Die Metal-Urgesteine Metallica arbeiten aktuell an einem neuen Album sowie an einem 3D-Film. Über letzteren gibt es allerdings bisher wenig zu berichten außer dass dieser 2013 erscheinen soll. Das neue Werk hingegen soll schon 2012 das Licht der Welt erblickt. Ein Statement zum 3D-Film gibt es hier:
“Happy New Year!!! As you know, we generally make it a policy not to comment on gossip or rumors, but we also pride ourselves on being first with ‘Tallica news. So, with that said, the more astute of you may have noticed a couple of mentions in trade publications, and most recently in the new issue of Rolling Stone, that a Metallica 3D movie is in the works. We’re here to tell you that, yes, there is indeed a 3D project in the very early stages of production! We wish we could tell you more right now, but we don’t have all the finer points nailed down just yet. What we can tell you is that we are planning on being in a theatre near you sometime in 2013 and as you hear us say ever so often, this will be the space for all the details as we finalize them.”
Laut Gitarrist Kirk Hammett wird das geplante Album wie “a heavier Black Album” klingen. Die Songs sollen kurz und auf den Punkt sein. Lassen wir uns also überraschen.
