Metallica Vinyl Reissues Coming Soon

Metallica's official web site has been updated with the following message:

"While we're finishing up the new album, we told the dudes at the record company we thought it might be cool to dust off the old tapes and get all retro with some vinyl re-releases... First up are the first two albums (duh!?), 'Kill 'Em All' and 'Ride the Lightning', coming out on April 15 in North America and pretty fucking close to that in the rest of the world.

"There will be two versions...one like the original on a single disc spinning at 33 1/3, the other a two disc, 180-gram vinyl, 45 rpm package all in a double gatefold. The music was half speed mastered from the original analog tapes at Mobile Fidelity to bring you audiophile quality. Both versions will be available in the online store here and over at MetClub.

"Oh, and in case you were wondering, 'Master' and 'Justice' will obviously be next and should be coming out on vinyl in June."

Tour dates are below:

05/28 - Chorzow, Poland - Slaski Stadium
05/30 - Landgraaf, Netherlands - Pinkpop
05/31 - Madrid, Spain - Electric Weekend
06/03 - Prague, Czech Republic - Slavia Stadium
06/05 - Lisbon, Portugal - Rock In Rio Lisboa
06/07 - Nürburgring, Germany - Rock Am Ring
06/08 - Nürnberg, Germany - Rock Im Park

08/17 - Wil/Jonschwil, Switzerland - Degenaupark

Yeha ...

i think theyve finished the album, why should they went to the label and told them to produce the vinyls?
i hope they also told their dudes at the record company to finish the album !

[Kenny_NJ]

yeah, i think so. by now they've finished the new record. since they keep saying that new materials are somewhat similar to these old collectanea, i guess they figured it's necessary to catch more attention to the previous records. ( im sure its already got enough amount of "attention" )

[SumZombie]

what does vinyl mean lol

[IRONMAIDENTLICA]

Why cant they just release the new album i mean how many people are going to re-buy old albums just to say they have the vinyl version....damn you metallica stop messing with my head

[rip3149]

they should reissue a vinyl version of Kill 'Em ll with the original title "Metal Up Your Ass" complete with different cover artwork and packaging.

If they actually released Metal Up Your Ass on vinyl I'd get it in a heartbeat!

Thank god they are. I've been very patient to hear a new album from Metallica.

[Shread_6009]

ok...

does anyone still use vinyl?

there must be some hardcore collectors out there if they expect to pull in money

[MetallicaFan333]

Dude, vinyl? What's the point of that? I just can't wait until the new CD comes out so I can learn the songs, if they're good, and post them on here... Later...

probably, but even so, where are you bound to find a vinyl player these days, other than pawn shops or antiques.

dude i don't think they're expecting a big return on this....it's just ****in sweet that they're doing it. it ain't hard to find a record player, i bought one at st. vinnie's for like 20 bucks. if you actually have good speakers for it the sound quality is great. stop being little pessimists....."vinyl, what's the point of that?"...come on dude, it's better than nothing.

[redwolf206]

What are you talking about? You can get a good vinyl player at target or wallmart. Records are getting popular again as of lately, most of my friends are going out and buying old records to listen to, it's not rare.

[Pow3rSlave]

I have those CDs, but if it's starting to make a comeback, I may start collecting vinyl in general.

HMV... were i have seen lots of vinyl for sale.

[EpiSG1987]

they're probably just releasing the vinyls as a collectors item, and alot of people swear that vinyl has the best sound quality. i think i can count on one hand the amount of "records" (real records, that is) i've heard, but they sound just the same as CD's, so long as you have decent to good quality speakers. and plus, theres something to be said about having metallica on vinyl, i have a 45 of rage's bulls on parade. my girlfriend has a sublime record on her wall, it's got the 40oz. album art on it. what was i saying?.....oh yea, collectors items....yea thats it

[metal_freak_cam]

they need to ****ing come to america...

A vinyl record. came before 8 tracks cartridge, tapes, and cds. i should not have told you but i think its funny that you dont know.

[Nathan_393]

I'm happy enough to own the CDs.
As much as I love Metallica, I'm sure that the vinyls will be ridiculously over-priced and not worth getting to hear the same eight songs all over again for the ten billionth time.

[Menza_]

St. Anger on vinyl please haha

[CrazyPigeon]

WTF! No frigging UK date. The bastards.

Because some people (like me) actually enjoy listening to music on vinyl. I've been looking for a copy of Ride the Lightning for a long time actually.

Not to mention you could also buy the originals for probably $3 bucks a pop....

And yes, I enjoy vinyl too. It's also been proven vinyl is a truer reproduction of the original sound, and has a higher sound quality.

[vanhalen619]

this is more of a question than a comment but if you could only get one album this year would you guys get the new Metallica album or the new Guns N Roses album?

