To commemorate more than a decade of sobriety and life lessons learned, Nikki Sixx and SIXX:A.M. revisit the seminal work; announcing Tenth Anniversary Editions of the book and album in multiple formats including: digital LP, CD, CD / DVD, and Special Edition Vinyl, and Graphic Novel. Fans can get a jump start TODAY by pre-ordering these and more exclusively at PledgeMusic ; http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/sixxammusic Nikki Sixx got sober sixteen years ago. A decade ago he shared this story with the world. And yet with the modern opioid crisis looming larger than ever; Sixx’s journey to sobriety and the words and music it inspired remains poignantly relevant. Chronicling the year of decadence and depravity that almost cost Sixx his life during the recording and tour for Mötley Crüe’s seminal 1987 album GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS, the book not only became a worldwide bestseller but also spawned the band SIXX:A.M., and Sixx’s nationally syndicated daily iHeart Media rock radio show “Sixx Sense with Nikki Sixx.” Says Sixx: “Over the last ten years I’ve met so many people who have thanked me for The Heroin Diaries and say that it saved their lives,” explains Nikki. “But the truth is, writing The Heroin Diaries saved my life too.” Journey back again into this mega–New York Times bestselling survivor’s story in one of the most “harrowing” (Rolling Stone) and “heartbreaking” (The New York Times) memoirs of addiction ever published and the soundtrack it inspired. The once-shattered rock star shares raw and mesmerizing journal entries from the year he plunged to rock bottom—and his courageous decision to pick himself up and start living again. In never-before-seen photos and exclusive new chapters, Nikki reflects on his decade of sobriety in this expanded 10th anniversary edition of the book. SIXX:A.M. also celebrates its 10-year anniversary with the re-release of The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack: 10th Anniversary Edition. Comprised of James Michael (vocalist, producer, songwriter), Dj Ashba (guitarist, songwriter) Nikki Sixx (bassist, songwriter), the group initially came together to write, record, and co-produce The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, which sold over 300,000 copies, and includes the #1 hit single, “Life Is Beautiful,” which became radio’s most played rock song of 2008. Over the past decade SIXX:A.M. has become a full-fledged global rock powerhouse, releasing four additional albums, multiple Top 5 hits and playing the biggest festivals and arenas around the world. THE HEROIN DIARIES: Ten Year Anniversary Edition by Nikki Sixx is out October 24th via Gallery Books / Simon & Schuster featuring a new cover, never-before-seen photos and exclusive brand new chapters. THE HEROIN DIARIES: 10th Anniversary Edition Soundtrack by SIXX:A.M. will be released October 27th via Eleven Seven Music as a digital album, CD, and CD/DVD. A limited edition vinyl package will also come later this year. All music configurations feature new artwork, personal notes from the band and include 3 newly re-imagined tracks: “Life Is Beautiful 2017”, “Accidents Can Happen 2017”, and Girl With Golden Eyes 2017”. Also on pre-sale today is The Heroin Diaries graphic novel, a collaboration that Nikki Sixx and HEAVY METAL recently announced at ComicCon San Diego. The Graphic Novel presents the Heroin Diaries from a different angle and gives both insight and understanding to the deadly trap and temptation of addiction adapted by Rantz Hoseley, illustrated by Danijel Zezelj, and Keiron Dwyer, an with exclusive cover art by David Mack. In addition, Sixx will debut his first-ever photography exhibit in partnership with Leica Camera at the Leica Gallery Los Angeles beginning October 4 (announcement forthcoming). The collection features Sixx’s most precious moments and interactions from the past decade, in images including homelessness and drug addiction amongst other topics which Sixx was all too familiar with before photography helped change his life post-sobriety.   WATCH: “Life Is Beautiful 2017” Lyric Video by Rantz Hoseley HERE ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mhS27imc-o&feature=youtu.be Nikki Sixx: Twitter ; https://twitter.com/NikkiSixx – Facebook ; https://www.facebook.com/nikkisixxofficial/ – Instagram ; https://www.instagram.com/nikkisixxpixx/?hl=en Media Assets: Album Cover ; https://10thst.app.box.com/s/drvtaczqace67swpn5puoql9smyz2z7z  – Book Cover ; https://10thst.app.box.com/s/4ba283ic0qwpodtdsknvr32sby3eyifl  - Graphic Novel Cover ; https://www.dropbox.com/s/pobl041c2k2grr3/davidmack-3.jpg?dl=0 Sixx:A.M. – 2017 Press Photo: (Credit: Dustin Jack – Hi-Res Download) ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/m0hkdtvw9vee50g/AADIQPQOaeJOoB0OF9xv9pPya?dl=0&preview=SixxAM1%28new%29.jpg ABOUT NIKKI SIXX: Nikki Sixx is the International rock icon, founding member of Mötley Crüe and Sixx:A.M, three-time New York Times best selling author with The Heroin Diaries, This Is Gonna Hurt and Mötley Crüe’s The Dirt, philanthropist, photographer and syndicated radio show host of Sixx Sense and The Side Show Countdown.

