During a conference call with reporters this week to promote the Outside Lands show, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich revealed the band’s plans following the event.
“Pretty much when we’re done with the [3D] movie [project] and with Outside Lands, which should all be wrapped up by early September,” explained Ulrich, “We’re gonna basically just concentrate on new music and try to get another Metallica record [done].”
Director Nimrod Antal will film their two shows on August 24 and 25 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada. Ulrich added, “Then the rest of the film will be shot the next two or three weeks after the shows in Vancouver, into the middle to the third week of September”. They expect a 2013 release.
As for new music, Ulrich says there’s no shortage of inspiration. “Every time James Hetfield picks up a guitar, there are some brilliant riffs that come out of it, and I try to make sure that they are all recorded and try to do my best to keep up with them and try to put some drums in behind them,” he says. “So there are, obviously, tons of ideas sitting around waiting to be had at in terms of turning ideas of James’ into songs.”
