Metallica celebrated Record Store Day on the 18th of April in 2018 with the release of an exact duplicate of the band’s 1982 cassette demo tape, No Life Till Leather. Recorded in the summer of 1982, No Life Til Leather is Metallica’s most widely-circulated demo tape. The track listing contains early versions of their debut album Kill Em All which has gone triple Platinum. This is the first time Metallica are releasing it officially, remastered for Record Store Day. It features artwork copies from drummer Lars Ulrich’s own personal copy of the original demo, as well as his handwriting. Metallica said in a statement, In 1982 we recorded seven songs that became our initial calling card known as No Life Till Leather’ and it led us to our first record deal. The rest, as you some of you may know, is history!. The band added about the new reissue, We’ve been digging through the archives, gone to the original source material and remastered it to maximize the sound potential for 2015 without altering the original mixes in any way. The seven-song tape was recorded with the first line-up of the band that appeared live as Metallica, including Ulrich, frontman James Hetfield, lead guitarist Dave Mustaine and bassist Ron McGovney.
