Metallica là ban nhạc heavy metal của Mỹ, thành lập ngày 28 Tháng 10, 1981.[1]
Với hơn 20 triệu album bán ra toàn thế giới,[2] riêng ở Mỹ là 57 triệu albums,[3][4] đây là ban nhạc heavy metal thành công nhất về mặt thương mại trong lịch sử. Metallica cũng được công nhận là, cùng với 3 ban khác của "tứ trụ" nhạc thrash metal, Megadeth, Slayer và Anthrax, đã làm cho thể loại nhạc này trở nên thịnh hành.

[sửa] Lịch sử ban nhạc
[sửa] Khai sinh
Metallica được thành lập ở Los Angeles, California, vào Tháng 10 1981 bởi tay guitar và ca sĩ James Hetfield và tay trống Lars Ulrich sau khi cả 2 bắt gặp nhau qua những mẫu rao vặt trên tờ The Recycler về việc thành lập ban nhạc. Bộ đôi sau đó tuyển mộ tay bass Ron McGovney, và giai đoạn này qua tay nhiều guitar chính, như là Lloyd Grant, Brad Parker, và Jeff Warner. Cái tên Metallica được đặt khi Ron Quintana, một người ủng hộ nhạc metal vùng San Francisco, nhờ Ulrich chọn một cái tên để đặt cho tờ tạp chí mới của anh ta (tờ tạp chí cổ động cho các ban nhạc metal của Anh và Mỹ). Quintana bắt đầu chọn từ một danh sách bao gồm "Metallica", nhưng Lars đề nghị chọn "Metal Mania" và lấy tên "Metallica" cho ban nhạc.
Nhạc của Metallica trước tiên lấy cảm hứng từ những ban nhạc như Black Sabbath, Motörhead, Diamond Head, Saxon, Judas Priest, và những ban heavy metal khác của Anh. Họ cũng được truyền cảm hứng từ những ban nhạc punk như làMisfits, Zeroption, Discharge, và The Ramones.
Đầu năm 1982, Ulrich thuyết phục Brian Slagel của hãng ghi âm Metal Blade chọn bài hát "Hit the Lights" vào bộ biên soạn Metal Massacre số đầu tiên. Trong nỗ lực tìm kiếm một tay guitar dài hạn, Ulrich cho đăng quảng cáo trên một tờ báo địa phương. Dave Mustaine ở Huntington Beach, California, lúc này đang chơi cho ban Panic đáp lại và hẹn một buổi thử. Ulrich và Hetfield quá ấn tượng với màn khởi động và nhạc cụ của Mustaine, và mời Mustaine vào ban nhạc ngay trước cà khi buổi thử thật sự bắt đầu.
Vào tháng 3 và tháng 4 năm 1982, một vài bản demo nhỏ được ghi âm với cơ cấu thành viên này, trong đó có Hit The Lights, Ron's Garage (được ghi âm tại garage nhà McGoveney) và Power Metal.
Vài tháng sau ban nhạc ghi một bản demo full hoàn chỉnh, No Life 'Til Leather - bản này nhanh chóng gây được chú ý trong giới băng đĩa lậu. Metallica tiếp tục cho ra đời một bản demo (live) nữa Metal Up Your Ass.
Cuối năm đó, Ron McGovney rời ban nhạc sau khi bị Dave Mustaine đổ bia lên cây bass. Sau khi xem một ban nhạc tên là Trauma chơi, Metallica đề nghị tay bass của Trauma là Cliff Burton về chơi cho họ. Burton đồng ý vời điều kiện là Metallica phải dọn tới quê của anh này ở San Francisco. Cùng với Burton, ban nhạc ghi âm bản demo Megaforce.
Sau khi định hình ở quần thể thrash metal Vịnh Area, Metallica đi đến New York vào năm 1983 để gặp những người ủng hộ tên là Jon and Marsha Zazula. Sau khi đánh thử vài bản, ban nhạc ký hợp đồng với hãng ghi âm mới của anh em Zazula, Megaforce Records. Không lâu sau, Ulrich và Hetfield thấy rằng thái độ hung hăng và lộn xộn do uống và dùng quá nhiều thuốc của Mustaine đã trở nên không thể quản lý được. Mustaine được yêu cầu rời khỏi ban, và Kirk Hammett được lôi về từ ban Exodus. Sau khi rời Metallica, Mustaine tạo dựng nên ban nhạc thành công Megadeth.
