As promised, we've got a link to New Times Staff Writer, and former Music Editor, Niki D'Andrea's review of last night's Metallica show for Spin.com.

"If the opening night of Metallica's world tour in Glendale, AZ, Tuesday was any indication, rock's not dead. Check its pulse, and you'll hear the double-bass drumming of Lars Ulrich."

Over at Spin.com you'll also find a slideshow shot by New Times freelancer Luke Howerda, including the above image.

Oh, and of course we had our own review and pictures below, if you're interested in that.