METALLICA's ROBERT TRUJILLO: 'We Still Have Yet To Make Our Best Record Together'

RARE BLACK METAL COLLECTIBLES

METALLICA bassist Robert Trujillo was recently interviewed by veteran radio personality Jenn Marino, who in 2014 joined MÖTLEY CRÜE and SIXX:A.M. bassist Nikki Sixx as co-host of "Sixx Sense With Nikki Sixx" and "The Side Show Countdown With Nikki Sixx". You can now listen to the chat below. A couple of excerpts follow (transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET). On METALLICA's new album, "Hardwired… To Self-Destruct": Robert: "'Hardwired', to me, is a combination of us becoming better as a band and also having a great time with our producer. Greg Fidelman has everything to do with how this album sounds and making us play better. I know, as a bass player, I've been very fortunate in my career to play with my heroes and to play different styles, but on this album, it was really about the art of simplicity but also being heavy in finding rhythms that counterbalance to James's [Hetfield, guitar/vocals] riffs and Lars's [Ulrich, drums] drum beats. And that's exciting. It's fun to try new things with your producer and to get that sound and just to really have a good time in the studio. So 'Hardwired' is a combination of growing, and maybe you could even say it's the second step to [2008's] 'Death Magnetic', 'cause 'Death Magnetic' was sort of the first journey, for me, creatively, that I took with METALLICA. But it also was Greg Fidelman's first step with the band as well, and now he's the producer. Rick Rubin produced 'Death Magnetic', which was great, and it was important and it needed to happen. And now here we are. And I feel like we're still moving forward. Creatively, there's great energy and it shows in this album and how it's being received. I feel it's a good time to be in the band." On a possible follow-up to "Hardwired… To Self-Destruct": Robert: "Me personally, I get excited about creativity, and I feel personally, and I've heard James say it too, that we still have yet to make our best METALLICA record together. And that's a good thing. I mean, we're proud of this, and I'm only thinking, well, if you're proud of this, there's more to come, man. We've got more in us, and I feel like, in a way, there's sort of a new beginning that's happening here. Sometimes it's rough — you go through these times and personalities or whatever, and you deal with that stuff, and like any band or any family or any situation [or] any team, we have gone through that in the last… just even couple of years. But, again, you grow and you get through it, and when you get through it, hopefully you're making kick-ass music and you're playing better. I feel like even with these small shows we've been doing — we played Webster Hall in New York and we played the Opera House in Toronto, we played Vans skate park, House Of Vans, in London — and it's just fun. But what's been great about it is we've been reconnecting on these small stages, and we've realized that we really like playing together and we really enjoy each other's… It's, like, 'Hey, there you are!' You're not on some big aircraft-carrier stage [where] you might see each other every ten minutes. But it's been cool. And I don't know. You can't always predict this stuff — it just sort of grows and happens, and it feels good right now." The North American leg of METALLICA's "WorldWired" trek will hit stadiums in sixteen more cities before ending in mid-August. The next stop on the tour is Chicago, Illinois on June 18. Support on the quartet's first North American trek since 2009 is coming mainly from AVENGED SEVENFOLD and VOLBEAT, with GOJIRA taking over for the latter group for the last six shows.
