LOS
ANGELES (AP) — Metallica is bringing their powerhouse
performance from Mexico City straight to viewers' faces courtesy
of Apple.
The company said Tuesday that Metallica's show will be delivered
in an immersive concert experience on the Apple Vision Pro video
headset on Friday. The concert experience will feature the
band's iconic hits including “Whiplash,” “One” and “Enter
Sandman.”
Filmed during the sold-out finale of their M72 World Tour last
year, Metallica's concert brings viewers closer to James
Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo with
high-resolution, 180-degree video and immersive spatial audio.
“With Metallica on Apple Vision Pro, you feel like you’re right
there: front row, backstage, and even on stage with one of the
biggest bands of all time," said Tor Myhren, vice president of
marketing communications at Apple.
The company said Apple built a custom stage layout featuring 14
of their immersive video cameras, including some that moved
around the stage.
If you don't own one of the $3,500 headsets, don't worry.
Customers are able to book a Vision Pro demo to experience
Metallica's performance at their local Apple store.
Other performances that have been exclusively shown on the
Vision Pro includes Alicia Keys and Raye. The Weeknd also had
his immersive music experience called “The Weeknd: Open Hearts.”
