....................... Metallica - Metallica .......................
"Metallica", besser bekannt als "das schwarze Album", war die schwerste Geburt der mit über 100 Millionen verkauften Alben erfolgreichsten Metalband aller Zeiten. Über 1 Millionen US Dollar Produktionskosten haben Metallica alles riskiert und gewonnen. Das schwarze Album stieg direkt auf Platz 1 in die US Albumcharts ein, verkaufte sich bis heute über 15 Millionen Mal allein in den USA und brachte der Band um James Hetfield 1992 einen Grammy in der Kategorie "Best Metal Performance". Die ersten 4 Metallica Alben sind bereits in super remastered Qualität auf Vinyl erschienen und
wurden 2008 als Re-Issues des Jahres ausgezeichnet. Nun ist endlich auch "Metallica", das durch Meilensteine wie "Enter Sandman", "Nothing Else Matters" und "The Unforgiven" sogar die Pop-Charts stürmen konnte, wieder auf Vinyl erhältlich. Und das sowohl in der Standard 33rpm Doppel-LP Version als auch als 4-fach Vinyl-Deluxe Box (45 rpm) mit exklusiv glänzenden Klarlack-Sleeves, laminierter Box und Lyrics Sheet.Ein absolut einmaliges Klangerlebnis für Metallica-Fans! .........................

Rezension:
Mit "…And Justice For All" war ausgelotet, was in progressiver Hinsicht möglich war, ohne das eigene Genre zu verlassen. Mit dem folgenden, wohl auch programmatisch selbstbetitelten Album definierte sich die Band – – im Mainstream. Und das, ohne an Gesicht (oder Gewicht) zu verlieren. Die Songs: Hart, aber prägnant, melodiös und mehrheitsfähig, was sieben Millionen Käufer allein in den USA bestätigten. Mit "Enter Sandman" als Eröffnung zieht die Band das Publikum gleich auf ihre Seite; es folgen Instant-Genre-Klassiker sozusagen am laufenden Meter. Und: richtig radiotaugliche Balladen ("The Unforgiven", "Nothing Else Matters"). Natürlich sprachen einige Ur-Fans von Ausverkauf, aber eingängig ist bekanntlich nicht zwingend gleichzusetzen mit substanzlos. Ein verdienter Erfolg ohne Frage; ein weiteres großes Metal-Meisterwerk. – Zum 30. Albumgeburtstag wurde neu remastert. (1991/2021)

Metallica (also known as The Black Album) is the eponymously titled fifth studio album by the American heavy metal band Metallica. Released on August 12, 1991 through Elektra Records, it received widespread critical acclaim and went on to become the band's best selling album. Metallica produced five hit singles that are considered today among the band's best-known songs: "Enter Sandman," "The Unforgiven," "Nothing Else Matters," "Wherever I May Roam," and "Sad but True."
The band promoted the album with a series of tours. In 2003, the album was ranked number 255 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The album marked a change in the band's sound to one less harsh than the thrash metal style of their previous four albums.
The recording of Metallica was troubled, with the band frequently entering conflicts with Bob Rock, the band's new producer, during production. The album debuted at No. 1 in 10 countries, and spent four consecutive weeks at the top spot of the Billboard 200, making it Metallica's first album to top album charts.
As of April 2014, the album has stayed over 300 weeks on the Billboard charts, making it among the albums with most weeks on the chart. Metallica is the group's best-selling album, selling 30 million copies worldwide. It is the best-selling album of the SoundScan era. The album was certified 16× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2012, and has sold more than 16 million copies in the United States, being the first album in the SoundScan era to do so. Metallica played the album in its entirety during the 2012 European Black Album Tour
"Bon Jovi producer Bob Rock helped create one of the best-selling metal albums of all time, led by 'Enter Sandman' and the ballad 'Nothing Else Matters." — Rolling Stone
