Description
Silver Lining Music is proud to present No Life ’Til Leather – A Tribute to Metallica’s Kill ’Em All: the most propulsive debut
album in heavy metal history, re-imagined by the legends who inspired it and the generations that came in its wake!
Organised by diehard Metalli-fans, this track-by-track covers project proves how far the influence of San Francisco’s finest still
runs. The veteran likes of Motörhead, Saxon and Diamond Head (three of Metallica’s favourite bands) are joined by such
rising stars as Soen and Tailgunner to create a who’s-who of heavy music, with each performer lending their unique sound to
one classic track.
No Life ’Til Leather represents a labour of love which kicked off when Diamond Head tracked their version of “No Remorse” for
a 2020 re-recording of their landmark debut, Lightning to the Nations. With Motörhead’s Grammy Award-winning take on
“Whiplash” also in their vault, Silver Lining Music selected an array of metal talent to round out the tracklisting on a tribute effort
for the ages. Contributions from thrash giants Testament, ex-Megadeth bassist David Ellefson and New Wave of British
Heavy Metal linchpins Tygers of Pan Tang show the label looking beyond their own artists to amass the greatest lineup
possible.
After Tailgunner’s “Hit the Lights” opens and demonstrates how kick-ass the song remains in 2025, hard rockers The Almighty
dish out a particularly confrontational “The Four Horsemen”: their first recorded work with their founding lineup since 1991. The
galloping “Motorbreath” has Soen shed their prog metal skin, whereas bass solo “(Anaesthesia) Pulling Teeth” is every bit as
technical and emotional in Ellefson’s hands.
The album wraps with some of Metallica’s closest peers and greatest champions: Diamond Head have been both idols and a
support act for the megastars, Testament (who intensify “Seek & Destroy” even further) joined them in the trenches of the
California metal scene, and Raven (closing with their thundering take on the anthemic “Metal Militia”) were part of their first-ever
tour.

No Life ’Til Leather is an ambitious achievement worthy of Metallica’s game-changing legacy. By the fans and for the fans, it
reaffirms the Four Horsemen’s ironclad legacy – and its stacked roster continues the band’s mission to shove metal up your
ass.
