Autoimmune (album) Autoimmune is an album by Meat Beat Manifesto. Originally announced as a twenty track 2xCD release, Dangers decided to shorten the album to a single disc with different track listings between the US and European releases. Stylistically, it steps up the pace from other recent Meat Beat Manifesto albums, using elements of dub, hip-hop, industrial, breakbeat and more, and this saw the album being billed as a partial return to the early industrial sound of the band in the late 1980s. The album has also been described as Jack Dangers' take on dubstep, though Dangers has stated that Meat Beat Manifesto has always utilized the underlying concepts of that particular genre. This is the first Meat Beat Manifesto album with Danger's vocals since "Actual Sounds + Voices" in 1998; he appears on the track "Solid Waste". The album cover continues the checker-board/grid theme also seen on earlier Meat Beat Manifesto albums "Actual Sounds + Voices", "RUOK?", and the "Off-Centre" EP. Most of the remaining songs that were excised from the original double-disc concept were later released on an EP available only on the "Autoimmune" tour.

Kill 'Em All Kill 'Em All is the debut studio album by the American heavy metal band Metallica, released on July 25, 1983, by the independent record label Megaforce Records. "Kill 'Em All" is regarded as a groundbreaking album for thrash metal because of its precise musicianship, which fuses new wave of British heavy metal riffs with hardcore punk tempos. The album's musical approach and lyrics were markedly different from rock's mainstream of the early 1980s and inspired a number of bands who followed in similar manner. The album did not enter the "Billboard" 200 until 1986, when it peaked at number 155, following Metallica's commercial success with its third studio album "Master of Puppets"; the 1988 Elektra reissue peaked at number 120. "Kill 'Em All" was critically praised at the time of its release and in retrospect, and was placed on a few publications' best album lists. It was certified 3× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 1999 for shipping three million copies in the United States. The album generated two singles, "Whiplash" and "Jump in the Fire".
