Metallica share two official videos from their opening night at Sphere

Metallica have released professionally filmed performances of The Call Of Ktulu and …And Justice For All from the opening of Life Burns Faster in Las Vegas. Both videos were recorded at Sphere on October 1, 2026 and uploaded to the band's official channel. NME reported on the pair on October 17.

The recordings document the performances alongside the venue's panoramic visual production. …And Justice For All is the title track of the 1988 album, while The Call Of Ktulu appeared on 1984's Ride The Lightning. The opening show restored the Justice title track to the live repertoire after a lengthy absence.

Life Burns Faster continues through autumn before further dates in January, February and March 2027. These uploads specifically document the first evening. Both performances are presented separately here, preserving the official individual videos and their respective direct links.
