Born out of San Diego’s dynamic music scene, Anesthesia has been delivering an electrifying tribute to Metallica since 2018. Fronted by Adam Vito on rhythm guitar and vocals, with Terrey Barash on bass, Tony Montanha on lead guitar, and Ben “Slynkee” Douglas on drums, this powerhouse quartet channels the raw energy and precision that defined one of metal’s greatest bands.

From San Diego to Los Angeles, Orange County to the Inland Empire, Anesthesia has built a reputation for explosive performances that fans describe as “a kick in the face.” Their shows are more than concerts—they’re full-throttle journeys through Metallica’s legendary catalog, from the crushing riffs of Master of Puppets to the anthemic power of Enter Sandman. With larger-than-life stage presence and unrelenting passion, Anesthesia doesn’t just play Metallica’s music—they make audiences feel it.
