Samen met producer Rick Rubin werkt Metallica nog steeds hard aan het nieuwe album. Wereldwijd kijken fans reikhalzend uit naar de nieuwe release.

Velvet Revolver-drummer Matt Sorum, een goede vriend van Metallica-trommelaar Lars Ulrich, is één van de zeer weinige mensen die al nummers gehoord heeft van Metallica's komende album.

Gelukkig is hij niet te beroerd om zijn ervaringen tijdens de luistersessie te delen. Volgens Matt Sorum zijn de nieuwe nummers belachelijk snel:

“[Lars Ulrich] played me the demos (...) and I turned and looked at him and I said, ‘Master that shit and put it out.’ It’s ridiculous. The demos were sick. Eight-minute songs, all these tempo changes, crazy fast. It’s like, ‘Dude, don’t get slower when you get older, but don’t get faster!? How are you gonna play this live?’ And then me and Lars were out partying all night, and he had to go in the studio the next day and do this stupid like nine or ten minute song, and I was laughing at him — because he played me the demo of it, and it was [sings really fast drum part], so fast. I called him, and said, ‘Dude, how are you feeling?’ He was like, ‘Dude, I’m hurting.’ They’re cutting everything to tape, no fuckin’ Pro Tools — live, no clicks. Bitchin’. I dig it. I’m really excited for them.”
