After over thirty years in the scene, Philip H. Anselmo remains one of the biggest names in the business.

So Let It Be Written: The Biography of Metallica’s James Hetfield

Posted on by

While this book did not tell me anything that I didn’t already know, because I’m as die-hard at they come, it’s still a brilliant look into one of heavy metal’s most important icons.
