Metallica To Crowdsource Photos, Videos and Audio for Classic Re-Issues


Kill-'Em-All-Back

 

Through a post on their website, Metallica has put out a call to fans for to crowdsource materials including old photos, audio and videos from the Kill `Em All (Megaforce) and Ride the Lightning (Elektra) era’s of the band. The materials will be used for anticipated deluxe remastered re-issues of those two thrash masterpieces covering the early part of the bands history from 1982-1984. People who think they can help can email into submissions@metclub.com

they did the same thing for a future Master of Puppets re-issue also due next year. Metallica is known to be one of the champion archivists of their own history and materials, as seen through a plethora of past releases, exclusive fan merch, the Metallica XXX -30th Anniversary Concerts, and many books; so call upon fans to provide new, unseen materials is curious, but cool.

There isn’t much of a disclaimer or legalese in the post, but submitting materials into the band likely means they have full use and ownership of them so think before sending any priceless mementos into the band.

The band is still working on the follow-up to 2009’s Death Magnetic, but has a busy end of the year line-up with a ‘Lords of Summer’ Record Store Day Black Friday single release, a performance at Blizz Con, and a week long residency on the Late Show With Craig Ferguson.
