April 4, Metallica will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Yesterday, the metal legends said they have set aside personal differences and invited original bassist Jason Newsted to join them for the induction. “There’s been an invite put out, no doubt,” James Hetfield said. “We want everyone to celebrate — everyone who’s been a part of it. ... You don’t want to see the drama of a… unfortunately, Blondie or [Sex] Pistols or Van Halen." Funny. He didn't say anything about Dave Mustaine.
The Grind is going to celebrate Metallica's HOF entry with two covers of the band's work and one massive blast of the real stuff.
Korn with a reverent cover of "One." Yes, Metallica had
a song called "One" before U2 did.
Bluegrass band Iron Horse with a wild, dexterous cover
of "Enter Sandman." Kirk Hammett likes it.
Finally, the real deal. This is the thunderous and
cruel "Last Caress/Green Hell" Misfits medley from
1987's "Garage Days Re-Revisited" EP. Absolute devastation.
