Power Metal was a demo recorded sometime in April 1982. Although the demo was never officially released, it was given the bootleg name "Power Metal" and contained four original songs by Metallica. It contained "The Mechanix", the first song written for the band by Dave Mustaine, and "Motorbreath", which was written solely by James Hetfield. It was also recorded in Ron's garage.
Track listing 1. "Hit the Lights" - 4:18
2. "Jump in the Fire" - 3:55
3. "The Mechanix" - 4:47
4. "Motorbreath" - 3:23
Personnel * James Hetfield - vocals, rhythm guitar * Dave Mustaine - lead guitar, backing vocals * Ron McGovney - bass guitar * Lars Ulrich - drums
Note: "The Mechanix" was the original version that later would be called "The Four Horsemen". Mustaine increased the pace from the original version of the song, renamed it simply "Mechanix", and included it on the first Megadeth album, Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good!.
