| Metallica will begin recording a new album in January, and drummer Lars Ulrich says that they have 25 songs to narrow down to a single album of material when they begin recording with producer Rick Rubin. More importantly, Ulrich said the album's sound will recall the seminal 1986 opus Master Of Puppets.
"What I hear sounds very lively, very spunky, got a lot of energy," Ulrich said, according to the U.K.'s NME. "I think that the shows we played over the summer, we were definitely leaner and kind of in better shape than we've been in a long time."
The band also rekindled their interest in that sound because they played the album in its entirety at several European shows over the summer. "Having to deliver Master Of Puppets for three months this summer definitely revitalized some of that stuff in us," he added. "It's been kind of fun having that in the back of our mind."
This week, Metallica released a new DVD, The Videos: 1989 - 2004. The DVD is comprised of all 21 of the band's videos, as well as the 1989 release 2 Of One, which was previously only available on VHS. Also included is "Mama Said," which never aired in North America, and extras such as "The Unforgiven" theatrical version and the Some Kind Of Monster movie trailer.
