‘Live In Fear': Metallica’s Latest Video Features ‘Creeping Death’ Live in Germany
On June 24, 2022, Metallica invaded Download Germany in Hockenheim as they continued their whirlwind European tour. Staying true to the sets that preceded this gig, Metallica put together an epic show that spanned their discography for tens of thousands of screaming fans.
The entire Download Germany show is available to stream and download at LiveMetallica.com and nugs.net; as expected, the one-two punch of "Whiplash" and "Creeping Death" served as a heavy, unforgettable opening to the show. Metallica's latest video release captures the live energy of "Creeping Death" in Hockenheim—check it out below.

The performance of "Creeping Death" at Download Germany marked Metallica's 1,557th time playing the song onstage, making it one of their most popular songs to include in their setlists.
They debuted it in their encore performance at Keystone in Palo Alto, Calif., on Halloween 1983; this was nearly nine months before Ride the Lightning hit the streets. The track would later be released as the only official single from the band's sophomore LP. The international single release included the band's studio covers of Diamond Head's "Am I Evil?" and Blitzkrieg's "Blitzkrieg."
