Metallica’s James Hetfield has shared a video of him rocking out to Motorhead’s Ace Of Spades behind the wheel of his car.

The vocalist and guitarist uploaded the clip to mark Memorial Day Weekend in the US, and it sees him – horns up – blasting out the classic track while he sings along.

Check out the video below.

Metallica will resume their mammoth WorldWired tour next month, when they play at Dublin’s Slane Castle. That show will be followed by further dates across Europe, the UK and Russia over the summer.

While the band are touring in support of their latest album Hardwired… To Self-Destruct, guitarist Kirk Hammett checked in last month to report he had “a ton of material” for a new record.
