New Metallica “Black Album” Tribute Detailed, Lemmy, DevilDriver, Etc. To Appear
If your memory hasn’t been entirely damaged by Twitter feuds and weekend binging; then you may recall that DevilDriver tracked a cover of Metallica‘s “Holier Than Thou” back in June for a tribute to Metallica‘s 1991 self-titled (aka “Black Album“) effort. That compilation has now officially been revealed and will be packaged with the upcoming September 2011 issue of the German edition of “Metal Hammer” magazine.
While the magazine itself will sport a special extensive look at the making of the “Black Album” and the like, the bonus tribute disc will feature the following songs:
01 – Lemmy Kilmister – “Enter Sandman” (feat. Zebrahead)*
02 – The New Black – “Sad But True“
03 – DevilDriver – “Holier Than Thou“
04 – Dark Age – “The Unforgiven“
05 – Callejon – “Wherever I May Roam“
06 – I.C.S. Vortex – “Don’t Tread On Me“
07 – Neaera – “Through The Never“
08 – Doro – “Nothing Else Matters“
09 – Motorjesus – “Of Wolf And Man“
10 – Finntroll – “The God That Failed“
11 – Borknagar – “My Friend Of Misery“
12 – Sodom – “The Struggle Within“
The issue is scheduled to go on sale on August 24th.
* previously released on the 1998 “ECW: Extreme Music” compilation.

Seriously, Lemmy and Zebrahead, that’s a fucked up match. Also – other than Devildriver, Broknahur, & Finntroll, who the hell are these bands?
Borknagar* blah
Zebrahead = a fun time
I actually own Waste of Mind. There’s a few decent tracks with……… cool guitar effects? An upbeat attitude?
This looks awful, not gonna lie
Finntroll doing Metallica? I must hear this…
I always liked Prong’s lame cover of Enter Sandman.
check out Neaera from Germany, if you’re into death metal / metalcore.
This looks pretty good – stoked to see Neaera, Dark Age, DevilDriver, Vortex, and Borknagar throwing their talents on this. But some of the other bands, I have no clue who they are. I hope that Metal Hammer didn’t pick a bunch of no-name post-hardcore/screamo bands for this like Kerrang did with their Iron Maiden compilation.
Motorjesus are like a spawn of the no bullshit allowed hard rock/metal club that Lemmy and ACDC helped create. VERY interested in hearing their take on Of Wolf And Man.
