Metallica: The Thrash Stash

Metallica: The Thrash Stash takes you along on the wild, wild ride that was the evolution of the hugely successful band. From dingy basement clubs in the early 1980s through tragedy, success, excess and ear-splittingly loud music to recording with the San Francisco Symphony orchestra and Lou Reed, Metallica has seen plenty in its 30-plus years. This beautifully designed and illustrated book also contains rare items of removable facsimile memorabilia from throughout the band's history. Ideal for fans, the book contains everything from facsimile copies of a receipt from Guitar Center for a new bass for Cliff Burton to a Monsters of Rock backstage pass, and from a Metal Massacre Brooklyn poster (1986) to a Troubadour payment sheet from one of their first ever gigs.
