Metallica was a band that was well known in the 80's for their hardcore and thrash metal style and for being one of the pioneers of the metal scene in the United States. After their 1988 ablum "..And Justice for All" they decided to change it up and approach their next album differently. To do this they teamed up with Bob Rock, who had produced such classic album with other bands like Motley Crue "Dr. Feelgood", and they went into the sutdio and recorded a 12 song cd and plainly called it Metallica(later known as "the black album" bcause of its dark cover). The album was loaded with great tacks complete threw metal music and Metallica back into the mainstream. The Album sold over 22 million copies worldwide, and Metallica went on a world tour and kept touring for three years after the release of the album.
Since then they have released several more cd's, their latest being 2009's Death Magnetic, but The Black Album is considered their biggest success.
