The tempos are fast, the riffs are heavy and \u003cstrong\u003eJames Hetfield\u003c\/strong\u003e sounds like he is going to give himself an aneurysm at any moment. Leading up to the recording of the album the band had signed with \u003cstrong\u003eMegaforce Records\u003c\/strong\u003e. On a trip to New York after signing with the label they famously fired then lead guitarist, \u003cstrong\u003eDave Mustaine\u003c\/strong\u003e. This would lead to the long feud between the \u003cstrong\u003eMegadeth\u003c\/strong\u003e leader and Metallica. They hired \u003cstrong\u003eKirk Hammett\u003c\/strong\u003e to replace Mustaine after having picked up the legendary \u003cstrong\u003eCliff Burton\u003c\/strong\u003e on bass. The rest is history. \"(Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth\" is one of the notable Burton contributions to the album and, according to Hetfield and \u003cstrong\u003eLars Ulrich\u003c\/strong\u003e, the reason they hired him in the first place. He's even credited with coming up with the name of the album after a dispute with record distributors over the band's original title, \u003ci\u003eMetal Up Your Ass\u003c\/i\u003e. For all intents and purposes Metallica gave birth to thrash metal with \u003ci\u003eKill 'Em All\u003c\/i\u003e. They have songs dedicated to headbanging (\"Whiplash\"), the apocalypse (\"Four Horsemen\"), and not feeling any remorse or repent during battle in war (\"No Remorse\").
