Metallica is an American heavy metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1981 by drummer Lars Ulrich and guitarist/vocalist James Hetfield. As pioneers of thrash metal alongside Megadeth and Anthrax, they popularized complex speed and aggression before evolving into anthemic hard rock. Their discography ranges from the intricate compositions of *Master of Puppets* to the era-defining commercial saturation of their self-titled "Black Album." Globally, they rank among the best-selling music artists in history, selling over 150 million records. Their enduring legacy encompasses high-profile industry controversies regarding digital rights and their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2017.
