METALLICA has announced the definitive re-release of its quadruple-platinum seventh studio album "ReLoad", to be released June 26 via the band's own Blackened Recordings.
Remastered by Reuben Cohen at Lurssen Mastering with Greg Fidelman overseeing, the "ReLoad" remastered limited-edition deluxe box set is available now for pre-order at this location, where full package details and track listings can be viewed. Pre-orders of the deluxe box will receive instant-grat versions of "The Memory Remains" including the remastered original recording, "Instrumental Mix, Take 18 Floor Take", and "Live In Brisbane".
Originally released November 18, 1997, "ReLoad" was the third consecutive METALLICA album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, ultimately spending nearly 80 weeks on the chart and attaining No. 1 status in six countries, and top 10 in nearly a dozen more. The 1995-1997 sessions at The Plant in Sausalito, California that yielded both "ReLoad" and "Load" found James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett and Jason Newsted exploring expanded creative terrain and pushing the boundaries of METALLICA's sonic identity. On "ReLoad", this meant bold decisions ranging from the inclusion of hurdy-gurdy and violin on the somber "Low Man's Lyric" to Marianne Faithfull's haunting guest vocal on "The Memory Remains".
