Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett has shared a new reading of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven.” You can check that out below. The band commented:

“Just in time for Halloween, Kirk Hammett lends his voice to one of the most haunting poems ever written: Edgar Allan Poe‘s ‘The Raven.’ A lifelong devotee of horror, Kirk has spent decades collecting the art, posters, and artifacts of the genre’s golden age. Here he turns to the source, reading Poe‘s 1845 masterpiece about a grieving man, a midnight visitor, and a single word that won’t stop knocking. Pour something dark, turn the lights down, and listen.”
