Marsha Zazula, who announced Metallica to the world, dies. Marsha Zazula, who contributed to the recognition of many bands such as Megaforce Records record label Metallica, which she founded with her husband Jonny Zazula in 1983, passed away.
Rikki Zazula, the daughter of Marsha and Jonny Zazula couple, announced on social media that her mother died on January 10. “Your love, power, memory and music have changed our lives and will continue to change forever,” Rikki Zazula said in his post. Founded in 1983 by the Zazula couple, Megaforce Records released Metallica’s first two albums, Kill ‘Em All and Ride the Lightning.
After the success of their first two albums, Metallica signed with Elektra, a larger company. Anthrax, Testament, Overkill and Ministry were among the other famous groups in Megaforce. He was famous for his discovery of the Megaforce record label Metallica and Anthrax, founded by the couple Jonny and Marsha Zazula.
The couple, who made a living by selling records in the flea market, made a name for himself as the company that has led the heavy metal movement in the USA over the years. In 1982, the couple acquired a demo from Metallica, an unknown band, and founded Megaforce to listen to the band’s music to large audiences.
The following year, Metallica’s first album, Kill’Em All, was released, and it managed to gain a firm foothold in the American heavy metal market. Metallica members and Anthrax issued a condolence message after the news of the death of Marsha Zazula.
Metallica: Rest in peace, Marsha. Thanks for everything. With love to Jon Zazula and his family. James Hetfield: Marsha Z was the Metal Chief of the East End. She was my mother when my mother was gone. She made great sacrifices so that Metallica could flourish. Thanks Marsha. Lovingly to the Zazula family.
Lars Ulrich: Thanks for making it come true, Marsha … for your support, your encouragement, your advice, your home, feed, and above all for believing that a group of excluded people like us could reach like-minded audiences with your wife Jonny.
Anthrax: We have learned with great sorrow that Marsha Zazula lost her life. He was a true pioneer with Jonny Z. These two changed our lives. It is very difficult to say what a world it would have been without beliefs and devotees towards metal and us. With our love to his family.
