Amoeba Music

After bassist Jason Newsted quits the band in 2001, heavy metal superstars Metallica realize that they need an intervention. In this revealing documentary, filmmakers follow the three rock stars as they hire a group therapist and grapple with 20 years of repressed anger and aggression. Between searching for a replacement bass player, creating a new album and confronting their personal demons, the band learns to open up in ways they never thought possible.

 

Icludes Joe Berlinger's additional bonus feature, "This Monster Lives," a new 25-minute short film commemorating the tenth anniversary of Some Kind Of Monster. The new film takes us behind the-scenes of the world premiere of the band's 3D hybrid concert film Metallica: Through The Never, including new interviews with the band and with Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky as they reflect upon the legacy of Some Kind of Monster, its influence on the band and their experiences during the decade since its release.
