Blackened Recordings

Metallica and San Francisco Symphony's September 6 & 8, 2019 S&M2 concerts were historic on multiple levels: They served as the grand opening of San Francisco's Chase Center, reunited the band and Symphony for the first time since the 1999 performances captured on the Grammy-winning S&M album, and featured the first-ever symphonic renditions of songs written and released since those original S&M shows.<br/><br/>The sold out shows were rapturously received by the 40,000 fans who traveled from nearly 70 countries, as well as the media: Rolling Stone raved "the group proved that anything was possible," Variety noted an atmosphere "buzzing with excitement," while the Mercury News witnessed "a concert that fans will be talking about for decades to come," and Consequence of Sound hailed "a true celebration of Metallica and their musical prowess." <br/><br/>S&M2 is a landmark release in the Metallica catalogue, both sonically and visually. Produced by Greg Fidelman with James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, the S&M2 live album captures more than two and a half hours of James, Lars, Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo joining forces with the nearly 80-strong SF Symphony, legendary Musical Director of the orchestra Michael Tilson Thomas, and conductor Edwin Outwater.

Det är otroligt att tänka tanken att Metallicas självbetitlade album (i folkmun känt som "The Black Album") har 30 år på nacken. Men det har det, och här är en remastrad version. Detta var bandets femte album och de gick från att vara hjältar i underground-scenen till att bli världens största hårdrocksband.<br/><br/>Albumet "Metallica" inkluderar singlar som "Enter Sandman", "The Unforgiven", "Nothing Else Matters", "Sad But True" och "Wherever I May Roam" och har sålt i över 35 miljoner exemplar.<br/><br/>3CD expanded edition - digipak som släpps med ett alternativt omslag och som också inkluderar demos, rough mixes, inspelningar från replokalen och livespår som tidigare aldrig funnits tillgängliga.
