Metallica to Release Live DVD Filmed in France

Tuesday, October 20, 2009

METALLICA are poised to release a live DVD entitled Francais Pour Une Nuit (translation: French For One Night) on 23 November. This will be their first ever French concert DVD. It was filmed at the Roman Coliseum in Nimes, France in July of 2009.

Francais Pour Une Nuit is unique in that not only was it filmed in France, but All aspects of the project are French… other than the band themselves, of course. The concert was filmed, recorded, and edited with French camera and recording crews; the artwork was created by a French design team (including a one-of-a-kind special package); even credits are in French.

In keeping with this Franco-phile theme, the DVD will be available in retail stores in France only. However, due to a strong demand from Metallica fans around the world, Francais Pour Une Nuit will be made available on a direct-to-consumer basis through Universal Music (www.metallicanimes.com), as well as the band’s own website.

The DVD will be available in the following formats:

Deluxe Limited Edition Box with a DVD/”Death Magnetic” CD/T-Shirt/Laminated pass and lanyard/5 Exclusive Photos

Standard DVD in digipack/1 DVD including 2 hours of the show, 37 minute interview of the band, 5 videos from the audience/16 page booklet
