Watch Metallica Play ‘Fixxxer’ Live For The First Time During Career-Spanning 40th Anniversary Show

Last night, Metallica played their first of two 40th anniversary shows at San Francisco’s Chase Center. The career-spanning set saw the metal icons perform at least one song off each of their 10 studio albums, plus tracks off their live album S&M and covers album Garage Inc.   They kicked off the show with Kill ‘Em All opener “Hit the Lights” and went on to play staples like “Creeping Death,” “One,” “Nothing Else Matters” and “Sad but True.” But the setlist wasn’t only hits. Metallica also treated fans to deep cuts, playing “Trapped Under Ice” for the first time since 2012 and live-debuting the eight-minute Reload track “Fixxxer.”   A few songs in, frontman James Hetfield thanked fans for sticking with them the past four decades. “We are grateful that you have been along with us for 40 years, and we are so happy that you’re here still after all this time,” he said. “It still blows my mind. Because we were created to do this. I know it.”   For those who weren’t able to snag tickets (or get to San Francisco) for the show last night or Sunday, Metallica 40th Anniversary Live is streaming for free via Prime Video and Amazon Music.
