Watch Metallica Perform "Hardwired" Live in Napa Valley

"Hardwired" was the first single released from Hardwired...to Self-Destruct, hitting fans' ears on Aug. 19, 2016. They debuted it live the next day at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. That show also happened to be the first rock concert at the brand-new stadium.

This marks Metallica's first officially-released live video from their BottleRock set. If their recent run of South American shows is any indication, fans can expect a couple more BottleRock videos before Metallica share some performances from Boston Calling.
