A collection of songs that never made it onto "Load", almost more of a compilation album rather than a full-length.

Trivia: Metallica wanted to release "Load" as a double album but were forced to scrap that idea because of problems recording so many songs at one time. So as a result, only 14 songs made the final cut on "Load" while Metallica decided to save the rest for their next album, thus the birth of "ReLoad".

The cover of the album is original artwork depicting urine and blood. It is one of three photographic studies by Andres Serrano created in 1990 by mingling the artist's own urine and bovine blood between two sheets of plexiglass.

Recording information:

Recorded and mixed at The Plant Studios in Sausalito, California at various points in time between May, 1995 & February, 1996, and between July & October, 1997.
Mixed at The Plant Studios in Sausalito, California in September and October, 1997.
Additional editing at Plantation Studios in Maui, Hawaii.
Mastered at Sterling Sound.
