Watch Metallica Play “Enter Sandman” On Stephen Colbert’s Post-Super Bowl Special
The Weeknd was the big star of the weekend, but a few hours after the Super Bowl was finished and Tom Brady’s Buccaneers had prevailed, Metallica helped sleep-deprived viewers enter night. From their San Francisco practice space, performed “Enter Sandman,” the monster hit and future Mariano Rivera theme song from their self-titled 1991 blockbuster (aka “The Black Album”). They sounded great.
The amps in the background represented various noteworthy Metallica shows, which, according to the YouTube caption, include the following:
