Critics Review

“This happens to be the earliest account of photos to surface on this band’s early period … this book is a must-have for the true Metallica fan.” – Big Wheel Magazine

“Photographer Bill Hale was right there at the germination of this mega-band and many others, and in these rare photos, he’s captured the raw metal energy of those early sweaty shows … including a ton of cool backstage hijinks to make the book flow with a smile pasted across yer face.” — Goldmine“Hale captures the edgy essence of the young band; the aura that would later lead them to world notoriety as one of the greatest and most aggressive rock ‘n’ roll bands ever to emerge from North America. If you are a serious Metallica fan or just a purveyor of rock history, this book is a must-see.” — Sacramento Book Review“Fans of Metallica will love this intimate look at the band, from more than two decades back. Bill Hale takes us on that journey, offering a massive dose of heavy metal mania.” —Shelf Life“For any rock biographer or collector of rock publications, Metallica: The Club Dayz 1982–1984 is an essential photographic guide of perhaps one of heavy metal’s most important bands. It’s not everyday that a publication like this is released.” — Glory Daze Music“This happens to be the earliest account of photos to surface on this band’s early period … this book is a must-have for the true Metallica fan.” — Big Wheel Magazine
