FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

METALLICA READIES "MONSTER" EP RELEASE ON JULY 13

PACKAGE COINCIDES WITH THE "METALLICA: SOME KIND OF MONSTER" DOCUMENTARY FILM OPENING JULY 9 / DISC ALSO AVAILABLE AS UNIQUE CD+T

BAND TO CONTINUE THE "MADLY IN ANGER WITH THE WORLD" TOUR ON AUGUST 16

In conjunction with the July 9, 2004 opening of the Metallica documentary film "Metallica: Some Kind Of Monster," Elektra Records will issue a deluxe CD+T package of the same name.

The package, set for release on July 13, will feature six live Metallica classics as well as two versions of the title-track, one drawn from Metallica's 2003 album St. Anger plus a fully remixed and edited version for this disc by famed producer Bob Rock. Also included in the package is a limited edition compressed T-shirt in large or extra-large sizes, emblazoned with the film's movie poster art across the chest. Double extra-large sizes will be available online at metallica.com. The disc is also available at retail outlets without the T-shirt.

The six live tracks on the disc are: "The Four Horsemen," "Damage, Inc.," "Leper Messiah," "Motorbreath," "Ride The Lightning" and "Hit The Lights," and were recorded June 11, 2003 in Paris, France. The disc will also be enhanced with the movie's theatrical trailer, as well as a variation of the film's trailer the band has been previewing during their most recent concert trek. Directed by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky (Brothers Keeper, Paradise Lost), "Metallica: Some Kind of Monster" offers a revealing behind-the-scenes look at Metallica as they confront personal demons and their relationships with each other.

Said Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly of the film, "Epic storytelling...Metallica: Some Kind Of Monster is one of the most revelatory rock portraits ever made." Details magazine said the film is "An instant and incendiary classic." Sharon Waxman of the New York Times gushed the that film is, "entertaining, moving and historically significant...(it) chronicles the intimate emotions of the most successful heavy metal band of all time."

anyone else notice that on the Summer Sanitarium Tour/any other show they play, they hardly ever play anything off of St. Anger? Except for like 2 or 3 tracks.

Ashamed? :whistle:
