Metallica

In March 2017, Metallica performed “For Whom the Bell Tolls” at Foro Sol in Mexico City, a powerful showcase during their “WorldWired Tour.” At this moment in their career, the band had just released “Hardwired... to Self-Destruct” in 2016, their first studio album in over eight years. This album marked a significant comeback, brimming with aggressive riffs and introspective lyrics that resonate with both old fans and newcomers. Before the live recording, Metallica had not only reaffirmed their status as metal giants but also explored themes of mortality and struggle—so fitting for "For Whom the Bell Tolls," a track that speaks to the brutal realities of war. The energy captured in this performance underscores the band’s legendary ability to connect with audiences, showcasing that even after decades, their fire burns brightly and fiercely. How amazing is it that after all these years, they still pack venues like Foro Sol?
