METALLICA

Metallica were easily the best, most influential heavy metal band of the '80s and '90s. 

Responsible for bringing the genre back to earth, the bandmates looked and talked like 

they were from the street, shunning the usual rock star games of metal musicians during 

the mid-'80s pop-metal renaissance. Metallica also expanded the limits of thrash, 

using speed and volume not for their own sake, but to enhance their intricately 

structured compositions. The release of 1983's Kill 'Em All marked the beginning 

of the legitimization of heavy metal's underground, bringing new complexity and depth to thrash metal

The true birth of thrash. On Kill 'Em All, Metallica fuses the intricate riffing of New Wave of 

British Heavy Metal bands like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Diamond Head with the velocity 

of Motörhead and hardcore punk. James Hetfield's highly technical rhythm guitar style 

drives most of the album, setting new standards of power, precision, and stamina. 

But really, the rest of the band is just as dexterous, playing with tightly controlled fury 

even at the most ridiculously fast tempos. There are already several extended, multi-sectioned 

compositions foreshadowing the band's later progressive epics, though these are driven 

by adrenaline, not texture. A few tributes to heavy metal itself are a bit dated lyrically; 

like Diamond Head, the band's biggest influence, Kill 'Em All's most effective tone is one

 of supernatural malevolence -- as pure sound, the record is already straight from the pits of hell. 

Ex-member Dave Mustaine co-wrote four of the original ten tracks, but the material all sounds 

of a piece. And actually, anyone who worked backward through the band's 

catalog might not fully appreciate the impact of Kill 'Em All when it first appeared...(AllMusic)