Cuối mùa xuân 1983, ban nhạc đến Rochester, New York để ghi âm album đầu tay, Kill 'Em All. Album này không thật sự là một thành công khời tạo về mặt tài chính, nhưng đã gây dựng cho ban nhạc một lớp fan hâm mộ trong thế giới ngầm nhạc metal. Một năm sau, Metallica phát hành Ride the Lightning. Việc Album này bao gồm một bản nhạc chậm và mang nhiều tính nội tâm, Fade to Black, đã đặt Metallica riêng ra hầu hết các ban thrash metal khác. Trong khi nhiều fan thích thú với phong cách mới mẻ của bài hát, một vài buộc tội Metallica vì đã xúi giục "bán rẻ" và "tự tử". Tiêu bản:Sample box start variation 2

[sửa] Thành công vang dội
Khi Ride The Lightning đã bắt được sự chú ý của những hãng ghi âm tên tuổi, Metallica ký hợp đồng với hãng Elektra Records. Phát hành đầu tiên với Elektra là Master of Puppets vào năm 1986, album đánh dấu bước nhảy vọt của ban nhạc. Mặc dù không có đĩa đơn được phát hành từ album, một vài đoạn nhạc vẫn được phát sóng từ các track "Master of Puppets" và "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)". Ban nhạc còn được biết đến nhiều hơn nữa khi được hỏi chơi mở màn cho Ozzy Osbourne, và Master of Puppets leo lên đến vị thứ 29 bảng xếp hạng Billboard Top Album Charts.[5] Cho đến hôm nay, vài nhà phê bình vẫn xem album này như là một trong những alnum nhạc metal hay nhất mọi thời đại.[6]
Vào ngày 27 tháng 9, 1986, trên đường đi lưu diễn ở Châu Âu, Cliff Burton bị chết gần Ljungby, Thụy Điển, khi chiếc xe bus của ban nhạc bị trượt khỏi đường trơn và lật nhào.[7] Burton theo quán tính hất văng khỏi xe và bị chiếc xe đè lên người. Tại thời điểm này cũng không chắc là Burton đã chết hay chưa. Một chiếc cần trục được điều động đến để nâng chiếc xe buýt lên, nhưng chiếc xe lại trượt xuống và đè lên Burton một lần nữa.
Cái chết của Burton bỏ ngỏ tương lai ban nhạc. Nhưng rồi ba thành viên còn lại quyết định là tay bass này sẽ muốn họ tiếp tục. James Hetfield sau này có nói: “Knowing Cliff’s attitude, he’d kick our butts if we quit.” Gần như ngay lập tức, ban nhạc tìm kiếm một tay bass thay thế và bắt đầu thử. Trong số này có tay bass Les Claypool (của ban Primus sau này), một người bạn lúc nhỏ của Hammett. Ban nhạc thích Claypool nhưng lại cảm thấy anh này chơi quá "funk". Trong đoạn phim Behind the Music, Hetfield có giải thích rằng Claypool chơi "quá tốt" và "ngoài vùng" đối với Metallica. Hẵn nhiên là Claypool không được chọn, và Jason Newsted, sáng lập ban Flotsam and Jetsam ở Arizona được mời tham gia. Newsted chính thức gia nhập Metallica vào ngày 28 tháng 10, 1986, 3 tuần sau lễ tang Burton. Cùng Newsted, ban nhạc hoàn thành tour diễn trong những tháng đầu 1987. Tiếp theo tour này, ban nhạc nhanh chóng bắt tay ghi âm The $5.98 EP: Garage Days Re-Revisited vào tháng 7, 1987 để thử nghiệm phòng thu họ mới dựng, và để thử tài năng của Newsted.
...And Justice for All, album đầu tiên sau cái chết của Burton, được ra mắt vào năm 1988. Trong album này rất ít khi tiếng bass của Newsted có thể nghe rõ được và vài fan cho rằng đây là việc làm có chủ ý nhằm phản ứng với cái chết của Burton, hoặc là một cách xử ép Newsted. Lý do hợp lý nhất, như Hetfield và Ulrich trả lời phỏng vấn, là vì Newsted không có mặt trong lúc trộn (mix) nhạc, nên không thể tác động đến bản trộn cuối cùng. Ulrich cũng cho rằng việc thiếu tiếng bass là do Newsted chơi hoàn toàn theo như tiếng accord của Hetfield. (Ulrich has also stated his opinion that the lack of perceived bass resulted from Newsted exclusively mirroring Hetfield's rhythm tracks.)
Although the song-writing was praised, the production of this album was heavily criticized as Lars Ulrich's drums clicked more than thudded and the guitars had a thin sound.[8] The Damaged Justice tour followed.
