In a new interview, James Hetfield reflected on Metallica's '90s period, revealing he doesn't feel late bassist Cliff Burton would have enjoyed the direction.
As a young musician, Cliff Burton dreamed of a time when he'd be able to provide a better life for his parents through his art. Three decades after his death, that dream is still coming true.
Metallica and Anthrax are not only part of 'The Big 4,' but also came up through the metal ranks at the same time. Their shared history dates back to the '80s, and sadly Anthrax were there with Metallica during the most traumatic and tragic event of their early career -- the death of bassist Cliff Burton.
Yesterday (Sept. 27) marked the 26th anniversary of Metallica bassist Cliff Burton's shocking death, prompting an outpouring of memories from fans -- as well as a tribute from his surviving bandmates.
