The way James stands and holds his guitar when he plays the very first opening riff exactly looks like the James from the late 80's. They are definitely still living and feeling it!! \m/
Metallica will live hopefully not decades but centuries, their talent from performance, song writing, and pure talent has been unmatched in my lifetime, and I don't expect thar to change anytime soon
Of all the 48 songs they've played during this tour, Battery was the only one they didn't give us a video on YT. Great Job, we can now all stream the full M72 setlist!
Battery was my Introduction to Metallica. 14 years old, in my buddy's older Brothers car & he sticks Master of Puppets into the cassette player. 38 years later it's still one of my favourites
Nice. I was 15, had heard the Black album but my Dad got me Puppets and Kill ‘Em All CDs for Christmas. Stuck Puppets on and that opening just floored me 🤘 15 years later it still gives me chills
The no repeat weekend Minneapolis this was the one song I wanted to hear. This was the best song played from that weekend and the best moment of my life
I agree. This and the power of For Whom the bell tolls was the best that day. For whom the bell tolls, Battery, one, and moth into flame were the best for me
@@gabejkrebs I thought it was a little "out of order" that they opened with Whiplash, but then went right into For Whom the Bell Tolls instead of Ride the Lightning (which was right after). Still a 9.5/10 night.
i was snake pit chicago and i will say im jealous i didnt get to hear battery but getting to hear and watch blackened and fight fire with fire in front of me was the best thing i could ever ask for
I really wanted to see them in Seattle, but due to procrastination and a few other things in life, I didn't get a chance to buy tickets for that show. Oh well.
Dude, I'm a massive Metallica fanboy, but this performance at this stage of their career is just insanely energetic, precise and powerful Best band ever without a shadow of a doubt for me.
I was at both the Friday and Sunday show with two of my nephews. It was their first concert ever. After the Sunday show, I told them “Well, boys, now every concert you see will be competing for second place because how the fuck do you top two days of Metallica?”
In 1987 as a teenager who had escaped war in Afghanistan and moved to San Francisco Bay Area with his family, I was eager to go back to Afghanistan to fight the invading "Soviet Union" army and perform Islamic duty of Jihad and defend Islam against the "infidels". But then I heard this song which changed everything. I was convinced that this music was way better than Jihad. Metallica is the reason I didn't go back to Afghanistan to take part in a war in which countless people were killed. Metallica prevented one Afghan teenager from becoming a potential terrorist. Thank you Metallica!
I just went back in time to 1986 at 1:45 and just saw myself as a teenager thrashing and headbanging during their tour with Ozzy. Man, those were good days and not a care in the world but just pure adrenaline on volume 11. To see them back then and to see kids today doing no different is pretty damn metal AF!
That was clean, fast and beautiful. Never ever forget how much these guys changed the face of metal forever. And can still deliver the goods all these years later. 🤘🙂🤘
SAME!!! Saw them open for Ozzy on The Damage Incorporated tour!!! I was only 13 and my young mind was blown away!!! I’m so glad I had the pleasure of seeing the legend performing on bass. He was an absolutely beast performing live so tragic he passed away months after this show.
Thank you for the love you have for your audience, you give your heart, your soul on stage and on top of that you share these sequences. Metallica, you know, I love you...
i was there for this and the buildup was perfect especially since most people weren't expecting them to play Battery. the yellow spotlight kicking on when the beat dropped and lighting up James was so awesome to see in person, i miss this concert, such a cool experience‼️🖤
Amazing all the complete song, the Glorious bridge! And Lars playing the Tones tempos in right way and double bass sound brutal, Rob un his bass very great!! Kirk's solo and riffs amazing and James is a God of Metal!!! Long live METALLICA for all time 🤟😎🤘
Holy shit you guys sound studio quality and tight as brutal fk. Give your sound man a raise. Great mix on my new killer headphones here. Drums sound great. Nice job, Lars.
I was at the show. Battery was one of the best songs performed that night. For me the best songs that night were: For Whom The Bell Tolls, Battery, One, and Moth Into Flame.
I could only go to the first night as we had to drive back to Wyoming so my wife and son could start school Monday morning. I wish I could have attended the second night for the first three songs you mentioned.
@@ejengelhaupt127 I could only attend the second night. I know they played "Fade to black" on night one the day that you attended. Fade to black is my favorite Metallica song
I think Lars sounds good in these videos. Too many people bitch about him being imperfect. He's like 60 and probably kicking more ass than 95 percent of the complainers ever will.
i was there both nights. night 1, king nothing and orion were my favorites. night two battery and inamorata were incredible. hearing the intro to this live gave me goosebumps! cheers metallica, thank you for putting on one hell of a weekend in minneapolis and giving me and my father, who got me into metal as a young kid when st anger came out, a weekend we will remember forever.
Absolutely my favorite band growing up. They just played my home state(MN) and I couldn't afford multiple tickets, and going by myself is asking for trouble. I may never see them live, but these guys were my musical idols growing up. At least we get to see them via the internet, versus not at ALL back in the day if you were low income, before the internet.....ROCK!!!!
Just as I never tire of hearing it, I'm sure they never tire of playing it. Iconic. Still remember exactly when and where I was the first time I ever heard it. Definitely a 'whoa' moment as a little kid.
My second Metallica experience. Went the Friday before in Chicago. I will go to every Metallica concert that can ever go too. Two of the best nights of my life.
This hit closer to the way the original hits. Good job on playing the bridge. Hopefully this heralds a change for other songs like Blackened, The Four Horsemen and No Remorse that have been robbed of their interludes for decades.
THEY PLAYED THE FOCKING BRIDGE
PERIOD EXCALMTION POINT
LETS GOOOOOO
There's a 1st time for everything I guess 😂
Best bridge ever biatches 🤘
They’ve been playing it the whole tour.
Mind you, they are 60+ years old. Just unbelievable!!!
That’s what happens when your constantly moving
Lots of bands are in their 60s and play like this

