1983 Metal

Year In Metal

1983

1983. A time when “Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi” was number one at the box office,  the national debt was a meager $195 BILLION (compared to the $31,000 BILLION behemoth it is today), the first mobile phones cost around four grand (which, when adjusted for inflation, would be around $12K today), and Metallica, Pantera, and Slayer had just released their first-new debut albums.
