Enter Night: A Biography of Metallica
"[Y]ou want this. You want Mick Wall'sEnter Night. The Metallisaga is fascinating, almost an epic, and Wall is well up to the task of telling it."--Boston Phoenix "They may be the greatest band of all time, but Metallica have been plagued by a load of artistic misfires and band-member squabbles.  In this extensive biography by British rock journalist Mick Wall, no lowlight goes unnoticed...His narrative is straightforward and fast-paced - it's fun to see the band transform almost overnight from scruffy, Mötorhead-loving teenagers to hard-partying gods of thunder." --Rolling Stone(3 and ½ stars)"Enter Night, Mick Wall's biography of Metallica confirms this grizzled veteran to be [an] engaged and waspishly authoritative chronicler of metal's most hirsute behemoths." --Independent on Sunday (UK)"[A] flaming juggernaut of a heavy-metal biog... the author writes a deceptively casual-looking, sincere but half-amused prose." --Guardian(UK)'It takes a writer of Mick Walls' pedigree and calibre... to present the whole wild, wonderful and emotionally draining tale all over again and make it as consistently fascinating and momentous asEnter Night...this is the definitive account of heavy metal's biggest band of all." --Classic Rock"Millions of words have been written on Metallica, but few journalists have been present at so many of the band's milestones... [Wall's] eye for detail through the early years makes the book truly enlightening in the way it captures the character of the major players." --Rock Sound
