In a recent interview on 'The Shawn Ryan Show,' Dave Mustaine accused Metallica of stealing the iconic riff from their hit 'Enter Sandman' from the band Excel's song 'Tapping Into the Emotional Void.' Mustaine reiterated previous comparisons made over the years and reflected on his own dismissal from Metallica. He expressed ongoing resentment about not receiving credit for various riffs he contributed to their early works, further emphasizing his longstanding tensions with his former band and its members, particularly with his replacement Kirk Hammett.
I made sure not to ever say that I quit, because I wanted people to know that I was unfairly dismissed and that I didn't give a shit.
Look up the band Excel right now. Look up their song, I think it's something 'Into the Unknown.' Pretty similar.
At the time, I was really mad and I didn't wanna forgive them for what they did.
You listen to the riffs, you know they're my riffs.
