Without question... my absolute FAV band. They have powerful lyrics... cutting edge guitar riffs and a KICK ASS live show. All this combined make them an unbeatable act in my opinion. Their Albums to date in order have been: Kill 'Em All, Ride The Lighting, Master Of Puppets, ...And Justice For All, Metallica (better known as the black album), Load, Reload, Garage Inc. They have a box set called "Live Shit: Binge And Purge" which includes 2 concerts on video, a full colour book of pics, a stencil for the "Scary Dude" a concert on CD or Cassette, and an "snake pit" pass.

This is James Hetfield... probably the biggest influence on my life to date.

This is the band today... L-R: James Hetfield (singer and rhythm guitar), Lars Ulrich (drums), Kirk Hamett (lead guitar), and Jason Newsted (bass and background vocals)

This is Cliff Burton. He was the former Bass player of Metallica before a tragic tour bus accident took him from us. In my opinion he is one of the best bass players to ever pick up the instrument. He was gifted and made the bass sound like no other man I have ever heard. His last album made with the band was Master Of Puppets. Hope you are still rockin wherever you are Cliffy!!
