Metallica Discography

Metallica have unveiled the first release in The Metallica Vinyl Club 2.0, and it's a nod to a classic album and a virtual communication service.

In the first week of March 2020, Metallica announced their first-ever attempt at a vinyl subscription service known as, quite simply, The Metallica Vinyl Club.

In conjunction with their four shows in San Francisco, Calif., celebrating their 30th anniversary, Metallica released 'Beyond Magnetic.'

In their 40 years together, Metallica have generated plenty of controversy and criticism.

After working with producer Bob Rock for four straight albums over the course of more than a decade, Metallica decided to switch gears with 'Death Magnetic.'

Recording for the album that would eventually turn into 'St. Anger,' Metallica's eighth studio album, began in January 2001.

By 1999, Metallica were the biggest metal band in the world, but continued to push musical and artistic boundaries.

Metallica released the five song covers album ‘The $5.98 E.P.: Garage Days Re-Revisited’ in 1987. Almost a decade later, the band had added several more cover songs to their repertoire, and the original E.P. was long out of print. They decided to put together a double album of cover tunes.

After waiting more than five years between ‘Metallica’ and ‘Load,’ fans of Metallica only had to wait 18 months for ‘ReLoad.’ The reason is because the band wrote more than two dozen songs for ‘Load’ and thought about doing a double album. Instead, they put out ‘Load,’ then came back and finished the rest of the songs from that session, which became ‘ReLoad.’
