Album Cover
Metallica
A Year And A Half In The Life Of... Part 1

Album 1992 on Polygram Video label
Rock (Heavy Metal, Thrash)

Running time: 96 min. approx. Hey, check it out. When we heard the demos for our 5th album, we figured that we had the real shit. So we called our video connection, Juliana, and asked her for someone who could cover the making of the record in L.A. and beyond, you know, basically film everything! Enter Adam Dubin and his cohort Vinnie. For 9 plus months, they were there-all day and night (in the way)-letting the cameras run. Watch and listen as demos become finished, listen to why it really takes us 9 months to complete an album. Meet producer Bob Rock with his sidekick Randy. Listen to Metallica jam on different versions of the new songs. Get it all: Mixing, mastering, mistakes, making videos, manufacturing, etc. Find out what we're talking about when we talk about the 'joys' of the studio. We threw in the first 3 vids we made: the studio based "Nothing Else Matters," "Enter Sandman" and "The Unforgiven." We hope you dig checking out how it all came together. Tune in to Part 2 as we explore the other side of being in Metallica-THE never-ending 2 year tour.
