Metallica

In October 2021, when Metallica performed "Frantic" at Discovery Park in Sacramento during the Aftershock Festival, they were riding high on their legacy while reminding fans of their dynamic range. Just before this live gig, in 2020, the band had released the album "S&M2," a collaborative effort with the San Francisco Symphony. It was a nostalgic yet fresh take on their classic tracks, celebrating their longstanding relationship with orchestral music. What's fascinating about this performance is how it showcases not only their endurance in the heavy metal scene, but also their ability to connect with fans in live settings, even amidst the challenges brought on by the pandemic. Listening to “Frantic,” you can almost feel the energy of the crowd as they embraced the iconic sound of Metallica, a testament to their timeless appeal. It's moments like these that remind us why they’re considered legends in the world of rock.
