After catching Damage Inc. live in concert a few weeks back, we felt inspired to investigate the vast conglomeration of artists who have performed their own cover versions of songs originally written by the biggest cover band to have ever blessed heavy metal, the mighty METALLICA.
Even though METALLICA have come a long way from their old school “dirty thrash” sound, modern artists continue to create their own interpretations of songs from throughout METALLICA’s vast catalog. Whether it’s completely reimagined with an entirely different arrangement or a faithful, note perfect rendition of the original all the way down to the production nuances, there are endless possibilities as to what you might hear.
Always remember that “you eat and then shoot” because it’s important to “follow the instructions” to ensure things don’t “get out of hand”. Learn why “rolling your R’s” is an important social skill (especially when ordering at certain restaurants), get ready for some “brisket tips”, remain calm anytime you run out of “crème fraiche” or “the triangles are turning into rhombuses” and prepare to activate your laugh wheeze (“assuming we don’t get cancelled”) when you JOIN US as we give a listen to a veritable plethora of METALLICA COVERS.
