Metallica, ‘In Their Own Words’ — Video Exclusive
Even though the folks at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame don't have the best track record when it comes to honoring our heavy metal heroes, they seem to finally be coming around to their senses. On April 4 they will be inducting Metallica into their exclusive club. The California thrash legends will be joining Black Sabbath who criminally is the only other metal act honored by the committee so far.
To help celebrate this huge moment in Metallica's history, Fuse travelled to Manchester, England and captured the band reflecting on their storied career in the channel's unflinching documentary, 'Metallica: In Their Own Words.'
The following is a Noisecreep exclusive of a never-before-seen excerpt from the gripping special which will premiere Monday, March 30 at 9PM/8C only on Fuse.
Make sure you also tune in on April 4 at 9PM/8C when Fuse will be airing the Metallica Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in its entirety.

Metallica Welcome Iraqi Metal Band to U.S. Soil
After years of death threats and failed efforts to escape the turbulent region, metal band Acrassicauda were eventually granted refugee status in the U.S., where they were treated to a dream greeting from Metallica. The band's extraordinary story was captured in the documentary 'Heavy Metal in Baghdad,' which is available free on SnagFilms.com. Have a look.
