Metallica performed their 1997 classic, “Fuel”, at The O2 Arena in London, UK on October 22 and the band are sharing professional footage from the event.

The third single from the group’s seventh album, “ReLoad”, was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance in 1999, while the project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 on its way to US sales of more than 4 million copies.

The London appearance marked Metallica’s return to the road following a rare, month-long break from their WorldWired tour in support of “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct.”

The fall European leg will wrap up with two dates in Antwerp, Belgium in early November before resuming with a spring 2018 run that will open in Lisbon, Portugal on February 1.

Following the fall shows, Metallica will release a series of 30th anniversary reissues of their 1986 album classic, “Master Of Puppets”, on November 10.

The group’s major label debut became thrash metal's first platinum album on its way to US sales of more than 6 million copies.

The remastered project will be available on CD, vinyl and digital, alongside an expanded 3CD edition and a deluxe box set.
