About This Album

Metallica's debut studio album on CD — the record that launched thrash metal as a mainstream force. Kill 'Em All (1983) was recorded on a shoestring budget at Rochester Sound Studios but crackles with a raw, unstoppable energy that no amount of production polish could replicate. From the opening riff of Hit the Lights to the relentless closer Metal Militia, it remains one of the most viscerally exciting debut albums in rock history.

Features James Hetfield's earliest lead vocal performances alongside Cliff Burton's landmark bass solo (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth — a monument to a player taken far too soon. Released via Blackened Recordings.
