Metal Anarchy

With Metallica already planning to release 27 live albums, they have now announced that the will be re-releasing their documentary, Some Kind Of Monster, on Blu-Ray/DVD, on November 24.

Here’s what the band said about that:

“The film (Some Kind Of Monster) will be available digitally and via Video On Demand for the very first time and for those of you who still like to have one to hold in your hands, there will be two-disc Blu-Ray and DVD sets at your favorite retail outlets and in the Metallica.com store.

A lot has happened since 2004 and we’ll bring you up to speed by including the feature “Metallica: This Monster Lives,” a 25-minute follow-up piece filmed at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2013 during the release of our second film, Metallica Through the Never. It includes interview footage with us along with directors Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky and looks at the decade since the original release of the film. This feature along with the full film and all the extras from the original 2005 DVD release will be included on the Blu-ray and DVD. This is also that the first time the film will be available on Blu-ray. “Metallica: This Monster Lives” will also be available along with the original film on the digital releases.”

The band also announced that they will be releasing a limited edition vinyl, containing their latest single “Lords Of Summer.” This will be released November 28, for Black Friday.

Here’s what the band said about that:

“The limited edition 12-inch vinyl will include the “First Pass” (studio) version on side A as well as a live version recorded at the Rock In Rome Sonisphere Festival on July 1, 2014. Side B will feature a laser etching of our “M” logo… it won’t play on your turntable, but it looks pretty damn cool!”
