Book Description
'A flaming juggernaut of heavy-metal biog' GUARDIAN 'This is the definitive account of heavy metal's biggest band of all' CLASSIC ROCK 'Truly enlightening' ROCK SOUND 'ENTER NIGHT, Mick Wall's biography of Metallica confirms this grizzled veteran to be as engaged and waspishly authoritative a chronicler of metal's most hirsute behemoths as Barry Miles has been for the Beats' INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY Mick Wall moves on from Led Zeppelin to produce a definitive doorstop on Metallica. Alongside contemporaries Slayer, Megadeath and Anthrax, Metallica came to prominence in the eighties as one of the 'big four' of thrash metal. Metallica were to thrash, though, what the Sex Pistols were to punk. Nearly thirty years on, their tale is one of alcohol, rule breaking and tragically early death. But allied to that are colossal sales figures for their records -- they are the fifth-highest selling recording artists of all time - and members with backgrounds that touch on jazz and classical music. Metallica, in fact, have garnered more critical acclaim than any heavy rock band since Led Zeppelin. Fresh from the critical and commercial success of WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH, Mick Wall takes a similar informed look at the band, a group he has known on and off since their formation in 1981.

Into the Black
Author: Paul Brannigan
Publisher: Da Capo Press
ISBN: 0306821893
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
Into the Black begins on the eve of the release of Metallica's massive breakthrough with the eponymous LP that became known as "The Black Album." Suddenly, at the dawn of the '90s, Metallica was no longer the biggest thrash metal band in the world-they were the biggest rock band in the world, period. But with such enormous success came new challenges, as Metallica ran the risk of alienating their original fan base. They were beset by controversy over musical stylistic shifts, supposed concessions to the mainstream, even their choice of haircuts. During this transformative era, journalists Paul Brannigan and Ian Winwood had unprecedented access to Metallica. They accompanied the band on tour and joined them in the studio, getting exhilarating eyewitness views into the belly of the beast. Together they amassed over 75 hours of interview material, much of it never in print before now. Through changes both musical and personal, Metallica struggled to maintain their identity and remain a viable creative force. A ferocious battle with the file-sharing company Napster saw the quartet attract the worst PR of their career. Meanwhile, communication breakdowns between James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Jason Newsted (who would leave the band in 2001) led to fierce internal arguments, as laid bare in the controversial documentary Some Kind of Monster. At the end of the century, Metallica had appeared to be a band teetering on the brink of self-destruction, but through setbacks and struggles they endured and thrived. From Load, Reload, and Garage, Inc. to the stunning return to form in Death Magnetic and the massive tours that accompanied them-including the real story behind the Big Four shows-Into the Black takes readers inside the heart of Metallica and concludes the saga of one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
The technicians were sitting in front of the control panel to the main computer when they heard it. Deep in the underground nuclear facility three explosions ripped through the complex, tossing everyone violently against their desks and to the floor. The printer switched on and sheets of paper with automated-typed words spewed out at an incredible rate. A man ran to the printer and grabbed the papers. "What do they read?" Dr. Balim asked. There was a touch of desperation in his tone. The technician swallowed the growing lump in his throat and slowly raised his eyes to meet the doctor. "The Emergency Core-Coolant System has shut down!" The sudden gasp from those in the room was deafening. "What is going on here?" Colonel Benghazi asked. "My God...It's him," said Captain Mourak, who was standing behind him. "Can you be more specific?" Colonel Benghazi was becoming impatient. "It's the saboteur, you fool!" At Iran's Bushehr Nuclear Research Facility the countdown to nuclear disaster begins when the C.I.A.'s top saboteur codenamed: Sandman strikes a devastating blow. Deep in the underground facility a raging fire has knocked out the coolant system and threatens a reactor core meltdown. To save the reactor the Iranians must get the coolant back in operation...But the Sandman has barricaded himself in the alternate secondary control room to prevent that from happening...And so a brilliant army officer takes charge and is prepared to do whatever it takes to stave off disaster. The situation quickly becomes a match of wits as the Sandman defends himself in deadly gunfights against soldiers trying to retake the control room...And as the clock ticks he not only loses time to make good his escape, but the temperature in the reactor core quickly rises...and with each passing second bringing them closer to nuclear disaster!