[sneaky11]

why would they show a picture of trujillo, or however the heck you spell it. show a picture of james or lars or kirk, quite possibly the three coolest people ever. even though i have nothing against him, i will probably never like trujillo because in my mind no one could ever replace cliff r.i.p. or even jason

Actually, vinyl is a group of polymers (plastics). The molecular structure is carbon centric and hydrogen to form polymer chains. Interestingly, alcohol and fart are types of vinyl.

it still doesn't change the fact that ur a jackass.

I have to get the Kill 'Em All vinyl, I've been dying to get my hands on one ever since I first saw James hold one up in those old vids. Damn, great news!

Me too...

I love vinyl, I just bought a vinyl player/cd player/radio (with speakers) for $100 at target! There are tons of stuff available in vinyl both old and new, it's just badass. Even my blank cds look like mini-vinyls

[dogofwar01]

old albums re issued on vinyls all the while remastered?
HD thrash thatll rule
c'mon guys vinyls, are basically used on turntables, please google image it or go to a hosptial.
METALLICA RULE!

[dogofwar01]

oh and can the dude whos listened to the songs pls link us or sod off, thank you..

[cookdizzle]

i'll probably buy some, but then i'll need a record player, I saw those players at target i'll have to get one

[MexiChriS]

i might just snatch me all of 'em when they come out if i can get the money for them

[Jackolas]

This is how tallica is meant to be blastered.

(On vinyl)

As is most good music.

[genresrforposer]

I want a Metal Up Your Ass vinyl!

[Jimmy Podge]

These albums were programmed and conceived with Vinyl LP's in mind. Vinyl has two sides and the tracklisting would reflect this. You'd finish side 1 and go friggin hell that was awesome and flip over. For one the listener involvement is so much greater with vinyl. Secondly, to my ears they do sound better (with a good system). Lastly, it's much easier to roll a spliff on a vinyl lp cover than it is on an Ipod!
I can't wait for them to come out!

I agree.
lol it seems they are preparing us mentally for the new album ... i hope it is as good as the old one or close. The first 4 albums never leaves my ipod or playlist .. i hope this one will too.

[mhylands]

The only reason I don't like Vinyl Records is that they wear with age, and I can't easily transport the music (i.e. in the car, while walking) even though I do know of cars that had players installed in them (but on a bumpy road, that's not a good thing). I'm pretty sure my parents have all the originals somewhere, XD.

[mhylands]

Sorry about that, I meant to say they wear with plays* (you can play it too much and wear out the quality).

[nolife'tilmetal]

Man, I can't wait for the new album. I wish they would release it already. Their old stuff is good ol' metal fun. But anyway on the vinyl side of the discusion.... I think it would be nice to have some vinyl records i guess just to say that I own metallica vinyls. I could play it on me step-grandmas record player it would sure stomp on her ass! hahaha

My friends mom used to have all the old vinyls from classic metal/rock bands... old school metallica, led zeppelin, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, motorhead, rush, and so on... Until my friend's psycho grandma threw 'em all away!!!!! That just pisses me off!

[The_Seventh_Sin]

cool!
lookin forward to thie reissues of these and the new album!

[nolife'tilmetal]

I wouldn't buy these re-release records you can get the real things for 3-5 bucks! Stores will probably sell these for 15. I think it's just another idea to get money. I wish metallica didn't go so mainstream. It's good to get attention and popularity but cutting their hair, wearing tuxedos, and playing to get money is just going too far. What happened to playing your guts out for the metal not the money?

[ParkerScks]

woww - omg - i cant bleve it *sigh*

[fastlanestoner]

awesome! original metallica vinyls are sooooo hard to find

[DevilsDance76]

Vinyl....thats awesome.

You know....a lot of ppl don't know this but a brand new vinyl record has the best sound quality out of any playback format (CD's and mini-disc included). Its because there is almost no compression what so ever.

[xgibsongirlx07]

how old are you kids that you dont know what a vinyl is?

[Zapfire]

haha, amazing, im 15, and I know what vinyl is, it actually has great quality to it. Not sure what the point of re-releasing is, but whatever, i want the new album.

Checked.

[metalmanjosip]

metallica on vinyl? thats like playing slayer on a banjo

[metalmilitia90]

i dont care abou this
put out the ****ing album

Anyway this is pretty great. Metallica vinyl isn't that impossible to, find yet, but still great. If it was all original style(packaging I mean) and priced APPROPRIATELY I would buy the first two, if not three albums.

[g-tarist]

haha wanna hear a joke? James Hatfield got stopped at the airport by security for setting off the metal detector... wait!!!! that actually happened, n i'm 10 metallica posts to late for the joke... and that was last year!!!

Millions of people still play vinyls... You'd be surprised how many copies they will sell.

Oh god, that's amazing.

I got a record player for christmas and since then I've been addicted to collecting records. I've gone through all my friends parent's collections, bought from eBay...I have like, ten beatles records, the other day I got the Doors first album, Sticky Fingers and Who's Next, but I dont' have any Metallica. This is great!

vinyls are those black discs that you need the turntable with the needle thing to play. before cds were all over the place, vinyl wwas the way you distribute music. real old tech stuff, but hey its nostalgic.