Despite criticism, in 1989, Metallica received its first Grammy nomination for the album. The nomination was for the newly created Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrument. However, the award was given to Jethro Tull for the album Crest of a Knave. The result generated much controversy, as Metallica was widely expected to take home the award and was standing off-stage waiting to receive it after performing the song "One" for the telecast. Jethro Tull (who was considered by most to not even be a Hard Rock/Metal group) had not even bothered to attend the ceremony, assuming that their chance of winning would be a longshot at best. Lars Ulrich even referenced the snub in accepting a Grammy for "Enter Sandman" three years later, stating, "We gotta thank Jethro Tull for not putting out an album this year."
It was during this time the band embraced the mainstream music world with their first ever music video. Ironically, with a video for the song "One." For the video, the band performed the song in an abandoned warehouse. The performance was then extensively "remixed" with footage of the film version of Johnny Got His Gun. Rather than organize an ongoing licensing deal, Metallica simply bought the rights to the film outright. This is why the film has not had a subsequent DVD pressing. The end result featured a coherent but shortened "mini-movie" version of "Johnny Got His Gun" with an intricate level of synchronization between the song and the film's dialogue, creating a singular narrative between the two.
The "remix" video was submitted to MTV, with the alternate "performance only" version held back in the event that MTV would ban the remix version. MTV accepted the remix version despite its length (the video ran for nearly ten minutes). The video would be many viewers' first exposure to Metallica and was voted #25 in the fall of 1999 when MTV aired its last "Top 100 Videos of All Time" countdown. The video was also prominently featured during MTV's 25th Anniversary edition of "ADD Video," which showcased the top videos to air on MTV in the last 25 years.[9]
In 1991, Metallica released their self-titled album, Metallica (popularly known as The Black Album by fans). The record was co-produced with Bob Rock, whose resume included work with hard rock acts The Cult, Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe, and many others. The album featured a black cover that evoked humorous comparisons to Spinal Tap. The majority of the making of the Metallica album and the following tour was documented in A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica. The recording sessions were a long and arduous process, lasting over a year due to infighting among the band's members and endless arguments with Rock about the album's direction, scope, and sound. The cost of recording the album was over $1 million (as stated on Behind the Music: Metallica). However, despite the battle to finish the album, it quickly became the band's most successful release, charting at number one on the Billboard charts.[10]
The albums first single was, "Enter Sandman," which showed off the new albums slowed-down style of music compared to Metallica's previous work. The song became a hit and Metallica's best-known song. The Black Album became Metallica's bestselling, and is currently tied for the 26th spot of highest selling album of all time in America.
Due to the albums new style of sound, more charges of selling out would be aimed at Metallica throughout the 1990s, to which the band often joked that they did indeed sell out - each and every date of the tour. In 1992 during a hugely financially successful co-headlining tour with Guns N' Roses, Hetfield suffered severe second and third degree burns to his left arm during the opening of "Fade To Black," leaving him unable to play guitar for a portion of the tour. Former Metallica roadie and Metal Church guitarist John Marshall filled in for the rest of the tour on guitar while Hetfield continued to sing.
[sửa] Album Load, ReLoad, Garage Inc., S&M
After almost three years of touring to support The Black Album, including a headlining performance at Woodstock 1994, Metallica took a break until late 1995. On December 13 of that year, they recorded their rehearsal for Lemmy Kilmister's 50th birthday party; four Motörhead covers which were later released as a two-part limited edition CD single. The band spent around a year writing and recording new songs, resulting in 1996's Load. During early production, Load was intended to be a double album. Ultimately, it was decided that it would be best to release half of the songs first, and continue to work on the remaining songs, and release them the following year. This resulted in the follow up album, ReLoad.
By 1996, with the release of Load, all of the band members had cut their hair (although Hammett eventually grew it back), which was ridiculed by many,[cần chú thích] including band friends Alice in Chains, whose edition of MTV's Unplugged featured, on Mike Inez's bass, the words "friends don't let friends get Friends haircuts."
According to several music journalists[cần chú thích] these albums represented a significant musical change for Metallica. These journalists state that the band's breakneck metal tempos and layered guitar compositions had largely been replaced by bluesy guitar tones and slide guitar. Several songs include the use of new instruments including the use of the hurdy-gurdy and violin in "Low Man's Lyric". Many of the changes on Load and ReLoad had been anticipated by earlier experiments (especially on The Black Album).
Sales of these albums were lower than sales of the previous three albums. Hetfield noted later in the documentary film Some Kind of Monster that many songs on these two albums were initially thought by the band to be of only average quality, and polished and reworked repeatedly until judged to be releasable.
