TMD has unearthed an extremely rare demo recording of “…And Justice For All” by METALLICA. It is not
known exactly when the legendary metal act recorded this demo… but there’s no doubt… it is totally authentic!
You will note on the track that Hetfield sings ‘Nah Nah Nah’ throughout instead of the
actual lyrics for the song. It’s important to understand that Hetfield always writes the melody of a song before the actual completed lyrics. It truly helps you appreciate the genius behind his songwriting.
…And Justice for All was the mighty METALLICA’s breakthrough record and reached #6 in the Billboard charts...Read More

TMD reveals the Holy Grail of heavy metal bass. It’s the isolated master bass track recording of the classic instrumental song “Orion” off METALLICA’s epic Master of Puppets album, the legendary band’s third and final with bassist Cliff Burton – which was released twenty four years ago on March 3, 1986 via Elektra Records and reached #29 on the U.S. Billboard 200 album chart.

Some critics have called Master of Puppets the best he...Read More
