Metallica Load The House Jack Built Ugly Christmas Sweater 1996 Album Artwork Knitted Holiday Pullover Nordic Pattern Heavy Metal Winter Knitwear Unisex

The Metallica Load The House Jack Built Ugly Christmas Sweater 1996 Album Artwork Knitted Holiday Pullover Nordic Pattern Heavy Metal Winter Knitwear Unisex transforms Max Loeffler’s haunting limited-edition poster artwork celebrating “The House Jack Built” from Metallica’s platinum-certified Load album (1996) into festive holiday knitwear that seamlessly blends Nordic Fair Isle patterns with the song’s apocalyptic imagery of a massive skull formed from smoke and fire overlooking a dead-end street with a burning house. Released as part of Metallica’s official holiday merchandise collection at The Met Store, this premium knitted sweater features the iconic Load logo prominently displayed alongside traditional Christmas elements like snowflakes, geometric zigzag patterns, and repeating Metallica M logos across the shoulders and sleeves in a bold orange, teal, and cream color scheme that captures both the album’s controversial grunge-influenced aesthetic and festive seasonal spirit. The sweater commemorates Load Remastered 2025, the comprehensive June 13, 2025, rerelease that includes 301 total tracks with 245 unreleased recordings featuring rough mixes, demos, B-sides, rarities, and live performances from the 1995-1997 era, along with a deluxe box set containing four DVDs of behind-the-scenes content, a 128-page hardcover book with never-before-seen photos, Lollapalooza ’96 live recordings, and special collectibles including tour laminates, a Pushead patch, and Rorschach Test cards. Crafted from high-quality artificial wool blend (typically 90% polyester and 10% spandex for durability and comfort), this officially licensed unisex pullover is perfect for ugly sweater parties, holiday concerts, or showcasing your appreciation for one of Load’s most underrated tracks that features James Hetfield’s deeply personal lyrics about mortality and addiction—themes he was intimately familiar with during the album’s creation—along with Kirk Hammett’s talk box effect and the rare instance of Hetfield performing the guitar solo. Available through Metallica’s official merchandising partners including The Met Store and Probity Worldwide, this holiday knitwear allows fans to celebrate the band’s evolution during their experimental mid-90s period when they explored blues-tinged heavy metal and introspective songwriting while bringing heavy metal attitude to traditional Christmas festivities.
