Rock, and even Country Music. Played with the lyrical content, though.

They also did a cover of "Ecstasy of Gold", one of the songs Ennio Morricone did for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, and usually open their concerts with the original piece. There's also a heavier version of "Stone Cold Crazy" by Queen, which they even played at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. It was one of the earliest metal songs, and numerous metal bands have played covers as a way of tribute. Their latest is a version of Nazareth's "Please Don't Judas Me" in Helping Hands... Generally speaking, if Metallica covers a song, it's going to be awesome. Even The Wizard of Oz music. And the reverse works too: You know you made it really big when one of your favourite bands covers one of your songs.

According to various sources (VH1 documentaries, books, interviews, etc.) Dave hated Ron so much he actually poured beer into his bass to the point it was unplayable, tore up his house and got his dog to get on his car to ruin the paint job. Dave only denies ordering the dog to jump on the car, not that the dog did it. At least within the band, averted with Cliff (who the fans also like) and Robert.

However, "The Four Horsemen" was originally called "The Mechanix", filled with double entendres about sex in an auto mechanic shop. It was released in the original form on Megadeth's debut album, Killing is My Business... And Business is Good!. Additionally, "Jump in the Fire", a song sung from Satan's perspective, was originally about teenage sexual frustration; this version can be heard on the No Life 'Til Leather demo. Notably, this one also had its origins with Dave Mustaine. Meanwhile, the only publicly released Metallica song that is clearly about sex is "Devil's Dance," which uses the image of Satan tempting followers as a metaphor for somebody soliciting sex.

Metallica (Music) / int_e18675e6	comment	Word Salad Lyrics: Sometimes they are just strings of cool-sounding phrases. James admitted the lyrics' crypticness aims for "anonymous but powerful", making sure they resonate with listeners. ("I'll put two powerful words put together, and sometime I won't know what they mean, but I'll apply them to my life somehow.") The line "No Life Til Leather" (which was both the title of their 1982 demo and the first line in "Hit The Lights") has no real meaning. The band, like most metal acts of the early-80's, just liked using the word "leather" in their lyrics due to its rough/cool sound. The phrase â€œsuffer untoâ€� crops up in a few songs (notably â€œHarvester of Sorrowâ€� and â€œMy Apocalypseâ€�), but is fundamentally meaningless. Even if it did mean something, it would likely be closer to â€œput up withâ€� than â€œsuffer fromâ€�, which kind of robs the lyrics of their impact. Itâ€™s probably best not to think about it too hard.

Metallica (Music) / int_e54482ee	comment	Keet: Those who knew Lars Ulrich when he was a teenager describe him as being a hyperactive young man who was extremely enthusiastic about heavy metal. Brian Slagel of Metal Blade Records recalls that whenever they would go to the specialty record stores in the early 1980's to buy imported NWOBHM albums, Lars would jump out of the car before it had even stopped moving because he was so anxious to get new metal albums to listen to. After Slagel had founded Metal Blade records, he planned on putting together a compilation album called Metal Massacre featuring local heavy metal bands. When Lars found out about this he got so excited that he begged Slagel to let him record a song for the album despite the fact that Lars wasn't even in a band at the time. This motivated Lars to call up James Hetfield and Lloyd Grant (after the two realised they were short two members, and could get James to play bass) to help him record a song for the album, and that's the story of how Lars' keet-ness resulted in the birth of Metallica. Cliff had shades of this. Aside from his stage antics, about half of the pictures with him seem to have him making some goofy face, was known to carry around a hammer to go nuts with, and was generally quite an odd guy.

Metallica (Music) / int_f06b07ff	type	Locked Out of the Loop
Metallica (Music) / int_f06b07ff	comment	Locked Out of the Loop: James, during the late 1990's. During the band's post-Black Album hiatus, Lars and Kirk had developed interests (art, drugs) that he wanted no part of (him taking up hunting also kept him physically away from both during off-hours). During the Load period, they had been the primary forces behind the band's "new image." In particular, James hated the cover art by Andres Serrano, saying in a Guitar World interview that "I'm not a big fan of the man and his perversions. There's art and then there's just sick motherfuckers, and he's one of those." Additionally, he felt that the focus on the band's image was overshadowing what he felt was some of their more innovative work (as he said in the same interview "'Bleeding Me' is, I think, some of my best lyrics of all time. And what are people talking about? Lars' fuzzy jacket.") He had more in common with Jason (both were into hot rods and classic guitars, among other things), but years of hazing had effectively scorched that bridge to a crisp. As a result, being isolated from the rest of the band, he developed the "Doctor No" personality that led to Jason's departure and almost led to the band's breakup.

Metallica (Music) / int_feaf12e8	comment	Survivor Guilt: It is thought that a great deal of James' angst in the post-Puppets albums stems from having survived the bus accident that took Cliff's life. In their Behind the Music special, Kirk revealed that earlier that evening, the band had gotten into a mild argument about the sleeping arrangements and had drawn cards to determine who would sleep where. Cliff drew the highest card and claimed Kirk's bunk, which, due to faulty mounting and poor reinforcement of the window, led to his being partially ejected from the bus and killed.

The song is arguably better for it, but don't let any Megadeth fans hear you say that... or Mustaine, for that matter. They then played it completely straight in their word-for-word Cover Version of the most profane British punk songs ever recorded, "So What?!", even though the song is a parody about two drunken idiots attempting to outdo each other.
