)
7 editions published between 2009 and 2015 in English and held by 76 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Heavy-metal survivors Metallica are one of the most important bands on the planet. Formed in 1981, James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, and Lars Ulrich have sustained their reign over the hearts and minds of millions of devoted fans for almost three decades. Rock journalist Paul Stenning reveals the unique blend of fearless reinvention, integrity, and resilience that have ensured Metallica's unrivalled status as multi-platinum-selling metal royalty with a place in the Rock & Role Hall Of Fame." "The personal tragedy, petty rivalries and all-consuming addictions that have threatened to eclipse the band's achievement at every step are no secret - from the tragic loss of bassist Cliff Burton in 1986 to the remaining members' prolonged mistreatment of new recruit Jason Newsted, James Hetfield's life-threatening alcoholism and Lars Ulrich's relentless pursuit of success at any price." "All that Matters uncovers every last detail of Metallica's chequered past, chronicling the highs and lows that took the group from stadium to courtroom to rehab, whilst attempting to unravel some of the most profound contradictions of all. Featuring unseen interviews from forgotten friends and ex-lovers, this is the complete no-holds-barred guide to the band."--BOOK JACKET

Iron Maiden : 30 Years of the Beast - The Complete Unauthorised Biography by
Paul Stenning(
)
3 editions published in 2006 in English and held by 11 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Annotation Back in 1976, nobody really knew that there was an old wave of British Heavy Metal. But within 2 years of their formation, Iron Maiden had spearheaded what came to be abbreviated the NWOBHM, and as with punk the year before, a new generation of Rock musicians bought in a new wave of the genre - and in the process made loud, raw, heavy, rock the global phenomenon it is today. Iron Maiden - 30 Years Of The Beast - The Complete Biography 1976-2006, is everything it promises to be, telling the band's story; starting at their inception all that time ago and bringing it completely up to date, as the band continue to enjoy the massive success they have become accustomed to through four decades. The ups and the downs, the splits and the reunions, the sex and the drugs; they're all here, and the author has left no stone unturned in his quest to finally tell the true story of the band. Featuring exclusive interviews throughout with members past, colleagues and friends, managers and promoters, the ex-girlfriends, the groupies and the dealers. This astonishing work will eclipse everything previously available, particularly showing up the band's official biography Run To The Hills [Sanctuary, 1998] to be the sanitised, toned down and rather tedious cover up it really is
