Metallica
Metallica
Sat 28 Jun 2014 Pyramid Stage
Magnetic and Majestic

Late last year, Saturday's headliners played an all-together different stage; a dome in Antarctica in front of competition winners and scientists, transmitted to the audience through headphones. This year these behemoths of heavy metal take on one of the hottest stages in rock history by ascending the Glastonbury Pyramid.

Formed by drummer Lars Ulrich placing an ad in an LA newspaper asking for fellow musicians inspired by Iron Maiden, they've gone on to sell over 110 million records worldwide, negotiating tragedy, broken marriages and bitter disputes on the way.

Taking their place in the "big four" of thrash metal alongside Slayer, Anthrax and Megadeth, the band set a trail for the likes of Korn to follow, innovating the confines of speed and volume with each new release. Over the last couple of years they've set up their own label Blackened Recordings, released a concert film plus started their own music festival - so they're also at Glasto to pick up some tips from the best.

They have publicly said that 2014 will be spent with Rick Rubin recording their tenth album, so it's a treat to pull them out of the studio for their headline set. Sparks are bound to fly when these rebellious, thrash metal gods start the unmistakable riff of Enter Sandman to a crowd of reverent spectators.

Ulrich has previously claimed that Glastonbury is the 'one festival to elude us' - 2014 is the year when the splendour of Metallica will finally be revealed at Worthy Farm.