In 1998, Metallica compiled a double CD called Garage Inc.. The first CD contained newly recorded covers ranging from Killing Joke, The Misfits, Thin Lizzy, Mercyful Fate, and Black Sabbath to more unexpected choices like Nick Cave and Bob Seger (the band's cover of Seger's "Turn the Page" garnered extensive radio airplay). The second CD gathered together previously released covers, including the original The $5.98 E.P.: Garage Days Re-Revisited, which had become a scarce collector's item. The CD also included B-side covers going as far back as 1984.
On March 7, 1999, Metallica was inducted into the San Francisco Walk of Fame. The mayor of San Francisco, Willie Brown, proclaimed the day "Official Metallica Day" in San Francisco. A month later, on April 21-22, 1999, Metallica recorded two performances with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, then conducted by Michael Kamen. Kamen, who had previously worked with Bob Rock on "Nothing Else Matters", approached the band with the idea of pairing Metallica's music with a symphony orchestra. Kamen and his staff composed additional orchestral material for a number of Metallica songs and the concerts featured broad selection of songs dating as far back as Ride the Lightning. Metallica also wrote two brand new Kamen-scored songs for the event, "No Leaf Clover" and "−Human." The audio recording and concert footage were released later that year as the album/concert film S&M, in November 1999, on CD, VHS, VCD, and DVD.
[sửa] Vụ tranh cãi Napster
In 2000, Metallica discovered that a demo of their song "I Disappear" was being distributed via the Napster P2P file-sharing network. Not only was the song unfinished, it was supposed to be released in combination with the Mission: Impossible II soundtrack.
They soon discovered that in addition to the demo, their entire catalogue was also freely available. The band initiated legal action against Napster and, in the process, demanded that 300,000 Napster users found to be trading Metallica songs be banned from the network. Legal actions were also started against Yale University, University of Southern California, and Indiana University for not blocking Napster from their campuses. In 2001, Metallica and Napster agreed to an out-of-court settlement which led to many Napster user accounts being locked out (the band did not take legal action against any individuals for copyright infringement). This led to Lars Ulrich providing a statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding copyright infringement on July 11, 2000.
The lawsuit created a public relations nightmare. Throughout the controversy, many websites hosted cartoon parodies of band members, portraying them as selfish rock stars who were out of touch with their fans. The most popular of these was a cartoon parody entitled Napster Bad!, by Camp Chaos, which spawned an entire series. Some critics mocked Ulrich by spelling his name as "Lar$". In retaliation to the controversy, Ulrich appeared during the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards, in a skit with that year's host Marlon Wayans, that blasted the idea of using Napster to share music. Marlon played a college student sitting in his dorm room, listening to Metallica's "I Disappear". Ulrich, playing himself, walked in and asked for an explanation. Upon receiving Wayans' excuse that using Napster was just "sharing", Lars retorted that Marlon's idea of sharing was simply borrowing things that weren't yours without asking. He called in the Metallica road crew, who proceeded to confiscate all Wayans' belongings, leaving him almost nude in an empty room. Napster creator Shawn Fanning responded later in the ceremony by presenting an award wearing a Metallica shirt, saying "I borrowed this shirt from a friend. Maybe, if I like it, I'll buy one of my own".
Public ridicule was widespread as Metallica had gotten their start via underground trading of bootleg recordings of their performances.[11] Metallica's defense was that Napster was allowing free access to their back catalogue and not live bootleg recordings, which the band had always encouraged. The fan backlash would not be the only setback the band would experience that year.
[sửa] Newsted ra đi, Album St. Anger
As plans were being made to go into the recording studio in 2001, Newsted left the band, due to as he put it, "the physical damage I have done to myself over the years while playing the music that I love." However, subsequent interviews with Newsted and the remaining members revealed that Newsted's desire to release a CD and tour with his Echobrain side-project - and Hetfield's intense resistance to such an idea - was the primary cause of Newsted's departure. Additionally, a Playboy interview revealed that the "hazing" that Newsted received since joining the band had not lessened over time. Finally, Newsted had never shared the songwriting partner status that Burton had enjoyed (in 15 years with the group, Newsted only co-wrote credit on three songs: "Blackened" from ...And Justice For All, "My Friend of Misery" from Metallica and "Where The Wild Things Are" from Re-Load). The 2004 documentary, Some Kind of Monster provided more insight into the reasons for Newsted's departure. In the film he says he felt his former bandmates decision to hire a therapist to help solve their problems was "really fucking lame. And weak."
