The 1975 Frontman Names THIS Band As His Worst Band of All Time

The 1975 frontman Matty Healy finally named his least favorite band.

With the success of "Stranger Things," Healy said that he fell in love with Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" when it played in the series. But he declared that "Master of Puppets" hitmaker, Metallica, is not the best band ever.

In the "Stranger Things" Season 4 finale, the series played the hit 1986 song that led the band to enter the charts again. It was included in a scene in which Eddie Munson, a metalhead and club leader of Dungeons and Dragons Hellfire, played the song on guitar to save his friends from Upside Down monsters.

In an interview with Pitchfork, Healy said he hates Metallica and that it is his worst band of all time.

Instead of Metallica, he revealed to The Face the best post-hardcore and metalcore musicians.

"I was never into Metallica, I liked Slayer and bands like that. Stuff that I was into was bands like Converge, Glassjaw, the more post-hardcore kind of stuff. I was super into Poison the Well and, I mean, Refused are probably my favorite heavy metal band of all time, that was a big deal for me," he said.

Healy is not the only one who expressed disapproval of the band.

When Metallica landed No. 1 sports on different charts after the "Stranger Things" feature, a TikTok user said that the band is only for all fake "Stranger Things" fans.

In response to it, the rock band roasted the hater and said that everyone is welcome in Metallica.

Metallica's Recent Success Explored

Although Healy said Metallica is his worst band, it did not stop it from scoring milestones with "Master of Puppets."

In data shared by Billboard, it showed that the on-demand US audio streams jumped to 400 percent - from 224,000 on June 30 to 1.11 million streams after "Stranger Things" episodes were released.

The band, which was formed in 1981, also got praise from producer Bob Rock. He said that the band "stretched the boundaries" on Load and Reload, making it became the biggest group in the genre's entire history.

Rock told Metal Hammer that Metallica has the capacity to push the members as far as possible without feeling afraid.

After the band sold 16 million copies of "The Black Album" in the US alone, it felt the power to stretch out even more.
