…And Justice For All (2018 Reissues)

Bang Your Heads Like It Is 1988… again!

The reissue and expanded version of “…And Justice For All” is coming on November 2, 2018.

Thanks to Metallica.com, we get the Cassette and 3CD versions a little bit early; the Box Set is scheduled to arrive on the release date.

…And Justice For All” (Wikipedia) was originally released on August 25, 1988. It was the first full-length record featuring Jason Newsted on bass, filling in for Cliff Burton who was tragically killed in a bus accident on September 27, 1986. The song “One” is notable for being the first video single from Metallica. It was also nominated and won for the first Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.

This reissue is remastered but not remixed. For those who hoped for the bass tracked to be turned up in the mixed shouldn’t hold their breath.

The Cassette version also comes with MP3 Download card.

Metallica: Silver goes the Black Album

Metallica Black Album CD

Metallica released its biggest selling album on August 12, 1991; that’s twenty-five years ago to the date. Metallica’s self-titled album, spawned five singles:

  1. “Enter Sandman”
  2. “The Unforgiven”
  3. “Nothing Else Matters”
  4. “Wherever I May Roam”
  5. “Sad But True”

“The Black Album” as it is commonly referred to, went on to sell more than 16 million copies as of August, 2015 in the United States alone. Per Wikipedia article, It has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. In February, 2016 “The Black Album” was selling about 5,000 units per week; better than many newly released records that month.

“The Black Album” was the record that helped Metallica break into the mainstream music scene.

On May 7, 2012 Metallica performed “The Black Album” in its entirety from the last song to the first in Prague, Czech Republic.

I still play songs from the record to this day as it is one of my all time favorite along with the first four Metallica records.

New Release Tuesday: Bad Religion, Megadeth, Family Guy, South Park and Iron Man 2.

It is New Release Tuesday here in The United States and I know that I’m going to go broke.

Megadeth – Sudden Death
Sudden Death was recorded for Guitar Hero – Warriors Of Rock.

Season 12 Episode 3 - “Major Boobage” - Preview

From South Park Studios: (announced on March 23rd, 2008)

This Week on South Park: Major Boobage
In a South Park homage to the 1981 film, “Heavy Metal”, the boys are trying to get Kenny off the latest drug craze that’s captured the junior high and under set.

From today’s Comedy Central Press Release:

SOUTH PARK PAYS HOMAGE TO THE 1981 FILM, “HEAVY METAL”
IN AN ALL-NEW “SOUTH PARK” ON
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26 AT 10:00 P.M. ON COMEDY CENTRAL

NEW YORK, March 24, 2008 — The boys are worried when Kenny starts experimenting with the newest way to get high in an all-new episode of “South Park,” entitled, “Major Boobage,” premiering on Wednesday, March 26 at 10:00 p.m. (ET/PT) on COMEDY CENTRAL.

Kenny is skipping school and the other boys are sure it’s because he’s hooked on the latest drug craze that’s popular with the junior high and under crowd. Meanwhile, Kyle’s parents become concerned that their son is getting high when they find contraband in his room. To illustrate just how high you can go, “South Park” pays homage to the 1981 movie, “Heavy Metal.”

Airing Schedule on Comedy Central:

  • Wednesday, MAR 26 2007 – 10:00 PM
  • Thursday, MAR 27 2007 – 12:00 AM
  • Thursday, MAR 27 2007 – 10:00 PM
  • Friday, MAR 28 2007 – 12:00 AM

South Park Season 12 Episode 2 on:

  • iTunes Store – UNCENSORED (available on Saturday – March 22nd, 2008)
  • Amazon Unbox (available on Saturday – March 22nd, 2008)

South Park Studios and Comedy Central would like to remind you if you are looking for South Park episode, you can get it at iTunes Store, Amazon Unbox, or xBox LIVE instead of downloading the AVI or RM files off torrents from site likes mrtwig.net or southparkfiles.com. Comedy Central is so relieved that mrtwig.net is currently down. Another reminder from the Good Ol’ Comedy Central that asks everyone to stay away from southparkfiles.com, because southparkfiles.com has every single South Park episode made available in one form or another. Yeah, please do not go search for “South Park Torrent” on Google.

Remember downloading TV episodes off torrents is generally frowned upon by the TV networks. It’d be very very very wrong to download South Park episodes off torrent sites such as mrtwig.net where you can find high quality South Park episodes in AVI and RM. Please forget that you can find high quality South Park episode links on the Internet because Comedy Central would like you to purchase them. One final note, Comedy Central thanks you for purchasing South Park DVDs.

South Park: The Imaginationland Trilogy DVD
Dubbed as “Uncensored Director’s Cut”, this DVD would include unaired scenes from the trilogy. Would the DVD set make any different since all of Season Eleven Episodes are available for purchase on iTunes Store and Amazon Unbox. Of course! The DVD is higher quality than the digital download version, and it is not crippled with DRM.
