Ride the Lightning

Hint: It's an early classic.

In the Spring '23 issue of CREEM, Michael Alago opened up about what it was like being a young A&R executive for Elektra Records and signing Metallica.

Over the course of their career, Metallica have played live in or around Kansas City 15 different times; their KC debut was on Feb. 16, 1985.

Metallica have released the third and final live video from their recent celebration of Jonny and Marsha Zazula: "The Call of Ktulu."

While slower than the stereotypical thrash tune, "Creeping Death" keeps the efforts Metallica made with 'Kill 'Em All' alive and strong.
