Metallica

As of April 19, 2025, when this live recording of "Enter Sandman" took place at the JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, Metallica had been riding the wave of their recent album, *72 Seasons*, released just the year before in 2024. This album marked a return to form, showcasing their signature heavy riffs and complex arrangements that have captivated fans for decades. Interestingly, the *M72 World Tour* itself, which this performance is part of, aimed to highlight not just their classic hits but also their newer material, creating a thrilling blend of nostalgia and fresh energy. It’s remarkable to think how *Enter Sandman*, originally released over three decades earlier, still resonates with fans, affirming Metallica's timelessness. And can you believe their ability to evolve while staying true to their roots? In every performance, like this one in Syracuse, you get that electric atmosphere, where each note played feels like a piece of history.
