Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Metallica's first album contained a song called "The Four Horsemen"- but what was this song also called?

Answer: Mechanix

They gave this song a new name and lyrics following the departure of original lead axeman Dave Mustaine (who went on to form Megadeth.) The song "Mechanix" would eventually appear on Megadeth's debut album, 1985's 'Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good!'
"Power Metal" was the band's first EP.

Answer: Fade To Black

All the songs on "Ride The Lightning" were about death! Each song dealt with a different way of dying, from nuclear war in "Fight Fire With Fire" to the biblical events of ancient Egypt (Plagues, deaths, the first Passover, etc) in "Creeping Death."

3. Metallica's third album, 1986's "Master of Puppets" would set the standard in thrash metal. What is the correct order that these four classics come on that album? (In the UK)

Answer: Battery, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Disposable Heroes, Leper Messiah

This one's easy if you own the album, as any true Metallica fan should! If you got this wrong you only have yourself to blame!

Answer: Oh Baby!

As the bill contained such acts as Bon Jovi and Ratt, James thought he'd warn the crowd that Metallica was a little different! In doing so, he displayed his legendary on-stage persona that is still with him today. Alas, the same can't be said of his hair...

Answer: One

The video included footage from the film "Johnny Got His Gun." The band had to purchase the rights to the film in order to include it in their video!

6. What was the name of the short album of covers that Metallica released in 1987 to introduce fans to new bass player, Jason Newsted?

Answer: Garage Days Re-Revisited

This album became a rare collector's item after being withdrawn soon after release. Jason was brought in to replace previous bassist Cliff Burton, who died in a road accident in Sweden in 1986. RIP Cliff

7. Metallica got a new producer for their 1991 "Metallica" album, which is also known as "The Black Album". Who was he?

Answer: Bob Rock

Bob told the band that he thought they had never made a record that showed off their full capabilities. Hetfield and co. embraced the challenge, and "Metallica" went on to be a global mega-hit.

8. Tricky question this. On the video/DVD "Cunning Stunts", a Metallica classic is only half played, before "Enter Sandman" kicks in. Which song do they only half-play?

Answer: Master Of Puppets

This live performance will be remembered for the almost ludicrous stunt at the end of "Enter Sandman", including crashing stage equipment, guys on fire and more!

Answer: The Unforgiven

The band was nervous before the two nights, as they had never attempted anything like this before! The end result was excellent, with two new songs being performed. ("No Leaf Clover" and "Minus Human".) Metallica had wanted "The Unforgiven" to be included, but a suitable orchesral part couldn't be written.

10. The title track off 2003's "St Anger" features lyrical references to two earlier Metallica songs. They are...

Answer: "Hit The Lights" and "Damage Inc."

There is no Metallica song called "Set It Free"! The line from "St Anger" that also appears in "Damage Inc" is the part before the line 'I hit the lights on these dark sets.' This album was the first studio album Metallica had made since 1997!
