Metallica will be releasing a ten year anniversary two disc Blu-Ray and DVD of their out of print, groundbreaking movie 'Some kind of Monster' on November 24th on Blackened Recordings via Virgin / EMI. Originally released on July 9th 2004 Metallica's 'Some kind of Monster' follows the band through three of the most turbulent years in their over three decade long career.
It gives viewers an incredibly raw and intimate look into the live and psyches of the members of one of the most successful Rock bands in music history as they battle their way through addiction, domestic life, backlash from their fans and near total disintegration during the making of their 'St. Anger' album. The documentary directed by the award winning team of Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky (Brother's Keeper, Paraise Lost 1-3), won the 'Independent Spirit' award for best documentary feature. The ten year anniversary release marks the first time Metallica's 'Some kind of Monster' will be available digitally and via Video on Demand.
The updated version will contain an additional bonus feature Metallica's 'This monster Lives' a twenty five minute follow up piece filmed at Toronto International Film Festival 2013 during the release of the band's second film Metallica's 'Through the Never' which features interview footage with the band and Berlinger and Sinofsky that looks at the decade since the release of the documentary film.
In more Metallica news on November 28th the band will be releasing a limited edition etched 12' vinyl for the single 'Lords of Summer'. The A-Side will feature the 'First Pass' studio version as well as a previously unreleased live version recorded in Europe this summer at the Rock in Rome Sonisphere Festival.
