Metallica Announces MASSIVE Reload Box Set!

Following the 2025 release of Load, we’re psyched to bring you our latest mammoth box set: ReLoad, remastered and reissued. Revisit all of your favorites, including “Fuel,” “The Memory Remains,” “Fixxxer,” and Grammy Award Winning “Better Than You,” and witness their evolution from riff tapes to the final tracks that we know and love.

Pre-orders start now, and the full package will hit your doorsteps, record stores, and all your favorite digital outlets on Friday, June 26, 2026. All formats pre-ordered from Metallica.com will receive digital instant grat tracks straight to your inbox.



As you’ve come to expect, ReLoad will be released in multiple formats, including standard 180g 2LP, CD, cassette, and digital (including Spatial Audio), a 3CD Expanded Edition, and, most importantly, a massive Deluxe Box Set.

This one-time pressing is jam-packed with exclusives, starting with six slabs of vinyl. Included are the remastered ReLoad album on 180g double vinyl, a 7” single for “The Memory Remains,” and Ministry of Sound ’97, a 140g triple album recorded live in a small London nightclub on November 13, 1997.

Across 15 CDs, four DVDs, and six pieces of vinyl, fans will dive into everything from the remastered album to riffs, floor takes, demos & rough mixes, B-Sides & rarities, behind-the-scenes in-studio footage, on-air & television appearances, the band’s acoustic radio show & infamous free concert in the parking lot of CoreStates Center in Philadelphia, and tons and tons of live material. We’re talking six complete live shows professionally mixed from the original master tapes! All in all, the Deluxe Box Set clocks in at 1697:47.

Did SickSense Just Become A Completely Different Band?

SickSense isn’t exactly interested in staying in its lane—and the new Funerals EP makes that painfully obvious.

Vicky Psarakis opens up about the band’s darker musical direction, the surprisingly personal story behind A Moment of Violence, and why chasing whatever happens to be commercially popular can be a fast track to sounding like everybody else.

Then the conversation gets downright nasty when AI music enters the picture. Suno, Spotify, musicians skipping the hard work, endless AI-generated albums and the question nobody seems to want to answer: what happens to music when the humans stop being necessary?

Add a new North American tour and a completely DIY approach to keeping the band alive, and this interview goes a hell of a lot deeper than simply talking about a new EP.

Does Asia Still Sound Like Asia? Harry Whitley Talks Indigo!

Walking into Asia as the new vocalist means stepping directly into the crosshairs of fans who know every note, every lyric and every inflection.

Harry Whitley doesn't shy away from that pressure. He talks about the John Wetton comparison, the challenge of performing the classic songs, and what changed when he finally got the chance to help create brand-new Asia music with Geoff Downes.

Then there's Indigo — the album that puts his own stamp on the band and forces the obvious question: can a new era of Asia actually satisfy fans who grew up with the classics?

Harry also gets into working with some seriously intimidating musicians, the band's chemistry behind the scenes, touring plans, fan reaction and why buying the music still matters in the streaming era.

There's a lot more going on here than just another new album interview.

Forbidden’s Craig Locicero: Why Come Back Without Russ Anderson?
What happens when a legendary thrash metal band loses its original singer, finds an unexpected replacement, and decides to make a record that sounds nothing like a nostalgia exercise?

Forbidden is back, but what makes this a band worth rebuilding instead of another name dragged out for festival season? Craig Locicero joins Chris Akin on CHRIS AKIN PRESENTS to discuss Norman Skinner stepping behind the microphone, writing new Forbidden music, and the pressure to deliver something beyond recycled thrash nostalgia. Can a different voice preserve the identity fans love—and how much room should those fans give a band to move forward?

Why Did THE PINEAPPLE THIEF Go Back To 1970s Recording Methods?
Has modern recording technology taken something essential away from rock music?

Has modern recording technology taken something essential away from rock music? THE PINEAPPLE THIEF frontman Bruce Soord thinks there’s something irreplaceable about musicians creating together in the same room.

Get FAR AND WIDE from The Pineapple Thief Here: https://amzn.to/4ygui4x

In this exclusive CHRIS AKIN PRESENTS interview, Chris Akin sits down with Soord to discuss the band’s new album, *Far and Wide*, their move from longtime label Kscope to InsideOut, and why the group deliberately returned to a more traditional approach to writing and recording.

Soord explains how working together as a band helped capture the energy of their live performances, why drummer Gavin Harrison pushed everyone to become better musicians, and why this new creative direction isn’t just a temporary experiment.

The conversation also gets personal. Soord reveals the heartbreaking experience involving his father’s final days that inspired “Still Living,” discusses his changing approach to vocals and songwriting, and explains why the band’s musical complexity must serve the emotion of a song.

PLUS:

- Why THE PINEAPPLE THIEF left Kscope after approximately 20 years.

- How Gavin Harrison helped elevate the band’s musicianship.

- Why recording together can accomplish things remote collaboration cannot.

- The emotional story behind “Still Living.”

- Why “No Exceptions” represents the band’s collaborative approach.

- How Bruce Soord’s singing voice has evolved.

- Why touring America is becoming increasingly expensive.

- Why Soord wants fans supporting independent record stores.

Is the future of rock music actually hiding in the way bands made records 50 years ago?
