Speaking of James Hetfield, here he is! Hetfield comes from Downey, CA, and is an absolute guitar beast. Hetfield is basically credited with creating the sound of ‘speed metal,’ creating a spirit of rage that is completely unparalleled in the music industry.

Pete Townshend
Townshend is one of the most influential rock bands of all time, co-founding The Who. Shortly after World War II, he wrote in his biography about growing up in London, “I wasn’t trying to play beautiful music. I was confronting my audience with the awful, visceral sound of what we all knew was the single absolute of our frail existence—one day an airplane would carry the bomb that would destroy us all in a flash. It could happen at any time.”
