Kirk Hammett Says He Has A Bunch Of “Really Kick-Ass, Great Material” For Metallica’s Next Album

During a recent interview with Cosmo Music, Kirk Hammett confirmed that he already has “a lot of stuff written” for Metallica’s next album. The guitarist said the following:

“I have a lot of stuff written that I’ve put aside for the band — a lot of stuff. Because last album, I didn’t have any stuff, ’cause I lost most of my ideas when I lost my phone — over 500 musical ideas… It took me a long time to recover from that. And I got it into my head I had to produce twice as much — basically, I overcompensated. So, as it stands, as we speak, I have a lot of material — really kick-ass, great material — that I just can’t wait to show the other guys and turn into some music, record, get the album out and have more kick-ass metal.”
