Nejprodávanější alba všech dob – Metallica v elitní společnosti

Metal a hard rock jsou v globálních žebříčcích nejprodávanějších alb zastoupeny silněji, než by se mohlo zdát — AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Meat Loaf i Linkin Park tam mají pevné místo. Black Album od Metallicy (1991) se však řadí na 17. místo všech dob s odhadovanými 31 miliony kopií celosvětově — z čehož plyne titul nejprodávanějšího heavy metalového alba v historii.