Same!
Ahh the cassette days :)
I was 11 as well first time ever hearing heavy metal. Been hooked ever since. This song changed something inside me

That shot at 5:05 is GORGEOUS! Especially how the camera angle shifts a little. Glad they're playing the bridge for the M72 tour now 🥹💛
I'm savoring every moment of Metallica while they're still able to give us these fantastic performances. Don't take it for granted.
I really wanted to see them in Seattle, but due to procrastination and a few other things in life, I didn't get a chance to buy tickets for that show. Oh well.
Well said.
They finally post a video of Battery on the M72 tpur 🥳🎉👏
Yeah, it was time!!!
Fuck yea I got so happy when I noticed that this was posted 20 minutes while scrolling through UA-cam 😂😂
AND with the bridge section that Battery needs! So stoked when they kicked into it as I was not expecting that at all.
Almost cried during the bridge. I was here in person!

How? Like fucking how are they still this energetic? They are fucking incredible. Long live metallica!
Healthy Living! they tour with chefs trainers, etc. Its awesome!

We create the battery🤘🤘🤘
Fuckin lyrics meant for thrash.
I started to like metallica when i was 9 years old ,you rock,metallica
Greatest band to walk planet Earth
My favorite Metallica song, and my first time in 3 shows seeing them play it. It was beyond amazing!

Was in the Snake Pit for this. Lars looked like a man possessed.. Loved it all!

@@babymanter0936 He IS a good drummer, did you watch the video?
yooooo ur here!
@@diegovaldes1408 I did, It’s just that there is more comments on other clips shaming him then supporting him.
One of the best performances of this song in a long time... that was perfect!
Absolutely!! I’m 52 and thought no way they could pull a performance of this track like they did. Fucking brilliant, one of the best I’ve seen
No way the one in Seattle 89 was perfect
@@ivaerz4977 that was 35 years ago
Agreed. It's usually cut shorter and higher tempo.
They've gotten tighter this whole tour. Hell yea
This video reminds me why I love Metallica so much, Lars was also on FIRE and when James screams GO 5:31 something magical happens
METALLICA is the greatest band on earth. NOTHING in life compares to a LIVE MetallicA concert.

The right decision, my friend. Your life worths more than this.
Stay safe.
I went absolutely crazy when they played this in Edmonton.
Long live Metallica!!!
If there is one line that sums up Metallica it is in this song:
Never ending potency
I cant put into words how much i love this band!!
getting to be front row for this song was one of the best moments of my life
Oh My God they did the entire thing! One of the cleanest live versions of this song!!
That freaking bass sound! 🤯

Man the bass is RIPPING in this. Incredible sound
After all, this is the song that gave Robert the job, so it's probably among his favorites
Plus he got $1 million hiring bonus 🤑
Ever since covid they turned Rob up. Changed the whole bands sound
Thank you for the love you have for your audience, you give your heart, your soul on stage and on top of that you share these sequences. Metallica, you know, I love you...
First song i ever heard at 11 years old. Made me a lifelong metal head. Still gets me every time

Finally! A video of battery on the world tour and it’s in Minnesota!
2:20 that action IS WILD 😱
Let's Go
What with all the hate and war around this crazy world, just 5 minutes watching Metallica and i feel happy again
I was at the show. Battery was one of the best songs performed that night. For me the best songs that night were:
For Whom The Bell Tolls, Battery, One, and Moth Into Flame.
I could only go to the first night as we had to drive back to Wyoming so my wife and son could start school Monday morning. I wish I could have attended the second night for the first three songs you mentioned.
@@ejengelhaupt127 I could only attend the second night. I know they played "Fade to black" on night one the day that you attended. Fade to black is my favorite Metallica song
The shows were absolutely incredible! ❤️🔥 It never gets old seeing them live. I didn't realize we'd be in the video, so that's sweet! 🤘🏼

Fucking Agree Dude.Lars is awesome 🤘🏻
I'd say 99.9%!!
Ask them how many Pro bands have they played for and for how many years.

Singing and playing this song at the same time is so fucked. James is one one of a kind.
