METALLICA's first collaboration with an orchestra in 21 years, "S&M2", has also been well received. Acoustic is another mode of METALLICA, along with orchestral collaboration. The latest video featuring such an unplugged show is now available. This work was filmed on "November 14, 2020 in San Rafael." This is a multi-camera pro shot of a studio live held at their own studio “HQ”. This show is not what you would call a concert. Their current tour activities have been completely halted due to the new coronavirus pandemic. Although we have held some live shows in 2020, they are mostly streamed from home, outdoors without an audience, or from a studio. First of all, let's take a look back at the summary of the few activities in 2020.・August 10: Sonoma (16 songs) ・August 12: HQ (3 songs) ・November 14: HQ (14 songs) ←★This work★ ・December 1: FOUNDERS AWARD appearance (1 song) ) This is the activity for 2020. Although we have provided several songs for events, we have only performed a large number of songs twice. This work was a performance for the charity “ALL WITHIN MY HANDS”, which was founded by METALLICA themselves. This work is a DVD of the relay pro shot from the highest peak master. The quality... it goes without saying. There is no way that the latest distribution by METALLICA of the world is terrible, it is super high quality and completely official. Rather than that, the important point of this work is the performance itself. Although it was an indoor live performance without an audience, monitors were set up all over the wall instead of the usual boring studio. Web footage of ticket buyers watching the concert is lined up. And, between songs, it is a homely program where the show progresses while chatting with the audience (?). Furthermore, the composition is also unique. It consists of two major parts, the first half being an "acoustic set" and the second half being the usual "electric set". Let's organize the contents here. Acoustic Cliff Era: Creeping Death・Jason Era: Blackened/The Unforgiven/Nothing Else Matters Turn the Page (Bob Seger)・After: All Within My Hands/Now That We're Dead/When A Blind Man Cries (DEEP PURPLE) ) Electric Cliff era: For Whom the Bell Tolls/Disposable Heroes/Master of Puppets ・Jason era: Enter Sandman/Wasting My Hate ・Others: The House of the Rising Sun (traditional folk)...and so on. I am. After all, the biggest highlight is the acoustic music. I have been playing unplugged from time to time since the 90s, but this work is top notch in quality, completeness, and preciousness. The acoustic versions of "Blackened" and "Now That We're Dead" are extremely valuable, and the arrangement of "Creeping Death" has also been boldly changed from the previous one. The ensemble with guest mandolin players and keyboardists is also wonderful, and James' son Castor Hetfield also participates in "All Within My Hands". Electric, on the other hand, is not as usual... Of course, the finale of the event will be a familiar teppan song, but there will also be some special twists and turns. After all, it surprises with a bold arrangement that is completely different from the first song "Disposable Heroes", and the following "The House of the Rising Sun" is a traditional cover that will be released for the first time in Japan. Furthermore, the first song in 9 years, “Wasting My Hate,” pops out... It is a super special gig with an elaborate design that rivals the acoustic version. If you think about it, METALLICA frequently played acoustic music during the S&M era at the end of the 90s. In 2020, when the sequel to Symphony was realized, they also performed an unplugged show with an unprecedented level of perfection. Yes, this work is not only a masterpiece of multi-camera professional shots, but also an official replacement video work that pairs with "S&M2" and symbolizes "METALLICA in a different mode." A multi-camera pro shot of the charity show “ALL WITHIN MY HANDS” held at Unplugged METALLICA “San Rafael” on November 14, 2020, born of the era that has come full circle. We will perform a total of 14 songs, the first half being acoustic and the second half being electric, while chatting with fans in a studio live broadcast that is typical of the new coronavirus pandemic. The rare unplugged version of "Blackened" and "Now That We're Dead," the boldly arranged "Creeping Death" and "Disposable Heroes," "All Within My Hands," in which James' son Caster also participates, and the premiere of "The House of The Rising Sun” and other highlights. This is the masterpiece of "Unplugged METALLICA" which serves as the official substitute. “Helping Hands Concert & Auction” HQ, San Rafael, CA, USA 14th November 2020 PRO-SHOT ACOUSTIC SET 1.
