TRAILER: Metallica, Slayer, More Look Back on Bay Area Thrash in ‘Murder in the Front Row’

Any fan of the now legendary '80s trash metal that emerged from the San Francisco Bay-area will need to check out this new documentary trailer.

Murder in the Front Row, based on the book of the same title, features new interviews from the scene's biggest names including Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Exodus, Testament, Death Angel, Possessed and many more!

The film is set to premiere at the AMC Kabuki 8 theater in San Francisco on April 20. So far, a distribution deal hasn't been announced. Considered all of the names in MITFR, it's unlikely the doc won't find any interested parties for the film's distribution rights.
