Metallica

In late 1991, Metallica was riding high on the phenomenal success of their self-titled album, often referred to as "The Black Album." Released just months earlier, this record marked a significant shift in their sound, infusing a more polished, mainstream approach while still holding onto their thrash roots. This album featured iconic tracks like “Enter Sandman” and “The Unforgiven,” soaring the band to new heights of popularity. The performance of “Creeping Death” from November 30, 1991, recorded at the Richfield Coliseum, falls right in the heart of this transformative period. Interestingly, just a year later, Metallica would become a household name, thanks in part to the huge impact of their live performances during this era. Their shows were notorious for their raw energy, with the band often engaging the audience in a way that made every concert feel like a unique experience.
