Absolutely essential for any real Metallica fan, this DVD includes the full set from their performance with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. They play plenty of their classics with a good selection from all of their albums, as well as two brand new songs. All band members are on top form, and as usual James Hetfield provides some amusing narration inbetween songs. The DVD also includes a 'making of' documentary, and some multi-angle options which allow you to focus on any one of the band members in certain songs. Not that you need to control the camera yourself, because this recording of the concert is superbly directed and the orchestra is brilliantly conducted by Michael Kamen.
Full track list, PART ONE: Call of Ktulu, Master of Puppets, Of Wolf and Man, The Thing That Should Not Be, Fuel, The Memory Remains, No Leaf Clover (new), Hero of the Day, Devil's Dance, Bleeding Me.
PART TWO: Nothing Else Matters, Until it Sleeps, For Whom The Bell Tolls, -Human (new), Whereever I May Roam, The Outlaw Torn, Sad But True, One, Enter Sandman, Battery.
s&m is by far the best metallica album, and this is a nice visual addition to the experience.
