Throwback Alert: Metallica Unleashes Lost “Breadfan” Video from ‘95 Newsted Era

Metallica just cracked open the vault and gave us a killer throwback. This newly released video shows the band ripping through “Breadfan” at Donington Park in 1995 during their Escape from the Studio concert.

It’s pure mid-90s Metallica. Jason Newsted is locked in and hammering the bass with that signature attack. His tone is sharp and nasty and right in your face.

The energy is raw and loud and fast. Metallica was running the whole show that year and it comes through. This is the band loose and fired up on a massive stage.

No Treble CEO Jody Miller is a Chicago-based bassist, guitarist, engineer, and producer best known for his bass gear demo videos and as the co-host of The Bass Nerds podcast.
