Living stone
seeking the same glorious splendor in the ruins as they did -- first at Rome, then on the Adriatic coast, then south into the impoverished, rocky region of Basilicata. There, we dreamed the Italian dream writ large: a dream of life shaped by stone, shaped into stone. Stone the color of honey, stone chipped and worn, stone steeped in an otherworldly order, stone sweet to the eye and touch. ...

Metallica revives old sound
