VIDEO: Metallica perform 1983 rarity in Philadelphia



Metallica are streaming video of the first performance in five years of their 1983 rarity, “Phantom Lord”, from an October 25 show at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA as part their fall North American tour.

The band last performed the tune from their 1983 debut, “Kill ‘Em All”, at their self-curated Orion Music + More festival in Detroit, MI in 2013.

During the fall shows in support of “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct”, Metallica released a series of expanded 30th anniversary reissues of their 1988 album, “…And Justice For All.”

The group’s fourth album – and first with bassist Jason Newsted – reached No. 6 on the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than 8 million copies in the country.

A new 3CD package includes the remastered album and two discs of rough mixes, demos and live tracks alongside an expanded booklet including unseen photos by Ross Halfin.

The remastered set is also available in multiple configurations, including a Standard Double 180 gram LP, Standard CD, cassette, Limited Edition Deluxe Box Set and digitally as a Standard album (available to stream and download), an Expanded Edition (available for download only), and a Digital Deluxe Box Set (available for streaming and download).

Metallica will wrap up their 2018 live schedule in Fresno, CA on December 9 before resuming the North American trek in mid-January.
