The Metallica Blacklist
I listened to a shitload of Black Album covers so you don't have to.
Review by RaduP ››
S&M 2
At the end of S&M, Lars tells the audience "same time, next year". Ultimately, it took Metallica 20 years to collaborate with the San Francisco Symphony orchestra again; how does the fusion stand up second time around?

Is Metallica back? Nah. Is Metallica less gone? Yeah, sure.

Lulu [Collaboration]
2.0
Some people righteously claim that this is not a real Metallica release and thus it can't be viewed as such. I agree. Metallica decided to co-operate with Lou Reed in his interpretation of Alban Berg's opera based on Frank Wedekind's plays...
