About this episode

The week of April 10, 2024 on The Metallica Report…


Riff master Brian Tatler cranks up the Wayback Machine to share stories of Diamond Head’s biggest (and possibly only) fan in America in 1981: a 17-year-old named Lars Ulrich. Turns out, that same kid was starting a band of his own. A few traded covers and several decades later, and the rest is history!
