迷上金属柔情《fade to black》--Ｍetallica乐队

被称为"融合了全美最强有力的交响乐团和全球最强有力的摇滚乐队"--Metallica(金属乐队）1983年发行的首张专辑《Kill 'Em All》推出，这张唱片的风格被认为是第一张Thrash Metal专辑。唱片出售了30万张，乐队在美国和欧洲都有了一定的知名度。

次年，Metallica第2张专辑《Ride The Lighting》也在Megafore旗下推出，再获成功。这张专辑在毫无宣传的情况下达到了金唱片的销量，并在Billboard专辑榜前200名停留了50周。Thrash Metal开始推向全球。 

1986年，Metallica的第三张专辑《Master Of Puppets》推出，这张专辑赢得了比上两张专辑更为出色的成绩，把Metallica推上了重金属的顶峰。随后，乐队随同Ozzy Osboume进行全美巡回演出，通过Metallica高速的吉它和弦、飞快的吉它Solo、变化多端的鼓点，越来越多的人开始认识Thrash Metal的威力，Metallica成为最收欢迎的重金属乐队之一。

歌词：

Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else

I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free

Things are not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel

Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now Has gone

No one but me can save myself, but it to late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death Greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye
