Louder: Metallica donate €130,000 to the victims of Germany's 2021 flood disaster
Metallica have donated €130,000 (approx. £111,400/$137,000) to flood disaster victims in western Germany.
On July 14 last year, the region was flooded several months’ worth of rainfall in just 22 hours, causing 196 deaths in that country and 243 fatalities across Europe.
The following August, Metallica released a limited edition Enter Sandman single off the back of the 30th anniversary of The Black Album, which came in numbered, glow-in-the-dark seven-inch vinyl, Maxi CD and three-inch PockIt CD formats. It was distributed solely within Germany, with all the sales profits going to the victims of the flood.
