Lars and I gave up the steering wheel a little more than usual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hammett agrees: “It was much more collaborative. The attitude was just more open. There is less limitations on everyone’s creativity and I think that shows.” His favorite song and riff on the album were supplied by Trujillo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The band has lately gotten a popular bounce from TV show \u003cem>Stranger Things\u003c/em>. In the season four finale, fan-favorite character Eddie Munson heroically rocks out to Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” in the Upside Down, a sequence Hammett calls “the Metallica music video that was never made.” The song even reached No. 40 the Billboard Hot 100.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>Stranger Things\u003c/em> definitely took ‘Master of Puppets’ to another level and it feels like fans of ours that maybe grew up with this are now in positions of power,” says Hetfield. “You know, it’s like, ‘Hey, I’m a fan of Metallica.

His top sellers include the 2012 split EP between Municipal Waste and Toxic Holocaust, which he still struggles to keep in stock, as well as the aforementioned immensely popular reissues from Spazz and Dystopia.

He’s well-aware that the label’s growth has been a direct result of the relationships he’s built, and isn’t about to take that fact for granted.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“There is such an insane history in underground music [in the Bay] so I really want to do my part,” he explains. “I can only hope people see what we’re doing here as part of that lineage. From Dead Kennedys to Rancid, from Death Angel to Neurosis, from Too Short to Hieroglyphics to Lil B. There are many micro communities in the Bay existing under the banners of punk and metal. While we are just one of them, there is a certain energy at our shows that stems from the family-style support team we’ve put together, and the people can feel it.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3650696870/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Heath has been booking metal and punk shows for as long as he’s lived in the Bay, but in recent years, Tankcrimes has also moved into the festival space with multi-day events like Brainsqueeze, as well as stacked, one-off ragers like the upcoming\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.eventbrite.com/e/tankcrimes-takeover-of-elis-necrot-kicker-cliterati-deathgrave-tickets-67329160331\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Tankcrimes Takeover\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> at Eli’s Mile High Club on Aug. 23.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Heath’s advice to other young punks or heshers who want to emulate Tankcrimes’ ongoing DIY success story is straightforward, but clearly comes from a place of compassion—much like his overall approach to the music business. “The number one thing that will hold a person back is fear,” Heath says. “Do not be afraid of what people will say.

His top sellers include the 2012 split EP between Municipal Waste and Toxic Holocaust, which he still struggles to keep in stock, as well as the aforementioned immensely popular reissues from Spazz and Dystopia.

From Dead Kennedys to Rancid, from Death Angel to Neurosis, from Too Short to Hieroglyphics to Lil B. There are many micro communities in the Bay existing under the banners of punk and metal.

They plan to call it \u003cem>Gereg\u003c/em>, the name for a diplomatic passport used during the time of Genghis Khan. For the album, the idea was to find, study and incorporate as much of Mongolia’s musical culture as they could into a rock style, says the band’s 52-year-old producer and songwriter, B. Dashdondog, who goes by “Dashka.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mongolian musical culture is tied up with their pastoral way of life. The two-stringed horsehead fiddle is shaped to resemble a horse and includes the carving of a horse head and strings and bow made of horsehair. It produces a sound similar to a violin and can be used to imitate the sound of a herd of horses. In throat singing, associated with pastoral herders in Central Asia, the singer produces a low constant sort of drone at the same time as a series of higher tones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We wanted to come up with our own thing that we can offer to this big music family.

In the band’s first song, “Yuve Yuve Yu” (What’s going on?), they mention Genghis Khan and how he was fated to bring nations together. The video begins with images of people inside playing video games, watching television and looking at their phones. A door is opened and the band’s four members step into different natural settings: cliffs, desert, forest and lake. The message they hope to convey through their lyrics and imagery is that people need to pay attention to nature and their history and culture, explains lead singer TS.
