Metallica

What some people might not know is that Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich was supposed to be a Tennis star, however after his first Deep Purple concert he instantly knew that heavy metal was his passion. With a newspaper ad he found lead singer James Hetfield back in 1981, the date Metallica was born. In 1990 the band locked themselves in a studio in North Hollywood and came back nine months later with their self titled record METALLICA, better known as the BLACK ALBUM. The album sold over 22 million copies and with the release, their sound and also merchandise reached mainstream level (Thanks to singles such as 'Enter Sandman' & 'Nothing else matters').
