VH1 had an interesting tid-bit on Metallica.
It seems that for the first time in the bands history they are throwing
out songs. Up until now every song that the group has recorded has made
it out to fans, according to the MTV report. But now the group is unhappy
with some of the 30 songs they have been working on for their forthcoming
CD and decided to throw out the weakest tracks to focus on the 10 to 20
strongests for inclusion on the new album which is expected to be completed
by January.
On Tuesday (Oct 29) drummer Lars Ulrich
popped into the chat room on the groups fan club site and filled fans
in on the progress of the album and told fans that they have indeed trashed
some songs that the group wasnt happy with and are currently focusing
on round two of the keepers.
A release date for the album has not been
set as of yet. The band also does not have a permanent replacement for
departed bassist Jason Newsted, thus far in the studio producer Bob Rock
has handled most of the bass duties and former Alice in Chains/Ozzy Osbourne
bass player Mike Inez has been spotted in the studio with the group, but
has not officially joined the band.
According to MTV, Lars also told fans that
Metallica will play some surprise shows at clubs, like their June performance
at club Kimos in San Francisco.
Thats about the only info we have right
now but well keep you posted on developments on this album as they become
known.
