On Thursday, you'll hear from one of the four men who made "The Black Album." He was there for all 301 gigs... first one in the building, last one out. His thunderous bass tone rattled speakers for millions of fans around the globe, and he's the man behind the hypnotic intro to "My Friend of Misery." That's right. Jason Newsted is checking in with #MaximumMetallica# as the Hero of the Day. You won't want to miss it. Tune in Thursday, August 13 at 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT and 7 PM ET / 4 PM PT on @SIRIUSXM Channel 42. Listen on demand in the SXM app after it airs.

In the summer of 1992, @gunsnroses and Metallica shared a stadium bill for what is widely remembered as an orderly, incident-free tour where absolutely nothing went wrong whatsoever. Right??? 👀 @DuffMcKagan was there for all of it. And he's stopping by #MaximumMetallica# for the 35th Anniversary of The Black Album with his five picks as Hero of the Day. Catch it on Wednesday, August 12 at 4 PM ET / 1 PM PT and 9 PM ET / 6 PM PT on @SIRIUSXM Channel 42. Listen on demand in the SXM app after it airs.

This summer’s European run of shows marked another amazing #MetallicaFamily# accomplishment. Through our #BleedingMe# blood drives in partnership with local blood banks throughout the #M72# World Tour, you donated over 52k units of blood! Because every unit helps approximately three people, your donations can save the lives of more than 150 THOUSAND PEOPLE! Blood is an incredibly important medical resource, and your incredible participation in this campaign will help people living with cancer and immune deficiencies, new mothers, trauma patients, and people undergoing surgery. Thank you, all, from the bottom of our blood-pumping hearts! #MetallicaGivesBack# #AWMH#

Thanks to the #MetallicaFamily#, “thousands of people across England, Scotland, and Wales have given someone another birthday, another gig, another song in their heart… another chance.” Across the UK, an incredible 27,800 units of blood were donated during our #BleedingMe# Blood Drives! We cannot thank all of you enough for rolling up your sleeves and joining this vital cause. Shoutout to Billy the Blood Drop for making it to London Stadium to catch a gig! #AWMH# #MetallicaGivesBack#

“Metallica has been creating music and touring for 45 years, which has allowed us to connect with incredibly passionate fans all over the world. As such, we’ve focused our charitable efforts on helping people in the communities we visit by giving back locally through food banks and shelters, and by sponsoring blood drives. Given the universal need for skilled tradespeople, the logical next step is to expand our workforce education initiatives internationally, starting with bringing our Metallica Scholars Initiative to London. This is only the beginning—as we like to say, we’re just getting started!” - Lars Ulrich

“This thing started as a dream. Now our program is changing lives. To expand our impact on a global scale and support even more students is so rewarding. We’re so proud of all the Metallica Scholars who have come through it and all the ones who will participate in it. It’s humbling to know we’ve been part of the journey of thousands of trade professionals doing good, hard work in the world.” - James Hetfield

In response to the devastating earthquakes that struck Venezuela, AWMH is granting $100,000 in support through longtime partner @directrelief. While the full scale of the damage is yet to be determined, the United Nations is reporting that up to 6.8 million Venezuelans may be affected, including those displaced or losing access to electricity and water. More than 68,000 people were reported missing within three days of the disaster, and the official death toll is approaching 2,000. Direct Relief is preparing medical aid commonly needed after earthquakes, including first-aid supplies, hygiene items for displaced families, medicines used to treat acute injuries, and chronic disease medications for people whose access to routine care may be interrupted. AWMH’s $100,000 grant will support Direct Relief as the organization continues to respond to requests in the region as they become known. 💙 Learn more and join us in lending support at 📸 Maryorin Mendez, AFP #MetallicaGivesBack# #AWMH#
