James Hetfield initially considered “Nothing Else Matters” too personal to become a Metallica song. Written while he was away from his girlfriend, it eventually developed into one of the band’s most famous ballads. The track appeared on 1991’s self-titled Metallica, produced by Bob Rock with Hetfield and Lars Ulrich,... show more

One of the funniest and most endearing stories involving Lemmy Kilmister (Motörhead) and Metallica took place backstage at the Sommet Center in Nashville, Tennessee, on September 14, 2009, during Metallica’s World Magnetic Tour. Metallica was in the middle of a relaxed jam session in the dressing room. James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo, Lars Ulrich, and a few other friends (including Matt Sorum of Guns N’ Roses) were playing some casual jams. Suddenly, Lemmy walked into the room. Robert Trujillo began clapping excitedly, and Lemmy, in his characteristic raspy voice, James Hetfield greeted him with a respectful smile: “Hello, sir.” Lemmy sat down, tuned his bass, and, without further ado, the entire group launched into two Motörhead classics from 1979: first “Damage Case” and then “Too Late Too Late.” Lemmy and Hetfield took turns on vocals, with Lemmy on bass and singing with all his raw energy, while Metallica backed him up with groove and enthusiasm. At the end of the second song, James Hetfield joked, “Are we hired?” Lemmy replied with a laugh, “Yeah, I guess so… but you’ve got to get rid of that drummer.” Lars Ulrich, keeping his sense of humor, answered instantly, “I’ve been trying to get out of here for 25 years!” Everyone burst out laughing. That casual backstage moment was captured on video and shows the genuine chemistry between them: Metallica always viewed Lemmy as an idol and mentor. Lars Ulrich has often recounted that as a teenager he was president of the Motörhead fan club on the West Coast (along with Cliff Burton) and that he tried to keep up with Lemmy’s drinking pace… only to end up throwing up. That mutual admiration led to several on-stage collaborations, but the 2009 backstage jam is particularly warm and spontaneous. It was a meeting of legends that epitomized the respect and friendship between Motörhead’s wildest rock and Metallica’s thrash. A slice of pure, unfiltered heavy metal history.

One of cinema’s most famous themes was dragged onto the dancefloor when Moby radically reworked the James Bond sound in the late 1990s. “James Bond Theme (Moby’s Re-Version)” combined the familiar composition by Monty Norman with breakbeats, distorted guitars and electronic production, turning the orchestral classic into something built for clubs and festivals. Released in 1997, it featured on the soundtrack to Tomorrow Never Dies and reached No. 8 in the UK. The track was also included on Moby’s 1997 album I Like to Score. At Pinkpop in 1998, his aggressive live version showed the heavier side of his music before Play transformed his career.

Metallica switching it up with a unique performance of “Am I Evil?” with all of the members playing a different instrument. With Hetfield on drums, Lars on vocals, Kirk on bass, and Jason on guitar, this performance shows off the versatility each of these musicians possess. This song is a cover, originally written by the band Diamond Head. Diamond Head was a British heavy metal band that was a big influence on Metallica, who recorded this song in 1984. Anger and paranoia are common themes for both Metallica and Diamond Head, and this song has plenty of both: it’s about a guy who seeks revenge and wonders if he is evil after his mother is burned for witchcraft. While Metallica got all the fame from covering this song when they released it as a B-Side to their “Creeping Death” single (and later on their Garage, Inc. album), Diamond Head has stated that they’re flattered by the cover and the money they’ve earned from royalties paid by Metallica has played a role in keeping the band going. The intro is based on a piece by British composer Gustav Holst called “The Planets.” The piece has seven movements, each named for a planet, and the intro to “Am I Evil?” comes from the “Mars,” which is the first movement. #Metallica

On This Day in Metal July 11, 2000 Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich appeared before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee to testify about online music piracy and the future of digital music. After suing Napster over the unauthorized sharing of I Disappear, Metallica submitted a list of more than 300,000 Napster accounts they claimed were distributing the band’s music without permission. The hearing became one of the defining moments of the early internet era. While many criticized Metallica’s stance at the time, the debate helped shape the future of legal digital music, paving the way for platforms like iTunes and today’s streaming services. Looking back, was Lars right? 🤔 #Metallica #LarsUlrich #Napster #OnThisDay #ThisDayInMetal

A burst of guitar noise originally intended to sabotage the song became its most recognisable moment. Jonny Greenwood disliked how quiet “Creep” sounded and attacked his guitar just before each chorus, creating the explosive crunch that ended up defining the recording. The track appeared on Radiohead’s 1993 debut album Pablo Honey, produced by Sean Slade and Paul Q. Kolderie, and became the band’s first international hit after initially struggling in the UK. Its success soon became complicated, with Radiohead growing tired of being defined by a single song. At Rock am Ring in 1994, however, “Creep” was still the track introducing huge festival audiences to the band.

