Metal Anarchy

James Hetfield was recently asked about Metallica’s new album, during a recent Sharks vs. Penguins game, where Hetfield and Kirk Hammett were set to perform the National Anthem. According to Hetfield, the album is currently in the mixing stage, and should “hopefully” be out this fall.

Here’s his full statement:

“We’re mixing it now, so hopefully by fall it’ll be out and hitting people’s ears. We’re super stoked about it. It’s been a long time coming, and, you know, this is what we do. We love playing, and the next album is exactly what it’s supposed to be, so we’re excited about it.”
