November 16, 1996: As the European leg of the Poor Touring Me was winding down, we found ourselves in Stockholm for a two-night run at Globen. It's a raw counterpoint to the seminal concert film, Cunning Stunts, edited together by Brett Murray from a stack of videotapes collecting dust in the Metallica Vault.
See the full concert shot at the second show in Stockholm as part of the Load Remastered Deluxe Box Set, coming out on June 13. While you wait, watch a full performance of “Bleeding Me” now, on our YouTube channel. |

September 3, 1995: We headed north to the Arctic Circle for a little Polar Beach Party with some lucky contest winners and all of the locals in Tuktoyaktuk, Canada. It was a once-in-a-lifetime, incredibly memorable gig. Here’s a look at an early performance of “Devil’s Dance” from this ultra-special show.

August 23, 1995: A little over four years after the release of The Black Album, a small crowd at the Astoria 2 in London was the first to hear “new” Metallica music. Led by James’ Ulta-Mullet, we launched into “2 x 4,” a greasy groove about a piece of wood.
See this alongside other performances of the song from Donington & Tuktoyaktuk within the Load Remastered Deluxe Box Set, coming out on June 13. In the meantime, watch the full vid on our YouTube channel and listen to it on your favorite streaming service. |
