Birth
School
Metallica
Deathis
the
definitive
story
of
the
most
significant
rock
band
since
Led
Zeppelin,
covering
the
band's
formation
up
to
their
breakthrough
eponymous
fifth
album,
aka
"The
Black
Album."
The
intense
and
sometimes
fraught
relationship
between
aloof-yet-simmering
singer,
chief
lyricist,
and
rhythm
guitarist
James
Hetfield
and
the
outspoken
and
ambitious
drummer
Lars
Ulrich
is
the
saga's
emotional
core.
Their
earliest
years
saw
the
release
of
three
unimpeachable
classics
(Kill
'Em
All,Ride
the
Lightning,
andMaster
of
Puppets),
but
it
was
the
breakthrough
of...And
Justice
for
Allthat
rent
the
fabric
of
the
mainstream,
hitting
the
top
of
the
charts
without
benefit
of
radio
airplay
or
the
then-crucial
presence
on
MTV.
And
in
1991,
with
the
release
of
"The
Black
Album,"
Metallica
finally
hit
the
next
level
with
five
hit
singles
and
their
first
album
atop
theBillboardcharts.

Recenzii
“Brannigan
and
Winwood
dig
deep
into
the
band
members''
formative
years…As
former
editor
of
Kerrang!,
Britain's
popular
heavy
metal
magazine,
Brannigan
had
the
opportunity
to
interview
a
number
of
those
in
Metallica's
orbit
over
the
years,
this
special
access
and
familiarity
adds
breadth
to
the
book.
This
objective
study
is
a
refreshing
approach
to
the
traditional
music
biography.
Even
the
most
knowledgeable
fans
will
eagerly
await
the
second
volume.”
Kirkus Reviews, 12/1/13
“[An] ambitious undertaking…The authors' enthusiasm for their subject is infectious. They're well-placed to show how Metallica learned from their British New Wave of heavy-metal forebears and, in true Oedipal fashion, killed the fathers to create something new. For metal heads and most fans of hard rock.”
Mojo, December 2013
“It's hard to imagine the tale of San Francisco metal behemoths Metallica being told more authoritatively than it is here…Gripping reading.”

“Introduces us to the boys who went on to be metal kings…[Brannigan and Winwood] have worked closely with the band over the years, and it shows, both in the access they've gained, the anecdotes they witnessed first-hand and the warmth they afford their subjects. No stone is left unturned as the band's insane life is meticulously researched.”
Q Magazine, October 2013
“Roach shows how thoroughly she has researched her subject…while also giving modern readers something to think about in our own days of social and political witch hunts. Six Women of Salem…will provide a greater sense of the real-world lives of those who engaged in and were victimized by those events.”
Metal Hammer
“The Metallica story has been told many times before, but seldom as entertainingly or as smartly as this…Ian Winwood and Paul Brannigan's vivid prose makes this well-worn saga seem somehow fresh and fascinating again.”
