Episode 117 - 1995: A Year In the Life of Metallica

We're back covering every year of Metallica's existence in excruciating, bone-crushing detail. This week we tackle 1995. The boys say goodbye to KNAC, a popular California hard rock station, Kirk does a primitive AOL chat, the boys begin recording what would become Load and Reload with Bob Rock, they play some cool warm up gigs and rock Donnington again in what Lars called at the time one of the best shows of their career, they play a super weird show with Hole and MOIST (?) at the top of the world and round the year off with a Lemmy tribute at the Whiskey. We also read fan e-mails and address rumours of additional S&M2 shows. If you think Metal Up Your Podcast has value and are able to, we encourage you to support us on Patreon.
