]]> Metallica will be returning later this month for a series of drive-in concerts in North America.

The band will be partnering with Encore Drive-In Nights series to put on shows for those who are taking advantage of the classic drive-in outdoor theater trend in the U.S. And Canada. On August 29, their live concert will be screened across outdoor theaters.

The concert will not be a replay of one their old shows. They will be playing near the band’s home in Northern California. The show will be aired across drive-in movie theaters in North America and will include footage from the band’s career.

The official website description reads, “METALLICA will be the first rock band to be featured in the Encore Drive-In Nights series, with a full set airing at hundreds of drive-ins across the United States and Canada on Saturday, August 29. Shot especially for this one-night-only event, the band’s first show of 2020 will go down as one of the most unique and memorable METALLICA experiences of all time. The event will also include a special guest performance by Three Days Grace.”

Tickets are purchased per car rather than per person. This means that you and five friends can experience Metallica’s return to the stage for the cost of one ticket. You can buy tickets here.

]]> They are one of the biggest bands in the world, having sold millions of albums, and toured countless times over a career spanning four decades. They’ve branched out with various merchandise and even a Beer label. In short, Metallica’s place in Rock history is ensured. But even the band members could not foresee the latest addition to their accolades. 

Researchers at Ghent University in Belgium have discovered a new worm-like, eyeless sea creature who lives in the Clarion Clipperton Zone off the coast of Hawaii, at depths where the pressure is 400 times greater than that of the Earth’s atmosphere, and decided  to name it: The Macrostylis metallicola, after the band.

The band was, of course, happy for the honor. “We’ve played on all seven continents, made it into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and now… we’re a crustacean!” they wrote on Instagram to announce the news.

“Senckenberg researcher Dr. Torben Riehl and Dr. Bart De Smet of Ghent University in Belgium have discovered a new crustacean species in the depths of the northern Pacifica Ocean and decided to name it after some rock band… Welcome to our world Macrostylis metallicola!”

We’ve played on all seven continents, made it into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and now… we’re a crustacean! Senckenberg researcher Dr. Torben Riehl and Dr. Bart De Smet of Ghent University in Belgium have discovered a new crustacean species in the depths of the northern Pacifica Ocean and decided to name it after some rock band… Welcome to our world Macrostylis metallicola! First of all, stellar name Dr. Riehl. Second, what an honor! Not only did Dr. Riehn name his discovery after a band as he has been a fan since childhood, The Thing That Should Not Be has a few things in common with us. The worm-like creature dwells in complete darkness, has no eyes, and is colorless. Talk about Blackened! It also lives amongst metallic nodules containing cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel, and rare-earth elements. So it basically lives in a rock stadium? Now that’s one metal crustacean! You just never know what you’ll find lurking beneath the sea. Art by @anyfranksz

]]> More than 30 years have passed since Metallica’s release of …And Justice for All and the debate over the lack of bass in its mix is still going on.

Recently, the band’s frontman and lead singer James Hetfield gave an interview to fan magazine So What! and defended the band’s choice.

The singer denied the claim that turning the bass down was some sort of hazing towards then-newcomer bass player Jason Newsted and claimed the band just tried to get the best sound possible.

“The goal was to have the album sound f***g tight,” said Hetfield. “We wanted the snare, we wanted the guitar, we wanted everything up front and in your face and really tight. And we thought we got it.”

He admitted however that the band was fatigued at the time and that the constant touring and recording may have played a part in the album’s sound.

“We’re turning the high end up more and more and more and all of a sudden, low end’s gone,” he said.

Hetfield also reiterated the band’s refusal to remix the album, saying that it would be like changing history and that there in nothing to apologize about the album the way it is now.
