10 Times Metallica Completely Shredded The Stage At Live Shows!

If there’s one thing heavy metal band Metallica knows how to do, it’s their blistering, rage-filled live shows! 

Metallica’s music has spanned over 30 years, bringing heavy metal fans together under their huge legacy and talent. The band, comprising of guitar-shredder Kirk Hammett, crab-walking bassist Robert Trujillo, master drummer Lars Ulrich and the master of puppets James Hetfield himself, have been making speaker-annihilating music for 3 decades now. Over the course of this time, they have mastered the art of performing live shows.

One can expect large production values, huge-ass venues and a level of energy from the performers which is simply unparalleled! They have sold out stadiums and performed at legendary venues over 10 lakh people!
