Biografie:

James Alan Hetfield (* 3. August 1963 in Downey, Kalifornien) ist ein US-amerikanischer Musiker. Er ist bekannt als Leadsänger, Rhythmusgitarrist und einer der Songwriter der Metal-Band Metallica, die er 1981 mitgründete. Im Alter von neun Jahren nahm James Hetfield Klavierstunden. Dann fing er an, auf dem Schlagzeug seines älteren Bruders David zu spielen, bevor er die Gitarre für sich entdeckte. Mit der neu entdeckten Liebe zur Gitarre und der Band Obsession setzte sich Hetfield das Ziel, Rockstar zu werden. Die Band bestand aus den Veloz-Brüdern an Bass und Schlagzeug und Jim Arnold ebenfalls an der Gitarre. Seine Freunde Ron McGovney und Dave Marrs wurden die Techniker der Band. Nach dem Umzug nach Brea ging James auf die dortige Highschool. Dort lernte er den Schlagzeuger Jim Mulligan und den Gitarristen Hugh Tanner kennen. Mit ihnen gründete er seine zweite Band Phantom Lord. Nachdem er die Highschool abgeschlossen hatte, ging James zurück nach Downey, wo er mit Ron McGovney zusammenzog. James brachte Ron das Bassspielen bei und überredete ihn, bei Phantom Lord einzusteigen. Kurz darauf wurde Phantom Lord in Leather Charm umbenannt. Mit der Gruppe nahm James sein erstes Demo auf. Schließlich begann sich die Band langsam aufzulösen, nachdem Schlagzeuger Mulligan ausstieg. Zu dieser Zeit schaltete der dänische Schlagzeuger Lars Ulrich 1981 eine Zeitungsanzeige, um Bandmitglieder zu finden. Hetfield war der einzige, der sich auf diese Anzeige meldete. Jedoch konnte man sich nicht über eine Band-Gründung einigen. Erst ein Jahr später kamen die beiden wieder zusammen, als Ulrich auf einen Band-Zusammenschluss drängte. Schließlich gründeten sie die Band Metallica. Während der Aufnahmen für das Album St. Anger ab 2002 ließ sich Hetfield in eine Reha-Klinik einweisen, um seine Alkoholsucht behandeln zu lassen. Er wurde nach elf Monaten aus der Klinik entlassen und arbeitete weiter am Album. Hetfield war nach eigenen Angaben trocken und auch entschlossen, dies zu bleiben. Diese Phase wurde in dem Dokumentarfilm Metallica: Some Kind of Monster festgehalten. 2019 musste eine geplante Tournee nach Australien und Neuseeland abgesagt werden, da Hetfield einen Rückfall erlitten hatte und sich in Behandlung begeben musste. Künstlerisch beeinflussten ihn unter anderen Black Sabbath, Ted Nugent, The Misfits, Diamond Head, Rush, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Angel Witch und Motörhead.
