When i was eighteen i keep in mind my brother coming back property in California using a new cd from a band known as Metallica: kill them all. The sound had been also avant gardiste for me at the starting. I wan in to the standard deep purple, Kiss, Aerosmith rock.

Then i read the Metallica stories and interviews in French rock magazines. Metallica was  virtually completly unknows within the USA. But Metallica ahad a bit following in Europe, specially the scandinavian nations, Germany and France. The interviewers had been asking James hatefiels, kirk hamett, cliff burton and lars ulrich why would they not transform their music to possess additional airplay and sell additional cd's and be accepted by the general audiences?    

Then Metallica answered, that they will not sell out, they would rather die and cease playing music than play hair band music of dance music! I was rather impressed by the faithfulness of your  Metallica's band members  on playing interesting music and some thing that would make the music world progress and be innovative, than playing something which has already been completed to produce extra money!    
Is it true that Metallica is and was not for everybody. Most of the people usually do not undrstand exactly where rock and roll comes from. There is absolutely no dance groove, the common ppublic likes the singins melodies if not they are lost, and in  Metallica's music  there is certainly a lot of instrumental passages!    
Then Metallica gor the opening slot for  Ozzy osbourne  all more than the north American tour. I bear in mind mainly because i was in the Los Angeles auditorium listening them as the majority of the prople within the audience didn't know what to complete with them! Most of the people in the audience had been spellbound!
