metallica are giving their iconic 1991 self-titled album —known as “The Black Album” — the 30 th anniversary treatment with the usual remaster/ hardcover book / multiple live albums and DVDs. But most interesting of all is “The metallica Blacklist,” a 53-track tribute album featuring covers of the album’s songs — with 100% of the proceeds going to charities —by a head-spinning array of artists that reads like a Pitchfork playlist: St. Vincent, Phoebe Bridgers, J Balvin with the Neptunes, Mac DeMarco, Kamasi Washington, Rina Sawayama, and many more (see the full list of artists, covers and charities below.
Leading the set is Miley Cyrus’ cover of “Nothing Else Matters,” which she performed with Watt, Elton John, Yo-Yo Ma, metallica bassist Robert Trujillo, and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith.
The deluxe box setfeatures a double album, a picture disc, three live LPs, 14 CDs, six DVDs, a hardcover book, and more.
