What bands are inspired by metallica?
MOtorhead, Venom, Zeppelin, Sabbath. ALl the greats.
lol Motorhead?
MOTORHEAD HATES Metallica! Motorhead made a song called F**k Metallica. The song is a heavily distorted style of Enter The Sandman.
Answer 2: You couldn't be more wrong. Metallica and Motörhead are on very good terms. Motörhead made that song who is by the way a cover of Metallicas Enter the sandman for the chock value.
By the way you forgot the band Mercyful fate.
Its called Enter Sandman people and mercyful fate has copied one of metallicas songs called mercyful fate and plus mercyful fate wasnt in the 80's they are new!!!! learn the facts!
All right. The person who posted this answer was nothing more than a f**king retard. First off, Motorhead, Venom, Judas Priest, Mercyful Fate, Thin Lizzy and a lot of other bands have inspired Metallica. Metallica did inspire bands such as Machine Head, Dream Theater, Slayer and more. Motorhead, probably does hate Metallica. I have no idea why. But, Metallica probably respects Motorhead. Not to mention that in there Guitar Hero video game, they put in a song by Motorhead, that was chosen by Metallica. Also, Mercyful Fate has been around during the 1980's. The band Mercyful Fate is not new. Now, you learn the facts. Stupid... >.<

How many number 1 hits do metallica have?
In the duration of their career Metallica has had over fifteen number one hits. As you can see Metallica is a very popular band. Due to the amount of listeners, their songs have gotten extremely well known.
Who is better Metallica or Nirvana?
It all depends on who you prefer, if you like either band, that is; personally, I've heard more Kiss songs than Scorpions songs, probably because Kiss have received more radio play in general. However, the Scorpions are a very good band also and certainly the most famous rock band to ever come out of the country of Germany. So, if you ask me, both Kiss and Scorpions should be appreciated on their own terms.
No the bassist is. Clifford Lee Burton (Feb 10, 1962 - Sep 27, 1986) was a bass guitarist with Metallica from 1982 until his death in 1986 also lars had some health problems but he is fine now
Who was the first thrash metal band?
No one band created the genre.
Overkill was the first band to form in 1980.
Don't mistake this with Metallica who formed in 1981.
Overkill was formed in 1980 and played mostly covers of punk bands but never got a contract with a record company to release anything until 1985. Although they had written songs, their first demo wasn't released until 1983.
The first thrash metal song ever written was "Unlea--------------------------
^^^^ Forget what that guy was saying, Anvil was the first, they basicaly plain and simply invented thrash, formed in 1978 first album in 81, still going strong.
Well actually Venom was formed in 1978 although the first members did not last long, they released welcome to hell in 1981 and black metal 82 who inspired band like slayer megadeth and metalilica who said in interviews and stuff that venon inspired them by the speed
BONUS FACT venom also inspired early death metal and black metal Chuck Shouldiner (RIP) who is called the father of death metal said that venom started death metal not his band death

Who sold more albums metallica or iron maiden?
Answer:
Iron maiden is, and always truly will be, the best band in existence. the Irons even influenced Metallica. Iron maiden songs combine history and literature with face-melting riffs, and have the best instrumentals I've ever heard. There really is no question here; Metallica is only more popular because they appear in the media. I dunno why some dumb kids vote metallica over iron maiden when they've not heard of the Irons and barely even gotten into metallica, but chavs like that exist, I suppose.
If you still think Metallica is better than Maiden, listen to about any song from the Powerslave album, preferably the title track, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, or two minutes to midnight. If you still aren't impressed, look at Hallowed be thy Name, Transylvania, even Run to the Hills, or Loneliness of the long distance runner.

Metallica is the best band ever made..they are not just a band..they are a family..we are a family..the Metallifamily..and we are just like friends..whatever..METALLICA FOREVER GUYS!
___________________________________
Iron Maiden, even before Metallica has sold out, wins.
Metallica is a great band before the Black Album, they have great riffs, which, the best are, made by DAVE MUSTAINE.
Iron Maiden, first of all, has one of the greatest vocalists in history. Bruce Dickinson has a great voice, etc, that makes him one of the greatest metal vocalist in history.
Iron Maiden has a complex and great guitar layering made by the 3 guitarists, who are all highly skilled, and the drummer is also highly skilled. Steve Harris is a great musician and a bassist, and is far better than Metallica.
Overall, Iron Maiden > Metallica.
All metallica's best riffs were from mustaine and maiden is an incredible band im tired of so many metallica fan boys. Iron Maiden are technically more gifted in the sense that each of their guitarists have amazing abilities and are incredibly synchronised. They also have a technically better vocalist in Bruce Dickinson compared to Hetfield.
________________________________________________________________
Metallica have sold more albums than Iron Maiden and Hetfield has a better metal voice than Bruce Dickinson because Bruce uses high voices where as James uses more a roar Dave Mustaine was thrown out of the band before kill 'em all was released and james is a talented guitarist and kirk composes his solos better
Cliff Burton is a lot better than Iron Maidens bassist he was the best bassist in metal
Overall Metallica>Iron Maiden
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Iron Maiden beat Metallica in every category. Vocals, guitar skills, bass, drums, also a much more consistent band, having released 9 albums in a row that were all awesome in their own unique way (Number Of The Beast, Piece Of Mind, Powerslave, Live After Death, Somewhere In Time, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, No Prayer For The Dying, Fear Of The Dark, and a Real Live Dead One). Maiden perform so much better live, having picked up a Brit award for their live shows recently. Metallica are only more popular because they were way more mainstream than Maiden.
Songs like The Journeyman and Blood Brothers beat songs like Fade To Black and Nothing Else Matters.
Paschendale, Dance of Death and No More Lies beat The Unforgiven II, The Memory Remains and King Nothing.
Not to mention Maiden's unbelievable classic catalog, consisting of classics like Wrathchild, Iron Maiden, Sanctuary, Number Of The Beast, Run To The Hills, Children Of The Damned, Hallowed Be Thy Name, The Trooper, Where Eagles Dare, Revelations, Flight Of Icarus, Rime Of The Ancient Mariner, Powerslave, Aces High, 2 Minutes To Midnight, Wasted Years, Heaven Can Wait, Caught Somewhere In Time, Alexander The Great, Loneliness of the Long Distant Runner, Moonchild, The Clairvoyant, The Evil That Men Do, Infinite Dreams, Can I Play With Madness, Only The Good Die Young, Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter, Tail Gunner, Fear Of The Dark, Afraid To Shoot Strangers, Be Quick Or Be Dead, From Here To Eternity... etc etc.
IRON MAIDEN'S 'GREATEST HITS' IS BIGGER THAN MOST BANDS' ENTIRE CATALOG.
^^ This about sums it all up.
Maiden>Metallica end of discussion.
