Very professional... I get asked to sign copies of this book all over the world. (Lars Ulrich, Metallica)
McIver has left no stone unturned to discover the truth... Exactly the weighty tome Metallica deserve. (Record Collector)
McIver is exhaustive in his research... A book for the [Metallica] obsessive. (Q)
When the first edition of this book was published in 2004, it caused enormous controversy, with author Joel McIver's account of Metallica's rise and fall exposing the multiple myths that had surrounded the band for years.
For the first time, a book dared to tell the unvarnished truth about their early life on the San Francisco circuit, their heyday as the world's most uncompromising metal band and the notorious controversies which plagued their later years.
Joel McIver is a writer and journalist specialising in rock and metal. One of the editorial team at Record Collector magazine, his work extends from biographies of Tool, Slipknot and Queens of the Stone Age - also published by Omnibus Press - as well as articles for various magazines to liner notes for classic albums.
