Metallica<\/a> have released pro-shot footage of their performance of Master Of Puppets<\/a> in front of just 500 people.<\/p>\n

The video, available to watch below, is taken from the heavy metal<\/a> titans\u2019 intimate performance at the Stephen Talkhouse in Long Island, New York, on August 28. They played the show, one of the smallest of their career, to mark the launch of Maximum Metallica, a new channel on US radio station SiriusXM dedicated to broadcasting Metallica music, interviews, live recordings and more.<\/p>\n

Metal Hammer journalist Lina Khatib attended the show and gave it a perfect five stars in her review<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is their first live hit-out since they shared the stage with Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> at [the late singer\u2019s July retirement concert] Back To The Beginning, and one of the smallest shows of their career,\u201d Khatib wrote. \u201cBut the sound is colossal, the vibe electric. Even Metallica\u2019s families and friends shake their heads in disbelief, telling me they \u2018can\u2019t remember the last time we saw them like this\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Metallica are touring Oceania and the Middle East in November and December, and they\u2019ll play across Europe from May to July. Support at the shows will come from Pantera, Avatar, Gojira<\/a> and Knocked Loose.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also been heavily rumoured recently that the band are hoping to host a residency at Las Vegas multimedia venue The Sphere next year. Drummer Lars Ulrich didn\u2019t confirm nor deny the reports during an interview with Howard Stern last month, though bassist Robert Trujillo openly fantasised about what the residency would look like<\/a> while talking to the shock jock the following week.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo heavy rock band has done this,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of history with our music and a lot of, I think there\u2019s potential for a lot of visual stimulation on this. And I can\u2019t wait to be a part of it. So let\u2019s see what happens, yeah.\u201d<\/p>\n
