Before there was the covers compilation Garage, Inc. in 1998, there was the The $5.98 EP – Garage Days Re-Revisited in 1987. The EP is chronologically the next release in Metallica's remaster and reissue campaign, which was released between 1986's Master Of Puppets and 1988's ...And Justice For All. The EP will be released on April 13 and will include the following five cover songs, all of which appear on Garage, Inc.
- "Helpless" (Diamond Head)
- "The Small Hours" (Holocaust)
- "The Wait" (Killing Joke)
- "Crash Course In Brain Surgery" (Budgie)
- "Last Caress" / "Green Hell" (Misfits)
The release is available for pre-order now on Metallica's website on CD, vinyl, picture disc, cassette, and even longbox. The $5.98 EP – Garage Days Re-Revisited was remastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, California, and you can check out "The Wait" below.
Oh, and just in case you were wondering, $5.98 in 1987 adjusted for inflation is about $12.77 now.
