METALLICA – To Release “Live at Grimey’s” EP

Mark your calendar for “Live at Grimey’s” due out on 11/26. Here’s a message on this forthcoming release from the mighty METALLICA:

“Are you sick of us yet? We sure are!! However, we’re here again to tell you about one more release, this one supporting our continued beating of the drums for independent record stores across the country with an exclusive EP available only through the network of approximately 700 U.S. retailers who support Record Store Day. We were honored to be part of the first ever annual event celebrating independently owned records stores, aka Record Store Day, with an in-store at Rasputin Music in Mountain View, CA on April 19, 2008 and we’re very proud to be a part of another special event with our friends at independent retail.

The EP includes the nine songs we played the afternoon of June 12, 2008 in the basement at one of the coolest record stores in the nation, Grimey’s in Nashville, TN, and is part of the series of “Live At Grimey’s” releases. How did this show come about? In late Spring of 2008 while we were finishing up “Death Magnetic,” we were also having fun playing a few shows including the Bonnarroo Festival in Manchester, TN. As fans of classic old school record stores, we knew we just had to visit Grimey’s and they were kind enough to invite us to play in their “basement” club for Metallica Fan Club members and a few friends. As we always do, we recorded the show… and now it comes to you on CD and 10″ vinyl in a gatefold jacket on “Black Friday,” November 26.

Support your local record store… there’s a complete list of stores who will be carrying “Live At Grimey’s” here: MyMetalClub.com. The EP will also be available on Metallica.com and MetClub.com.”
