Writing Credits[edit]

Could someone please fill in the first name for the "Smith" listed for "Blitzkrieg"? It's so pointless, stupid and annoying to only be able to see the last names, and I couldn't find out the first name anywhere.

I did a little investigating. There seems to be a discrepancy in who actually holds the writing credits for the song. Metallica's website states (Jones / Smith / Sirotto). On the cd The Metallic-Era by Neat Metal Records, the song is credited to (Jones / Ross / Sirotto). I've emailed both Metallica's webmaster and Blitzkrieg's Band Info email addresses. If I get a response I'll post it in this discussion page. If I do get a final answer I doubt I'll be able to use it in the article though. Rockfang 23:20, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If another CD credits it to (Jones / Ross / Sirotto), that's almost definately referring to Brian Ross, and I'm guessing that the "Smith" is some sort of misprint for his name. I've looked all over, and all I've been able to find credits the song to (Jones / Jim Sirotto / Smith), and I was only able to figure out who the "Jones" was based on the band's page. I looked there too for a "Smith", but couldn't find it, so I'm highly guessing the version that said "Ross" was right, since Brian Ross the frontman of the band, and would more likely be involved in the writing of the song than some person named Smith whose first name can't even be found anywhere on the internet. Why shouldn't you be able to list the name, though, if you do get a final answer? He wrote the song, he's credited to it, and everyone else's name is listed. I don't see what exception should be made.

I still haven't gotten an answer back from either group I emailed. If I do get a response back what would I put in the article as a reference? --Rockfang (talk) 22:42, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't bother with a reference. There's nothing to say that the name you put isn't accurate, and there's nothing to prove you wrong. Just a name will do, any who question it can ask you and you can explain the situation to them.

Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance[edit]

This article, and others through redirect, shows Metallica as winning the Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance in 1999. The award is shown as a 2000 award on the Best Hard Rock Performance page as directed here. Obviously one article shows incorrect facts. My76Strat (talk) 15:28, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have contacted the webmaster at Metallica's official site and confirmed the award as a 2000 award. I made the subsequent change and this article now correctly shows the award as a 2000 award. My76Strat (talk) 15:53, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Burton backing vocals[edit]

Cliff Burton did not sing on "Am I Evil" of "Blit" because there are no backing vocals on the track. Where do people get this crap from? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.226.95.18 (talk) 01:30, 22 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Title[edit]

Do anybody know where the title "Garage Inc." come from? 134.109.148.66 (talk) 07:53, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Last album featuring Jason[edit]

Why does the page for Garage Inc. and S&M both say each album is the last album to feature Jason Newsted as the bassist for Metallica? Surely two albums released at different times can't both be theblast album to feature him. Hatecopter (talk) 23:20, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
