Idles have released their contribution to The Metallica Blacklist tribute album, covering “The God that Failed.” The Metallica Blacklist tribute celebrates Metallica’s 1991 breakout self-titled release (more commonly known as The Black Album), with 53 bands performing their versions of tracks found on the album.
All proceeds from the sale of the tribute album will be split between Metallica’s multi-faceted non-profit All Within My Hands Foundation, as well as an artist choice non-profit. Idles have chosen the Trussel Trust to end UK hunger for their charity.

the white drew carey (aka – Jeff Sorley) is the founder and head editor of TGEFM. He’s lived (outside of) Chicago, Madison WI, (ugh) Penn State, Lyon FR, Oxford UK, central New Jersey, and now within earshot of SFO in the Bay Area. When not scouring the web for more great bands and labels to post about, he also spends time drawing (mostly) silly sci-fi and anime stuff under the name Asplenia Studios.
