Editorial Review:
Guitar sheet msuic with tablature and words for Metallica songs (Enter Sandman, The Unforgiven, Nothing Else Matters, Master of Puppets, and One) and Slayer songs (Seasons in the Abyss, Dead Skin Mask, Black Magic, War Ensemble, and Die By The Sword). Includes full color, fold out poster of the bands. "Most every musician has at one time performed in a Battle of the Bands concert. These jam festivals, where bands go up against each other and showcase their best, have become a rite of passage for young rockers everywhere. Even the pros continue the tradition with multi-act, stadium extravaganzas. "Back in 1982, many hardcore metals fans were becoming disillusioned with a genre that was getting predictable and generic. About this time, Metallica and Slayer emerged on the scene and injected metal with a lethal dose of adrenaline. Utilizing over-the-top tempos, aggressive vocals, and guitar pyrotechnics with bone-crunching riffs, thrash metal was born. Although both bands were ignored by radio and the media, word spread fast among the fans. Constant touring and word of mouth catapulted Metallica and Slayer to mega-stardom."
