On July 25, 1983, a small independent record label released Metallica’s debut album, Kill ‘Em All. From humble beginnings, the album became a cornerstone of the emerging thrash metal movement, and has gone on to sell almost 10 million copies worldwide. This week host Ian Christe (“Sound of the Beast”/Bazillion Points Books) reconstructs the landmark album start-to-finish with tribute songs covered by Cannibal Corpse, Anthrax, Destruction, Primal Fear, Dew Scented, Toxic Holocaust, and more!
