Metallica broke the record for the biggest audience ever at London's O2 Arena on Saturday (March 28th).

The band, who set the original record of 18,000 last September, were watched by 19,017 fans at the one off concert.

The gig, Metallica's third appearance at the venue in the last six months, saw the group showcase recent album 'Death Magnetic'.

Metallica will return to the UK in August to headline the Sonisphere festival at Knebworth House.

You can see highlights from the band's recent performances at the O2 Arena below.
