Metallica: Live Performance of Creeping Death at Hartwall Arena, Helsinki
In 2018, when Metallica delivered a powerhouse performance of "Creeping Death" in Helsinki, they were riding high on the wave of their album *Hardwired... to Self-Destruct*, which had been released in late 2016. This album marked a significant return to form for the band, showcasing their classic thrash metal roots while also reflecting a more mature sound. The *WorldWired Tour* that included this concert highlighted Metallica's incredible ability to engage with audiences worldwide, re-establishing them as a dominant force in metal. Interestingly, *Hardwired... to Self-Destruct* was also the band's first studio album in eight years, creating a buzz among fans eagerly anticipating new material. The energy of their live performances, such as that night in Helsinki, is a testament to their enduring legacy and connection to their fans, proving that even decades into their career, Metallica still knows how to bring the house down.
