DENTALLICA
Drill 'Em All · The Pulling Teeth Tour

A dental-themed Metallica tribute fronted by identical-twin dentists — with an all-digital rig that fits any stage, from a living room to an arena.

The Story

Two dentists.
One drill. Zero mercy.

Dentallica turns a great gag into a genuinely hard-hitting Metallica tribute. The twist — brothers Dr. Jamie Amir and Dr. Simon Amir, identical-twin dentists, trading riffs under a giant "Drill 'Em All" banner — gets people in the door. The playing keeps them there.

Every era, played straight and loud — Enter Sandman, Master of Puppets, One, Creeping Death and deeper cuts — from a 45-minute opener to a full 2+ hour headline. But the real difference is the homework. They treat Metallica like a subject to study — surgical, almost academic: every track slowed down until each note is mapped, the guitar and bass parts pulled from the isolated stems, and the vocals worked through line by line with a coach across five years of training. Years of study, long before they ever take a stage.

"They're amazing and 100% true to the Metallica sound."As featured in the Ocala Gazette
