 Description:
 
 The making and continued influence of Metallica's commercial  breakthrough (known simply as "the  Black Album") is entertainingly recounted in this must  for Metallica fanatics, especially those who are interested in the recording  of one of hard rock's most sonically breathtaking albums. Drummer Lars  Ulrich, singer James Hetfield, and producer Bob Rock take up the lion's share  of the interviews, and their reminiscences a decade after the fact include  many juicy tidbits (like Ulrich and Rock loathing each other by the time the  recording was finished, or that the final mix was nearly ruined by a digital  clicking sound on the master tape--luckily, a successful remastering was  done). The Dolby 2.0 Stereo sound is appropriately pummeling, even if we are  treated to mere excerpts from the songs, videos, and even some of the original  demos. Classic Albums: Metallica adroitly summarizes a pivotal moment in  hard rock history. --Kevin Filipski
