A Unique Live Performance
The exclusive concert footage showcases performances from Metallica’s M72 World Tour finale in Mexico City and includes full renditions of songs like “Whiplash,” “One,” and the classic “Enter Sandman.” The event was filmed utilizing Apple’s cutting-edge Immersive Video technology that delivers high-resolution visuals paired with Spatial Audio.
Advanced Filming Techniques
To capture this extraordinary event, Apple designed a custom stage layout fitted with fourteen specialized cameras. This setup incorporated a blend of stabilized units, cable-suspended devices, and remotely operated dolly systems that traversed the stage. Audiences can expect an unprecedented level of intimacy with band members James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo—providing views comparable to being right in the heart of the action.
Revolutionary Viewing Experience
Lars Ulrich expressed enthusiasm about this new approach: “Describing it as game-changing is an understatement,” he noted. “Experiencing our show from that perspective alongside our incredible Mexico City fans—it truly immerses you in the performance.” He emphasized their desire to explore new frontiers within music experiences.
Launch Details and Additional Content
The immersive video experience debuts on Friday alongside demos of Apple Vision Pro at retail stores offering patrons a sneak peek. Additionally anticipated is Metallica’s latest EP titled *M72 World Tour: Mexico City*, which will be released on Apple Music concurrently with the video launch.
