the lords of summer

Keeping up to their promise, Metallica unveiled a brand new song titled “The Lords of Summer” at a show at Bogota, Columbia, on the 16th of March.

The song is close to 8 minutes in length, and came as a surprise to the fans in between a setlist of older hits like “The Unforgiven” and “… And Justice for All”.

The band had previously announced the premiere on their Social Media pages, and had also posted images from the studio. “Working out the kinks in the new song that we’ll be debuting in South America in a couple days.” “Jammin’ on a new tune at HQ and getting it ready to go to South America in a couple days.”
