A new book about Metallica, titled “Metallca: The $24.95 Book”, will be released on August 15th via Backbeat Book.
According to the press release: “the book looks at Metallica’s cultural significance, with chapters devoted to each member, each album, touring, fashion, books, film, influences, fandom, history, and more, exploring the band’s ideologies along the way. “
I wanted it to it to be more than a fact book, and not just something people could just look up on the Internet,” says author Ben Apatoff, a writing teacher and music journalist.
