Biography Channel - June Premieres

Biography: Metallica (June 3rd, 10:00pm ET)

Since forming in 1981, San Francisco Bay Area band Metallica has gone from an underground heavy metal band to one of the most successful groups in the world. Their breakout album was Metallica (otherwise known as the Black Album.) Released in 1991, it was a huge hit that brought Metallica worldwide success. They were universally hailed as the band that brought Metal to the mainstream. But Metallica's journey wasn't always easy. The band has faced serious blows along the way including infighting in the group, alcohol addiction, and the tragic death of one of their own. They have persevered through it all and their success can be directly attributed to a passion and no-compromise attitude in every project they undertake. With their ninth studio album, Death Magnetic on the shelves, Metallica shows no signs of slowing down.


Biography: Aerosmith (June 4th, 10:00pm ET)

An up-close look inside the bestselling American hard rock band of all time, from their early days in Boston and their rise to fame in the 70s to their first taste of super-stardom, this is the band as we've never seen them before. We'll reveal the impact of drug addiction, hard times in the 80s, and their resurrection which many call the greatest comeback in rock 'n' roll history.


Biography: Vanilla Ice (June 11th, 10:00pm ET)

Profile of the hip-hop singer who soared to stardom, and then saw his career crash and burn just as quickly. Born Robert Van Winkle, he excelled in break dancing, and was given his famous nickname by fellow break dancers because he was white. His hit song "Ice Ice Baby" put him at the top of the charts, but he soon faltered. He was accused of being a fraud because of false statements about his past, and he was forced to share royalties with a rapper who claimed he co-wrote "Ice Ice Baby." In a fragile state, Vanilla Ice wrote a suicide note and ingested massive amounts of drugs and alcohol. He survived, and went on to find more success in a second career as a reality show star.
