Metallica performed two completely different sets over their two nights headlining Aftershock, with organiser Chamie McCurry describing it as “a truly unique experience”.
“It’s a truly unique experience for Metallica fans to be able to see them two nights, never repeat a song. Two completely different sets,” McCurry told KCRA. “This is something that’s part of history.”
Metallica recently celebrated the 30th anniversary of ‘The Black Album’ by reissuing the record last month along with a special covers album, ‘The Metallica Blacklist’. The band also recently performed the album in full during their set at Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, Kentucky.
Last week a YouTuber reimagined Metallica‘s ‘Master Of Puppets’ in 50 different styles for a new video.
The video is the brainchild of YouTuber and musician Anthony Vincent, who has recently brought us such delights as Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ in the style of Deftones and a jazz cover of Foo Fighters’ ‘Everlong’.
