The metal titans of Metallica are always making news, and even though their album ‘Lulu’ with Lou Reed didn’t get the greatest response from fans, Metallica are responsible for some of the greatest and most influential records in the history of metal.

Metallica are gearing up to headline the Orion Music + More festival in Atlantic City, N.J., on June 23 and 24. They will be playing both ‘Ride the Lightning’ and the 'Black Album' in full during the festival -- the first time Metallica have played the entire 'Black Album’ on American soil. The festival includes a diverse lineup that ranges from Sepultura, Avenged Sevenfold and Suicidal Tendencies to Modest Mouse and Arctic Monkeys among others.

Drummer Lars Ulrich recently said about the music festival, “We’ve had the idea of doing our own lifestyle festival with lots of diverse music and fun and games for years. “Finally this year all the practical ducks lined up in a row, and we are beyond psyched to bring Orion to our fans, friends and the curious.

Not to mention Metallica’s classic song 'Master of Puppets’ is battling another iconic song -- Slayer’s ‘Raining Blood’ as the two go head to head for Loudwire's March Metal Madness World Championship.
