Review

Illustrating Metallica's impact on music outside of heavy metal, an aggregation of industrial bands covers 13 songs in tribute. Actually, there aren't 13 different songs, since several appear twice by different bands. Razed in Black, Abaddon (he of death metal pioneers Venom), and Die Krupps will probably be the most recognizable names to metal fans, and the latter by virtue of an entire Metallica tribute album of their own. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
