On the 25th, Metallica performed at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and had a surprise on their set.
The “Phantom Lord” track from Kill ‘Em All (1982) was played for the first time in five years and the group filmed the moment for all fans to watch.
The set was part of the US tour WorldWired in support of the release of Hardwired … to Self-Destruct (2016).
Check it out:
The song
“Phantom Lord” is from Kill ‘Em All, the debut studio album by Metallica, released on July 25, 1983, by the independent record label Megaforce Records. Kill ‘Em All is regarded as a groundbreaking album for thrash metal because of its precise musicianship, which fuses new wave of British heavy metal riffs with hardcore punk tempos.

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago.
Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions.
After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world!
