Annabel Lee
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

It has been exactly 30 years since the release of the cult album “Metallica” by the legendary band Metallica, which is known as “The Black Album” due to its cover design. The group’s best-selling, best-known album, whose tracks are among the classics, entered the Billboard 200 charts at number one in 1991. Like Master Bruce Dickinson once said, The Black Album introduced metal to the masses and paved the way for the successors of the genre. To celebrate the 30th year, more than 50 artists from various countries and continents of the world, who make music in very different genres, were asked to interpret their favorite Metallica song from the album; and this is how the Metallica Blacklist was born, including 53 cover tracks, all profits of which will be donated to charities.
