METALLICA - Hardwired... To Self-Destruct & Black Album Remaster (Sept 2021)

Hetfield a bataillé avec ses problèmes de drogue et suivi une nouvelle cure de désintox en septembre 2019.

Quelle galère. La drogue, c'est cher payé. Saloperie, comme dirait l'doc.

drogue ou alcool?

Pietro a écrit:C'est moi ou c'est chiant ?  

Effectivement c'est une tres pauvre reprise, pas un patch sur l'original. Ils ont essaye de la reprendre telle quelle, sans lui donner une nouvelle identite et du coup c'est bien naze.

Je vous trouve bien bien dur.

Ils la reprennent à leur façon mais sans la dénaturer, il y'a un vrai effort d’interprétation de la part d'Hetfield, et surtout on retrouve cette vibe purement Folk américain, très western. Ce n'est pas du tout un morceau facile niveau interprétation vocale surtout depuis qu'Eric Burdon a placé la barre très très haute, il faut lui donner de l'âme et je trouve que c'est quelque chose qu'Hetfield réussi bien (et ça il le doit peut-être à son côté torturé). Et Whammett nous fait un solo très propre, dans son style habituel mais qui ne jure pas. Quand on remet ça dans le contexte (une reprise dans le cadre d'un concert caritatif), je trouve ça tout à fait honorable.

Grosse, très grosse réédition du Black Album:

METALLICA Announces 30th-Anniversary Expanded Edition Of 'Black' Album



METALLICA marks the 30th anniversary of its self-titled fifth album — also known as "The Black Album" — with two landmark releases, both out September 10 on the band's own Blackened Recordings.

The Black Album is one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed records of all time. Its 1991 release not only gave METALLICA its first No. 1 album in no fewer than 10 countries, including a four-week run at No. 1 in the U.S., its unrelenting series of singles — "Enter Sandman", "The Unforgiven", "Nothing Else Matters", "Wherever I May Roam" and "Sad But True" — fueled the band's rise to stadium headlining, radio and MTV dominating household name status. The album's reception from the press was similarly charged, building over the years from the top 10 of the 1991 Village Voice Pazz & Jop national critics poll to becoming a constant presence in the likes of Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time. The album's impact and relevance continue to grow — as proven by one indisputable fact: The Black Album remains unchallenged as the best-selling album in the history of Nielsen SoundScan, outselling every release in every genre over the past 30 years.

To commemorate its 30th anniversary, the Grammy-winning, 16-times-platinum-certified Black Album is receiving its definitive re-release. Remastered for ultimate sound quality, The Black Album remaster will be available in multiple configurations including 180-gram double vinyl LP, standard CD and 3 CD expanded edition, digital, and limited edition deluxe box set (containing the album remastered on 180-gram 2LP, a picture disc, three live LPs, 14 CDs (containing rough mixes, demos, interviews, live shows), 6 DVDs (containing outtakes, behind the scenes, official videos, live shows), a 120-page hardcover book, four tour laminates, three lithos, three guitar picks, a METALLICA lanyard, a folder with lyric sheets, and a download card).

Much more than a mere tribute album, "The Metallica Blacklist" celebrates the enduring influence of this musical milestone with one of the most ambitious projects ever conceived by the METALLICA team: An unprecedented 50+ artists spanning an unbelievably vast range of genres, generations, cultures, continents and more, each contributing a unique interpretation of their favorite Black Album cut.

"The Metallica Blacklist" offers up new dimensions of the record whose gravitational pull first drew the mainstream to METALLICA — and provides new insights into the universal and timeless appeal that kept it there: the boundary-smashing influence these 12 songs have had on fans and musicians of all stripes. "The Metallica Blacklist"'s 53 tracks find singer songwriters, country artists, electronic and hip hop artists sharing their love of these songs alongside punk rockers, indie darlings, icons of rock, metal, world music and many, many more… and for 50+ good causes: Profits will be divided evenly between charities of the artist's choice and METALLICA's All Within My Hands foundation.

"The Metallica Blacklist" is a fitting and limitless homage, one that features bands who've shared stages with METALLICA alongside artists who are younger than the original album. It's a truly staggering, at times mystifying assemblage of musicians, dozens of whom have little to nothing in common other than the shared passion for the music that's united them for this album: 1 Album. 12 Songs. 53 Artists. Unlimited Possibilities.

