Metallica is an American heavy metal band, formed in October 1981.
With over 100 million albums sold worldwide, the band is one of the most commercially successful heavy metal acts in history. Metallica are currently 18th on the RIAA's list of top selling acts in the United States.
After building a loyal following through its role in the development of modern heavy metal, especially thrash metal, (the most successful of the "big four" of thrash metal, which also included Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax) in the mid-1980s, the band broadened its audience in the early 1990s. Since then, the band has stood as the most commercially visible example of the metal genre.
In 2003 Metallica released their long-delayed 8th studio album, entitled St. Anger. Although the album polarised critical and popular opinion, their 2004 "Madly in Anger with the World" supporting tour was a success

My dad listened to them...and if my dad listens to them, they're more than likely classic rock.
