Slobodan,
Roger is far better than me on music with few exceptions—and Metallica definitely isn't one where I'm better. I know this dates me, but I'm no fan of Metallica. They sound like the music you'd get if you put Alice Cooper in a meatgrinder.
But I was so sure that the autographs on the album are forgeries, and so respect Roger's opinions, that I spent a good half-hour this evening reviewing early-to-mid 1980s Metallica exemplars. I am still absolutely, positively sure that they are not real.
Roger has over 30 years of music autograph knowledge, and is as careful with his online opinions as he is on ones he gives when he sees the autograph in-person. They're not "quick opinions." He spends the time needed on every online submission to make sure he's confident with his decision. The main difference between Roger's online opinion and one where the autograph is physically sent to him is that he can confirm things that can only be determined or confirmed in person.
This is one of the rare times when I'd resubmit the piece to Roger and ask him to take a fresh look.
Here's your photo with the blank top and bottom cropped out to make it larger:

The ink doesn't make sense for me from the 80s . I agree with Steve. Take it slow and try Beckett or jsa or psa also see what they say.

I'd resubmit it to Roger and decide whether to get other opinions once he gives his. And I agree, take it slow.

Very different to me in many, many ways. I'd avoid.

Other opinions? Perhaps posting the other signatures in this way will garner more opinions still.

I just don't see it - there are more differences than similarities here IMO It appears less ink where there should be more, baseline, angles of incidence, form, speed etc. You have more period exemplars to post?
