There are metal bands and then there’s Metallica. After over four decades together, and with their new album 72 Seasons topping charts around the world, it’s time to look back on the monumental history of these boundary-smashing metal Messiahs who changed heavy music forever. This RC special rounds up eye-witness accounts from their early days and from the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, exclusive in-depth interviews with collaborators across the years, album-by-album breakdowns, 40 years of rarities plus our mega UK discography. There’s also Cliff Burton’s last UK interview and a look inside the Cliff Burton Museum in Sweden. Grab a copy now to have this all within your hands.
