By published

A YouTube user named iamSamsiam has seamless connected all the riffs from Metallica’s new album, Hardwired…to Self-Destruct, in one epic video, which you can watch below.

The album’s 12 songs are based in the key of E, and the riffs use the open E string quite often, which makes fusing them into one monster riff rather irresistible.

Hardwired…to Self-Destruct was released November 18.
