'The Ultimate Metallica Show' – Recap

Nine Inch Nails. The Strokes. Metallica.

Boston Calling is going to be an epic weekend. Of course, we're most excited to see 'Tallica close things out on Sunday, May 29, but really, it's going to be a pretty amazing three days at the Harvard Athletic Complex. As we've been doing for weeks now, every edition of The Ultimate Metallica Show leading up to May 29 will be dedicated to getting us ready—and excited—to see Metallica return to Boston for the first time since 2017.

On Sunday night's show, we tossed up some pretty amazing covers from Metallica, including their takes on Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' "Loverman" and Killing Joke's "The Wait," and we even threw out a little country-fried rock and roll with Jon Pardi's cover of "Wherever I May Roam." And obviously, the show was full of plenty of other Metallica goodies, too.

As always, if you missed anything, we have you covered.
