Metallica performed their 1983 classic, “The Four Horsemen”, at the Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg, Germany on March 29, and the band are sharing professional footage from the event.
The tune appeared on the group’s debut album, “Kill ‘Em All”, which didn’t appear on the US Billboard 200 chart until three years later, where it peaked at No. 66 on its way to eventually selling 3 million copies Stateside.
Currently playing arena dates across Europe in support of their tenth album, “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct”, Metallica will bring their 2018 indoor show to North America this fall.
The group continue their reissue series with the April 13 release of their 1987 collection, "The $5.98 EP – Garage Days Re-Revisited."
Out-of-print and available for the first time in decades, the 5-track set sees the band deliver covers of some of their primary influences, including Diamond Head, Misfits and Budgie.
Upon its original release, the EP peaked at No. 28 on the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than a million copies in the country.
Metallica confirms the 2018 reissue will be available in a variety of formats.
“Keeping with our 80's theme,” says the band, “the remastered EP will not only be released as a CD and download, but also as several vinyl versions including a picture disc, as a cassette, and in a longbox (you youngsters can search the web for that term!).”
