METALLICA Launch Web Site For Soundboard-Quality Concert Downloads

March 1, 2004

LiveMetallica.com is a new official METALLICA web site that promises to bring the fans live soundboard-quality METALLICA concert downloads (.mp3 or .flac) from the band's current tour within a few days of the show. Each show will cost approximately between $10 and $13 (depending on the format),with the additional option of having custom CD artwork printed out.

"This is the next logical step in a process that began back in 1991 when we first implemented the 'Taper Section' at our shows, where our fans were encouraged to bring in their own gear to record the show, and then take home their very own 'bootleg' of the concert they had just seen," said METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich. "This technology will enable our fans to get the best possible recording of the show, without having to hold a microphone in the air for the entire night!"
