Did Lars help Megadeth for their Risk album?
When asked “Were you at all influenced by Metallica’s evolution from thrash metal warhorses to experimental southern metal boogie-boys?” Megadeth leader Dave Mustaine responded: “Maybe a little bit. The title of the record came from a comment Lars Ulrich made to the press about how he wished I would take more risks. And I said in return, If you mean french kissing my guitar player, I’m not interested. Then I thought about it, and I decided that might be a good name for the record. But Lars’ comment only mattered as far as considering a title. I think these songs were probably in the can long before Load and Reload ever came out. For example, the lyric to “Breadline” is about six years old.” Very interesting stuff….
