Metallica will release “S&M2”, a new live package with the San Francisco Symphony, on August 28.
The multi-format packages present material from the September 6 and September 8 concerts last fall as the pairing officially opened the new Chase Center in San Francisco, CA; the events also marked the 20th Anniversary of their 1999 live performance recording “S&M.”
Produced by Greg Fidelman with James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, the “S&M2” live album captures more than two and a half hours of Metallica joining forces with the nearly 80-strong SF Symphony, legendary Musical Director of the orchestra Michael Tilson Thomas, and conductor Edwin Outwater.
“S&M2” will be available in a variety of configurations, ranging from a digital album on all leading streaming outlets, to 4LP vinyl, 2CD, DVD and Blu-ray versions, to a limited edition color vinyl 4LP + 2CD + Blu-ray Deluxe Box featuring sheet music, guitar picks, poster and more, all the way up to a Metallica.com exclusive Super Deluxe Box, limited to 500 copies, each featuring actual sheet music used by the Symphony during the shows and hand-signed by all four band members (in addition to including everything in the Deluxe Box).
The concert film is a brand-new edit done by Joe Hutching (Through The Never) and both the audio and visuals have been taken to the next level from the October 2019 theatrical version that played in over 3,700 cinemas worldwide
“S&M2” is being previewed with an official video trailer and live footage of “All Within My Hands” and “Nothing Else Matters.”
