💿 METALLICA – CREEPING DEATH (12" BLUE VINYL EP / 1984) Up for sale is a verified, highly collectible 1984 European first-pressing of Metallica’s legendary "Creeping Death" 12" EP. This specific variant features the stunning, translucent Blue Vinyl and is the highly sought-after "Made in France" pressing distributed via Music For Nations. This record is an absolute must-have piece of thrash metal history, featuring the definitive mid-80s lineup of James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and the legendary Cliff Burton. 🛡️ PROOF OF AUTHENTICITY (MATRIX RUNOUT IDENTIFIERS) Unlike the common 2007 unofficial/bootleg colored reissues that feature entirely blank deadwax, this copy is 100% verified authentic. It features the original 1984 hand-etched matrix runout codes confirming it was pressed by MPO in France using original London CBS master disks, featuring the signature etches of mastering engineer Tim Young ("tim tom"):
