Kirk Hammett, the guitarist for Metallica, along with bassist Rob Trujillo, has developed a unique tradition of performing “doodles” during live shows. These are brief instrumental renditions of songs that resonate with the venue’s atmosphere. During their concert on June 8 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, they chose to honor the legendary Chuck schuldiner by playing Death’s classic track “Pull The Plug.” The performance was electrifying,though it was undeniably played at an exhilarating pace.
This tribute served as a heartfelt nod to Schuldiner’s enduring influence in the death metal genre. If you haven’t yet experienced this iconic song (especially at such a rapid tempo), be sure to check out their rendition below. Looking ahead, Metallica has an extensive lineup of tour dates scheduled for 2025 and 2026 across various locations worldwide. You can find ticket details through this link: Tickets available here.
