METALLICA Covers RAMMSTEIN’s ‘Sonne’ In Berlin
Written by megarock on May 31, 2026
During METALLICA‘s May 30 concert at Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany, METALLICA guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo played a cover of the RAMMSTEIN classic “Sonne”. Fan-filmed video of the performance can be seen below.
METALLICA launched the “M72” world tour in Amsterdam in April 2023 and has since performed for an estimated four million fans worldwide. As with all tour dates, the band is donating a portion of ticket sales to local charities through METALLICA‘s All Within My Hands foundation. Established in 2017, the foundation has raised more than $20 million, supporting vocational and technical education, food insecurity relief and disaster response initiatives.
METALLICA added one unusual feature to its shows on the band’s recent tours: at each stop, Hammett and Trujillo have been covering songs from some of their musical heroes — often choosing songs that are far removed from the band’s traditional metal sound. The “doodles,” as the band refers to them in their setlists, are pared-down interpretations — just bass and guitar and sometimes Trujillo singing.