In July, 2001, Hetfield entered rehab due to "alcoholism and other addictions". For nearly a year, Metallica ceased to function in any meaningful way. Ulrich and Hammett, for the first time, seriously considered the possibility that Metallica might be finished. Hetfield eventually returned to the band following his rehab hiatus and was required to work only four hours a day and spend the rest of his time with his family. Metallica continued slowly as a three-piece throughout the writing and recording of their next album. Longtime producer Bob Rock handled bass duties for the sessions. The making of the album was documented for the movie, "Some Kind of Monster". The film also exposed to fans that Metallica had sought the guidance of a therapist, Phil Towle, to deal with a vast amount of the band's inner turmoil.
Following the album's recording, Metallica held auditions for Newsted's permanent replacement in early 2003. Robert Trujillo formerly of Suicidal Tendencies, and Ozzy Osbourne's band, was chosen as the new bassist. Robert's resume also included Infectious Grooves as well as a stint with Black Label Society on their Boozed, Broozed, and Broken-Boned DVD. As Metallica moved on, Jason Newsted also found a new musical home joining Canadian thrash metal legends Voivod in 2002. In an interesting turn of events, Jason also became Robert's replacement in Ozzy's band during the 2003 Ozzfest tour (which included Voivod as part of the touring bill).
In June 2003, Metallica's eighth full-length recording, St. Anger, debuted at number one on the album charts. Being an intentionally raw and unpolished album, harsh criticism from fans followed. The record's under-produced sound, Hetfield's "flexible" sense of pitch, Ulrich's steely sounding snare, and the absence of any guitar solos received particular criticism. Despite this, the album won the best metal performance at the 2004 Grammys.
Having toured extensively for two years in support of St. Anger on the Summer Sanitarium Tour 2003 in festivals featuring Mudvayne, Deftones, Linkin Park, and Limp Bizkit and then the lengthy Madly in Anger with the World tour with Godsmack (in which nearly every performance was professionally recorded and sold on LiveMetallica.com) Metallica took a break from performing and spent most of 2005 with friends and family, however on November 13, 2005 and November 15, 2005, they got together to open shows for the Rolling Stones at SBC Park in San Francisco.[12]
[sửa] Sự kiện gần đây, album phòng thu thứ 9
On February 16 2006, Metallica announced on their official website that after their 15+ year relationship, longtime producer Bob Rock was stepping down and would not be recording Metallica's next studio album. Rock had produced every Metallica album since 1991. Metallica is currently working on a studio album with legendary producer Rick Rubin[13] who has produced albums for other prominent Metal bands such as: Slipknot, Slayer, AC/DC, System of a Down, Danzig, and Rage Against the Machine.
Metallica debuted an untitled song nicknamed "The New Song" in Berlin, Germany on June 6th, 2006 on the European leg of the Escape from the Studio '06 mini tour. On August 12th, 2006, Metallica debuted another song in Tokyo, Japan on the Asian leg of the tour, nicknamed "The Other New Song" (which are available to view on YouTube). They have also supported the Summer Sonic tour in Tokyo and Osaka, along with Linkin Park.
The band has previously unveiled new songs prior to their release: Four songs from Ride the Lightning ("Fight Fire with Fire", "Ride The Lightning", "Creeping Death", and "The Call of Ktulu") were performed before the release of the album; Master of Puppets' "Disposable Heroes" was debuted in September of 1985; ...And Justice for All's "Harvester of Sorrow" received its live debut in 1987, Load's "2x4" was played during the Escape from the Studio '95 mini-tour; and Reload's "Fuel" and "Devil's Dance" were played at various points during the Load tour 1996-97 and again during the 3 shows European mini-tour in August 1997 ("The Memory Remains" and "Bad Seed" were teased numerous times at shows throughout 1996 and 1997).
It was during this time on tour that the band finally bowed to fan pressure decided to make each of their albums available at the iTunes Store - though strictly only in the U.S. and Canada until issues with their European label are resolved - allowing individual tracks to be legally downloaded for the first time. Exclusive tracks from the Seattle '89 shows were added to the band's first four albums.
Vào ngày 13 tháng 10, 2006 Metallica thông báo về việc phát hành một DVD chứa tất cả những video của ban nhạc từ năm 1989 đến 2004. DVD này được gọi là The Videos 1989-2004, và đã được phát hành vào ngày 4 tháng 12, 2006 trên toàn thế giới.[14]

An untitled 2-track demo which has been named the "Megaforce Demo", it was quickly recorded to introduce Cliff Burton to potential record lables, which then led them to signing with Megaforce records. The tracks recorded for the demo were "Whiplash" and "No Remorse" (also featuring different lead parts). Footage of this line up playing live can be seen on the Cliff 'Em All video.
