Metallica is an American heavy metal band. They were formed in October 1981. With 57 million albums sold in the United States (RIAA Total Sales), and 40 million albums sold outside the U.S. [http://www.guitarcenter.com/interview/larsulrich/index.cfm, the total number of album sales is nearly 100 million. The band has become one of the most commercially successful heavy metal acts in history, as well as the 18th biggest selling act in American music history.
After building a following through its role in the development of modern heavy metal, especially thrash metal, (considered the leader of the "big four" of thrash metal, which includes Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax) in the mid-1980s, the band broadened its audience in the early 1990s. Accordingly, the band has stood as the most commercially visible example of the metal genre since the beginning of that decade.
In 2003 Metallica finally released their long-delayed 8th studio album, entitled St. Anger. Although critical reviews for the album were deeply divided, their 2004 "Madly in Anger with the World" tour in support of the album was very successful.
