No, Metallica isn’t getting soft as they age. And to be honest, I really don’t know what kind of music gets played at fancy dinner parties. When(which is rare that) I get invited to one, I feel so awkward and out of place that I get blackout drunk and don’t remember what happens. Short story long, this is what I imagine “sophisticated” metal heads would play at fancy dinner parties. Enter the acoustic duo of Rodrigo Y Gabriella. Coming up on Record Store Day Black Friday, the duo will release an EP called “The Mettal EP“ with the pair’s take on Metallica’s “Battery.” You can hear the pair sharing their love for thrash metal on covers of Megadeth’s “Holy Wars” and Slayer’s “Seasons in the Abyss” as well. Below is their cover of “Battery.” Its time for dinner parties to get heavy!
