Metallica are nearly four months away from kicking-off their European tour with Ghost and Bokassa in continuation to support 2016’s Hardwired…To Self-Destruct. To celebrate their upcoming return, Metal Hammer caught up with Ghost’s Cardinal Copa – aka Tobias Forge and asked him what his dream Metallica setlist is.
Forge shared the following:
Intr: Ecstacy of Gold
01) Battery
02) Creeping Death
03) of Wolf and Man
04) Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
05) Fight Fire With Fire
06) Ride the Lightning
07) For Whom the Bell Tolls
08) Fade to Black
09) Blackened
10) Until It Sleeps
11) One
12) Master of Puppets
Encore:
13) Am I Evil?
14) Last Caress
15) Enter Sandman
You can read Forge’s explanation for each track here.
Looking over the Ghost frontman’s selection, this inspired the Metal Insider team to share their dream Metallica setlist. One thing you will notice is that everyone has one thing in common (well for the most part): we’re all tired of Metallica closing their set each night with “Nothing Else Matters” and “Enter Sandman”
