Metallica have announced their new live album, ‘Metallica and San Francisco Symphony: S&M2’ — you can check out a trailer for its accompanying concert film below.
‘S&M2’ is the follow-up to the band’s 1999 live album ‘S&M’, and was recorded in San Francisco over two nights in September 2019 with the San Francisco Symphony to commemorate the 20th anniversary of ‘S&M’.
The ‘S&M2’ concert film was subsequently screened in cinemas worldwide for one night only on October 9, 2019.