"The Metallica Blacklist" will be available in formats including digital, four-CD and a limited-edition seven-LP vinyl pressing. Pre-orders will instantly receive multi-platinum selling recording artist, songwriter, philanthropist and trailblazer Miley Cyrus's version of "Nothing Else Matters" featuring Andrew Watt, Elton John, Yo-Yo Ma, Robert Trujillo and Chad Smith, and Colombian-born rock/pop superstar, and winner of 20+ Grammy and Latin Music Grammy Awards Juanes's interpretation of "Enter Sandman".

All profits from "The Metallica Blacklist" will be split evenly between the All Within My Hands foundation and 50+ charities chosen by the artists who play on the album. All Within My Hands was founded by the band in 2017 as a way for the entire METALLICA family to give back to communities that have supported the band by supporting workforce education, the fight against hunger, and other critical local services.

Back in 2017, METALLICA announced that it was preparing deluxe remastered versions of its "…And Justice For All" (1988) and "Metallica" (1991) albums and reached out to its hardcore fans for help to get content for the new editions. "…And Justice For All" has since been reissued for its 30th anniversary in 2018.

METALLICA's self-titled LP in 2014 became the first album to sell 16 million copies since Nielsen SoundScan started tracking sales in 1991.

"Metallica" was already certified 16 times platinum on December 13, 2012 by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association Of America) for shipments in excess of 16 million copies in the U.S.

The album in 2009 surpassed SHANIA TWAIN's 1997 record, "Come On Over", as the best-selling CD of the SoundScan era.

"Metallica" was the first of four collaborations with producer Bob Rock, with whom the band clashed throughout the recording of the disc.

METALLICA performed "the black album" in its entirety at a number of European festivals in 2012.

Il fallait s'y attendre. Les quadras/quinquas embourgeoisés et nostalgiques ne seront que trop heureux de faire péter l'American Express.

J'aime bien la version avec Miley Cyrus.
de rien.
j'espère qu'elle sera au HF avec eux

il y a 10 ans Painy et moi même courrions comme des dératés pour le seul et unique Big Four à la française. ça valait bien un petit post.
Concert énormeeeuuuu avec "Hit the light" et "Master of Puppets" en ouverture.    

Super souvenir ! Merci S1pho de me l'avoir rappelé. Et en effet les Mets étaient en grande forme ce soir-là.

Parmi les innombrables reprises présentes sur la réédition du Black Album il y a Volbeat:

Réappropriation tout en respectant la version originale : pour moi c'est une très bonne reprise (avec un chanteur comme Poulsen, ça facilite les choses, d'autant que l'intérêt de Don't tread on me réside essentiellement dans les lignes de chant).

Enter Sandman par Ghost :

Au fait : METALLICA's KIRK HAMMETT To Release 'Portals' Solo Instrumental EP

Une seule question à quand leur prochain album ? C'est annoncé pour cette année ? Mais quand  fin d'année? Affaire à suivre

Même si le groupe fut mon préféré pendant de longues années, je n'en attends plus rien malheureusement.

Considérant qu'à part le perturbant Saint Anger, le dernier album valable du groupe remonte à 1988, il y a 34 ans, j'pense aussi qu'il ne faut pas trop en attendre grand chose.

Le parcours de ce groupe est vraiment incroyable, je trouve. Mais bon...

Pareil. Il est, comme Opeth, Dream Theater, POS ... un groupe de mon passé. Leur actualité ne m'intéresse plus.

J'aime toujours autant les 2 derniers albums (non, je n'inclus pas Lulu). Je mettrais sans problème "Spit out the bone" dans un top 10 des meilleurs morceaux du groupe. Après ils sont vraiment peu productifs, mais bon ce n'est pas forcément un mal.

Premier extrait :

Le mec, il compose rien chez Metallica depuis 30 ans, et le jour où il se sort enfin les doigts pour sortir un simple EP, il trouve moyen de te proposer une grosse repompe de Maiden dès le premier extrait...

Ouais...

Y a un clip :

Un poil à la bourre par rapport à la sortie de l'album, Metallica vient de publier une "lyric video" animée de Master of Puppets.

A moins qu'Eddie Munson n'y soit pour quelque chose... ?
