The discography of Metallica, a Californian heavy metal band formed in 1981 by James Hetfield (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) and Lars Ulrich (drums). After several lead guitarist and bassist changes, the band settled on Kirk Hammett and Cliff Burton, respectively. Metallica started playing locally, releasing its first well known demo, No Life 'til Leather in 1982. The demo caught the attention of Johny Zazula, who signed Metallica to Megaforce Records.[1] The band released Kill 'Em All in 1983, and the following year they released Ride the Lightning. After Ride the Lightning came out, Metallica left Megaforce and signed to Elektra Records.[2] In March 1986, the band released its third studio album, Master of Puppets, which was Metallica's first album to be certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[3] While promoting the album, Burton was killed in a bus accident. Jason Newsted was hired as a replacement and the band's first release to feature the new member was an EP of cover songs. …And Justice for All was released in August 1988 and peaked at number six on the Billboard 200.[4]

Metallica's fifth, self-titled album was released in 1991 and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.[4] The band embarked on a two year tour in support of the album. Metallica has since been certified 15 times platinum by the RIAA.[3] Metallica wrote enough material for a double album, but released it all as two separate albums, titled Load and ReLoad.[5] After the release of a cover album and a live album, Newsted (who would later join Voivod) departed from the band. Metallica recorded St. Anger without an official bassist. Robert Trujillo became Metallica's newest bassist in 2003. The band recently released its ninth studio album, Death Magnetic, which was produced by Rick Rubin. The album is distributed through Warner Bros. Records. In April 2009, the band's catalogue was released on the iTunes Store as The Metallica Collection.[6] Metallica has sold more than 100 million records worldwide,[7] with over 60 million records in the United States alone. Metallica is the only band in history to have five consecutive studio albums debut at #1 on the Billboard 200.[8][9]

In a June 2009 interview with Italy's Rock TV, Ulrich stated that the next Metallica album will again be produced by Rick Rubin, although they have no plans to record it until sometime after the Death Magnetic tour ends in August 2010.[10]
