(hennemusic) Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett's new book, "Too Much Horror Business," will be published on October 1 and he has announced a series of book-signing events to help launch the project. Documenting Kirk's love of all things horror, and the legendary collection of horror memorabilia he has amassed over the years, "Too Much Horror Business" is a 228 page, hardback, large format coffee table book featuring well over 300 full color images from Kirk's private collection and exclusive set photography by Mark Leialoha and Joe Gibbs.
There are also three extensive conversations with writer Steffan Chirazi covering the importance of collecting in Hammett's life from childhood, plus personally-written captions by Kirk for many of the items displayed in the book. "This is my gift to all the other horror nerds out there who are just like me," says Kirk. "It's been made with great love for all the many characters and movies which guided me through childhood, into adulthood and which still keep me on track today." See the book tour dates here.
