Metallica Is Plotting A Major Tour Of The USA For Next Spring
In an interview with Rolling Stone Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich announced the band is plotting their first extensive tour of the USA since 2009. “It’s time to come back, and do some proper penetration of America.”
Supporting their new album “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct, due out on November 18th, Ulrich discussed playing songs from the new album live:
“Some of the stuff on ‘Death Magnetic’ was pretty cerebral. You had to really think about what the next crazy part is that was coming up. Some of the songs from the new record are a little more physical. It’s gonna be a lot of fun to play this. Also, some of these songs are a little shorter than the ones on ‘Death Magnetic’. I think it’s gonna be a lot of fun to throw many of these songs in, but we’ll change the setlist every night like we always do.”
Hardwired…To Self-Destruct was produced by Greg Fidelman with Ulrich and frontman James Hetfield.
The effort will be issued on double CD, vinyl and digital download. A deluxe version will feature a bonus disc containing the riffs that formed the origins of the album along with “The Lords Of Summer”, which the band debuted on tour a couple of years ago.
Asked if the new album’s first single, ‘Hardwired’, is representative of the rest of the album, Hetfield told Pioneer Press: “It’s representative of Metallica, for sure. The whole record is not that, though. It’s one of many parts. It’s not all thrashy, it’s not all mid-tempo rockers, it’s not all ballads or instrumentals or whatever.”

Video: Metallica – Hardwired Behind The Scenes Clip Released, More New Album Details
Metallica has released a behind the scenes video from the making of their forthcoming album, Hardwired… To Self-Destruct, due on November 18th from Blackened Records. You can watch the nine-minute video from the writing and recording sessions for the new album, at this link or below:
Hardwired… To Self-Destruct is the long-awaited follow-up to 2008’s Death Magnetic, and is a double album containing a dozen songs and nearly 80 minutes of music.
Drummer Lars Ulrich told Fox 9 that the band played Hardwired.. “all in the same room” for the first time ob Monday, August 15 in preparation for the Minneapolis concert on 8/20. “This is as fresh off the assembly line as rock and roll gets.” he remarked.
Referring to the track ‘Hardwired’ he continued: “That’s actually the last song we wrote for the record. We started this album by throwing different ideas around. The shape of it, as a collection of songs, didn’t come into focus until we were deep into it. At that point, the songs were getting tighter, shorter and leaner.”
He continued: “A couple of months ago, we were sitting there taking stock of the record and thought maybe we should write one more fast, little crazy song, and that became ‘Hardwired’. It just kind of happened. I think James (Hetfield) and I wrote and recorded it in less than a week, which, for us, is basically a nanosecond.”
Hardwired…To Self-Destruct was produced by Greg Fidelman with Hetfield and Ulrich. The band recorded the disc at its own studio and is still putting the finishing touches on the LP.
