Metallica - Load Box Set Unboxing

Post by Chip Z'Hoy »

Why is this coming out a year early? Anyone know the reasoning behind that?

Found my answer on Reddit: Not anniversary releases, or at least not all the time.

Not a fan of the album, but damn they sure know how to do it right. I like how it has the vinyl and the CD all in one package plus all of the extras. just wished it was an album that I liked.

I like Metallica okay, but I'll admit, they're not my favorite heavy metal act. However, if I had the money, I would absolutely have all those album box sets, just because of how well done they all are.

They aren't released on the anniversaries, necessarily, though some have been. Kill Em All and Ride The Lightning's box sets both came out in 2016 and Master Of Puppets in 2017. AJFA's was in 2018, which was the anniversary, and The Black Album's took longer and came out on the anniversary because that was like a 4 year tour.

Also, somewhere in there was supposed to be one for No Life Til Leather, but Mustaine and Lars couldn't work out a songwriting agreement.
