VIDEO: Metallica perform 1984 classic at Austin City Limits Music Festival



Metallica are streaming video of an October 13 performance of their 1984 classic, “Creeping Death”, filmed during the band’s headline set during the second weekend of the 2018 edition of the Austin City Limits Music Festival.

The tune was the only single released from the group’s second album, “Ride The Lightning”, which peaked at No. 48 on the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than 6 million in the country.

As they did a week earlier, the veteran metal outfit topped the Saturday night bill at Austin’s Zilker Park during the three-day event, which also featured Paul McCartney, Deftones, Arctic Monkeys and many others.

Part of Metallica’s fall tour of North America, the Texas concerts took place ahead of the next release in the band’s ongoing reissue series.

On November 2, Metallica will issue an expanded 30th anniversary editions of their 1988 album, “…And Justice For All.”

A 3CD set includes the remastered album and two discs of rough mixes, demos and live tracks alongside an expanded booklet including unseen photos by Ross Halfin.

The remastered set will also be available in multiple configurations, including a Standard Double 180 gram LP, Standard CD, cassette, Limited Edition Deluxe Box Set and digitally as a Standard album (available to stream and download), an Expanded Edition (available for download only), and a Digital Deluxe Box Set (available for streaming and download).
