THRASHERS BY NAME -- STREET PUNK-METAL ASSASSINS IN ATTITUDE.

PIC(S) INFO: Mega-spotlight on late, great bassist Cliff Burton and rhythm guitarist/vocalist James Hetfield of American thrash metal band METALLICA, performing live at the Breaking Sound Festival at Le Bourget Airport outside of Paris, France, on August 29, 1984. 📸: Pete Cronin (I believe he took all of these).

Man, these took a while to track down, and I'll bet there's even more out there that probably haven't even been published yet. I also had to double-check that they were all different, too, seeing as they're multiple shots of just Cliff & James. Stay HEAVY!!
