The band was invited to record this album by a label employee after a 1995 show in which they performed some of the songs. The members were initially unsure and thought nobody would listen to such a record, but the employee insisted and they recorded it.[2] On 22 July 2016, a remastered version of the album was released with new bonus tracks.[3] In 2017 to 2019, the band returned as a cello quartet for the first time since 2009 to perform all the Metallica tracks they have covered to celebrate their 20th anniversary of the debut album. In late 2018, a live recording was released in CD, vinyl, and DVD with live footage entitled Plays Metallica by Four Cellos - A Live Performance.