“It’s Raining Again” was written by Roger Hodgson for Supertramp’s 1982 album …Famous Last Words…. Hodgson said the song came to him on a rainy day while he was feeling down after losing a friend. Sitting by a window and playing chords on a pump organ, he began writing the song almost spontaneously. The track’s cheerful melody contrasts with its melancholy origins, reflecting Hodgson’s idea that even after difficult times, brighter days can return. The track was released in October 1982 as the lead single from …Famous Last Words… and became one of Supertramp’s biggest international hits. It reached No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 5 on the US Adult Contemporary chart, and No. 7 on the US Mainstream Rock chart. It also reached No. 26 in the UK, No. 3 in Germany, No. 2 in Switzerland, and No. 4 in Canada. One of its most memorable touches is the ending, which incorporates the traditional English nursery rhyme “It’s Raining, It’s Pouring,” adding a playful contrast to the song’s wistful theme.

“I Ran (So Far Away)” was released in 1982 as the second single from A Flock of Seagulls' self-titled debut album. Written by Mike Score, Ali Score, Frank Maudsley, and Paul Reynolds and produced by Mike Howlett, the synth-pop/new wave track became a major American breakthrough, reaching No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 3 on the Mainstream Rock chart and No. 8 on the Dance chart. It also topped the Australian Singles Chart and reached No. 7 in New Zealand, while peaking at only No. 43 in the UK. Guitarist Paul Reynolds joined the band after the song had already been written, and his distinctive, echoing guitar work became an important part of the finished recording.

On This Day in Metal June 6th, 2004 Metallica delivered one of the most memorable festival performances in metal history at the Download Festival in Donington, England. Just hours before the show, drummer Lars Ulrich was hospitalized due to a medical emergency and unable to perform. Rather than cancel the headline set, the metal community rallied together. Dave Lombardo stepped in for “Battery” and “The Four Horsemen,” while Joey Jordison handled most of the remaining set, with drum technician Flemming Larsen also helping out. The result was a legendary performance that fans still talk about today. Watch Metallica perform “Battery” with Dave Lombardo on drums below: #ThisDayInMetal #Metallica #DownloadFestival #DaveLombardo

Well, Metallica played Cardiff last night (if you didn't already know!), and what a night it was... Genuinely unbiased opinion, but that was one of the best, if not THE best gigs of the #M72tour that I have attended. Detroit was amazing. Seattle was another level. But Wales? Oh boy... The crowd in Wales were incredible... Not just for Metallica, but also for Knocked Loose and Gojira. But the sing-alongs with Metallica were something else. Never heard a crowd sing along with such passion, from beginning to end, the way they did at the Principality Stadium. That was probably the last time I will see Metallica live on stage, and what show it was 🤘 Diolch yn fawr iawn James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert. Wales loves Metallica ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 #Metallica #M72Wales #Cardiff

By 2018, “Mr. Brightside” had become something bigger than a Killers song, and Glasgow provided spectacular proof. Written by Brandon Flowers and Dave Keuning after Flowers discovered his girlfriend with another man, the track first appeared on the band’s 2004 debut album Hot Fuss and originally peaked at No. 10 in the UK. At TRNSMT on 8 July 2018, The Killers saved it for the very end, beginning with the Jacques Lu Cont remix before exploding into the familiar version. With Glasgow Green singing virtually every word back at the band, the closing performance demonstrated how a song about jealousy had evolved into a communal anthem.

The Who playing “Pinball Wizard” live at Kilburn in 1977 shows how a song Pete Townshend once dismissed as clumsy became one of the band’s most unstoppable rock moments. It was written to fit Tommy, but on stage it takes on a life of its own: loud, strange, theatrical, and completely electric.

What sounded like a triumphant anthem actually came from a painful part of Eddie Vedder’s life. “Alive” was inspired by discovering that the man he believed was his father was not his biological dad. The track appeared on Pearl Jam’s 1991 debut album Ten and reached No. 16 in the UK. At Pinkpop in 1992, “Alive” captured the raw live power driving Pearl Jam’s rapid rise.

A real tragedy from the Welsh valleys inspired one of Stereophonics’ defining early songs. Kelly Jones based “Local Boy in the Photograph” on a young man he had known through football who later died on a railway line. Jones turned the story into a tribute rather than simply dwelling on the tragedy. The track came from the band’s 1997 debut album Word Gets Around and initially reached No. 51 in the UK before a 1998 re-release climbed to No. 14. By Glastonbury that summer, Stereophonics were rapidly becoming one of Britain’s biggest new guitar bands, with the song already established as an emotional live favourite.