[pcell619]

I hope St. Anger doesn't come out on vinyl I won't use mine anymore

[johnkil11]

metallica plez come on projekt revolution!!!

the vinyls are probly just being released to keep the public busy while they are workin on the new album.

Ok, before Ipods and MP3 players, before CDs, and I think before and during audio casette's time (I hope you know what that is), were vinyl records. A record player, with the needle and all, played vinyl records.

i rather use vinyl over cds. vinyl has more of the raw sound than the over digital enchance cd.

i've got the first 4 metallica albums on vinyl with the kill'em all featuring am i evil and blitzkrieg on it.

but today i guess vinyls are more of a collectors thing. i collect and use them except for the special edition ones and the autographed vinyls i have

[Ali-b912]

vinyls are the big black discs for anyone who doesnt know. i wouldnt bother buying the vinyls because they will probably stick the price up way high. im pretty sure vinyls cost more then CD's to make and getting the shit to print them would cost a bit too.

i cant wait till they come out on vinyl im starting to collect vinyl records now, anyways i hope they come to australia its been ages

[nolife'tilmetal]

Hahahaha you guys are so funny. So everyone will stop arguing ill tell you guys what a vinyl/record is not the technical detailed way. They are big black discs that come in big square sleaves with the band name and album name on it. Your granny might have it. You put them on a machine that has a needle that touches the record and on the bottom of the machine they have this twirly thing that spins the record. In order to have the music play the needle has to touch he record and if it doesnt its common for people to out a quarter on it. Vinyls are also cool because you can hear secret stuff on songs. Like on Queen's Another one bites the dust and Led Zeppelins Stairway to Heaven. I'm only 15 and i Know what they are my step-grandma has a million boxes full of records. And i agree with ya'll (DANZIG767 and iron wolg and other people) i wish they would come to North America. I wish they would let their album out already! And if you are still confused about the vinyls then look it up on google since you have so much time on your hands to sit on your ass and talk shit on the computer.

I've got a hypothesis. Just like any internet discussion on politics inevitably brings in the Nazis, anything that talks about Metallica will bring discussions of how disappointing St Anger is with it. In this thread, it took 23 posts.

i still use vinyl. better sound than cd. it sounds warm and more organic.

That's funny, I just bought my first vinyls after I walked passed an Oxfam music shop. I found the "Going for the one" album by Yes, The Pirates "Out of their Skulls and I can't wait to get me a vinyl player to listen to these.

To be honest though, I don't think vinyls will sound better unless you get really expensive equipment stuff to play it with but the retro mojo it adds is priceless!

Thanks. The guitar sounds ok and the drums are drums for once but i still don't like James's vocals. There's alot of rumour songs for metallica but they're are usually face or they are eternal decision songs. I'm expecting great stuff from this album. Jame's singing annoys me though I don't like all the "ooooos and yyaaaaas".

Hahaha says the guy who just wrote a huge paragraph about what a vinyl is!
Anyway I do know what they are, but won't be buying them (mainly because I don't have a job). I have all the CDs anyway so it doesn't really matter. There's one CD I need in my collection still and that is THE NEW ALBUM goddammit!

[sk8kid49]

any one know where i can get stuff for older record players.
like REALLY older

[DSchmitty]

The New Song, and
The Other New Song, are not on the New Album, they've stated that before, they ditched em due to people not liking them and they accepted they could do better, which gets me hard because those songs were actually Ok-Good, and if they said the new stuff is better that's awesome.

I'm glad metallic are reissuing vynil it might spark a bit more interest it it which is a good thing but i'll still probably get the albums from little record shops where they cost me all of about £5 insstead of £20

Awesome! I love vinyl!

Shut up about people who don't know what vinyl is. Either ignore them or inform them. Everyone insulting SumZombie has been warned, and he has also been warned for flaming.

Man, vinyls are sweet, my teacher lent me the original Kill 'em All vinyl and it blows any cd, cassett, or audio file completly out of the water. Just playing it on a crappy walmart record player with like 2 1/2 inch speakers was almost orgasmic. Definatly getting this seeing as how I didn't have 400 bucks to buy the record box set that came out a few years ago.

But Metallica rocks!!

[nolife'tilmetal]

so i hear it's coming out in September (The New Album) I can't believe it took them 5 years to make another album. Hey Sumzombie guy if you are still on this forum thing and you don't know what a vinyl is then scroll up until you see a big paragraph that talks about vinyls. Just trying to help, bro. Everytime there is a forum of metallica it is always about the new album, st. anger, fighting between metallica haters and metallica lovers, people saying which metallica was good and which wasn't which starts more fights and people talking about Dave Mustaine and whatnot. Weird how this was just about reissuing vinyls and there is a million comments on here.... and this news came out last week or so...
