According to Billboard, METALLICA‘s “The Metallica Blacklist”, a massive 53-song collection featuring covers of every track off of the band’s self-titled breakthrough album, sold 8,000 copies in the U.S. in the week ending October 7 to land at position No. 7 on Billboard‘s Top Album Sales chart. Of that sum, 6,300 copies were CDs while nearly 1,400 copies the vinyl LP edition.
A week earlier, when “The Metallica Blacklist” was only available to purchase as a download, spent one week on the Top Album Sales chart at No. 73. The physical editions of the album, on CD and vinyl LP, were made available on October 1.
“The Metallica Blacklist” offers up new dimensions of the record whose gravitational pull first drew the mainstream to METALLICA — and provides new insights into the universal and timeless appeal that kept it there: the boundary-smashing influence these 12 songs have had on fans and musicians of all stripes. “The Metallica Blacklist”‘s 53 tracks find singer songwriters, country artists, electronic and hip-hop artists — including musicians like WEEZER, Phoebe Bridgers, Jason Isbell, St. Vincent, CAGE THE ELEPHANT, PORTUGAL. THE MAN and many, many more — sharing their love of these songs alongside punk rockers, indie darlings, icons of rock, metal, world music and many, many more.
All profits from “The Metallica Blacklist” are being split evenly between the All Within My Hands foundation and 50+ charities chosen by the artists who play on the album. All Within My Hands was founded by the band in 2017 as a way for the entire METALLICA family to give back to communities that have supported the band by supporting workforce education, the fight against hunger, and other critical local services.
