Originally released in 1987 and out of print for decades, The $5.98 EP: Garage Days Re-Revisited was Metallica’s raw, thrashing tribute to the underground heroes who shaped their sound. It marked the debut of bassist Jason Newsted, stepping into the massive void left by Cliff Burton’s passing—and it rips from start to finish.

Recorded fast and loose in LA, the EP includes covers of songs by Diamond Head, Budgie, Killing Joke, Misfits, and Holocaust. From the twin-lead assault of “Helpless” to the stomping ferocity of “The Wait,” this is a snapshot of Metallica at their most energized and stripped-down. This 2018 remastered edition restores the original tracklist and layout, complete with Hetfield’s liner notes and a download card for the digital version.

Fast, furious, and gloriously unpolished—it’s the garage band the world could no longer contain.
