METALLICA: 20 New Songs In The Can

January 18, 2002

METALLICA have completed the basic skeletons of 20 new songs during the most recent songwriting sessions for the group's next album, drummer Lars Ulrich revealed in an interview published in the latest issue of METALLICA fan magazine So What. Ulrich also stated that the much-talked-about collaboration between METALLICA, rapper JA RULE and producer Swizz Beatz—which apparently follows a BEASTIE BOYS-style direction, with full-on rapping mixed in with heavy guitars—is due to be issued in February. In other news, METALLICA frontman James Hetfield and wife Francesca are expecting their third child in late January/early February.
