Metallica Covers Rammstein’s “Sonne” During Berlin Concert
According to a single source, Metallica members Robert Trujillo and Kirk Hammett performed a cover of Rammstein’s “Sonne” during a concert in Berlin on Saturday, May 30th. The performance was part of the duo’s mid-concert “doodle” jams on the band’s ongoing M72 World Tour. The crowd joined in with Trujillo, who displayed a German singing voice, and the song felt massive despite lacking drums and a fuller dual guitar sound. Previous “doodles” on the tour have included covers of “El Paso” by Marty Robbins, “When Doves Cry” by Prince, and “Major Tom” by Peter Schilling. Following its UK/European run, Metallica is set to begin a residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere on October 1st, running through March 13th, 2027.
