| | SoundWorks Collection | Metallica: Through the Never' Sound for Film Profile
In this exclusive SoundWorks Collection profile we talk with the sound team behind Metallica: Through the Never, including Re-recording Mixer Jeff Haboush, Re-recording Mixer Rick Kline, Sound Designer Mark Mangini, Music Producer Greg Fidelman, and Supervising Music Mixer Joseph Magee.
As Metallica performs a roaring live set for fans in a sold-out arena, a young roadie named Trip is sent on a mission to meet a disabled truck and retrieve a particular item. However, the routine task turns into a surreal odyssey when Trip's van is hit by another vehicle and he subsequently finds himself up against a death-dealing horseman. As Trip flees through desolate streets, he has only his wits to help him avoid the deadly horseman and deliver Metallica's cargo.

"I used to get coffee for people and do various things around the place."
