James Hetfield's response to this question is brilliant. Being and staying grateful for what you have is what makes you feel comfortable in all parts of your life.

This is what danger sounded like in '79. Bottoms Up!

"They got signed on their talent, on their original material, but also on their looks. They looked like Robert Plant and Jimmy Page." The story of the album that rescued rock'n'roll from the darkness and built a brighter future loudersound.com/music/albums/v…

Today marks the 48th anniversary of Van Halen’s debut album. Released in 1978, it immediately made a mark as one of rock’s strongest debuts...🔥🎸

Van Halen released their self-titled debut album on this day in 1978. The album was monumental, as it single-handedly reshaped the landscape of hard rock by introducing a new standard of guitar virtuosity and injecting the genre with a high-energy, arena-ready sound.

A lot can change in 48 years. But not this album. #VanHalen's debut was released on February 10th, 1978. Do you remember your first time?

🎸♾️❤️
