Legendary music photographer Ross Halfin has documented Metallica for nearly 25 years, from their beginnings as a scrappy, furious garage band to their current status as one of the most popular metal bands in the world. Metallica collects the best of Halfin's amazing images, taken over the years with access granted exclusively to him as friend to the band. His candid, on stage and backstage, on and off tour photographs are supplemented by text from numerous people close to the band - managers, engineers, roadies, music writers - as well as personal observations by Halfin and the band members themselves. Including a foreword by James Hetfield, Metallica is a powerful and definitive collection of images and text and a must-have for the band's fans around the world.
