Metallica is an American heavy metal band formed in 1981. Its members consist of James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Lars Ulrich,and Robert Trujillo. James and Lars 'were friends and got the idea of forming a band. Dave Mustaine was the original guitarist, before getting kicked out in 1983 for being a cronic drug abuser and violent alcoholic. They have released numerous singles such as "Fuel", "Enter Sandman", "Fade to Black", and "For Whom the Bell Tolls", They were influenced by many hard rock bands such as Aerosmith and Deep Purple. The latest album that they have released is "Death Magnetic." The band's second bassist was Cliff Burton who was known for using heavy distortion on his instruments. In 1986, Cliff's death resulted in a horrible tour bus accident during a Master of Puppets tour. Later, they recruited Jason Newsted as the bassist for ...And Justice For All, Metallica, Load, Reload, and S and M. Later, Jason left to join Ozzy Osbourne's band in Ozzfest. Robert Trujillo, a bassist who also played with Ozzy, became the new bassist. Some believe they helped pioneer (or even invented) the genre of "Thrash Metal".
