METALLICA: Danish Date Added
February 23, 2007METALLICA has issued the following update via its official web site:
"After much speculating — well, at least a half hour's worth — and the rumor mill working overtime, we (especially the drummer) are psyched to announce that we will make our 2007 'Sick of the Studio' tour of Scandinavia complete by finally confirming a show in Denmark. In our continued effort to spread as much love as possible to the rest of the country, we are happy to announce we are playing Aarhus, motherfucker, July 13th at Vestereng.
"This will be the 212th show in Denmark — well, maybe closer to the 16th, give or take — and needless to say, 'TALLICA always look forward to a Danish visit and after Lars has put his relatives and friends on the guest list, we will release the few hundred remaining tickets to the public.
"Stay tuned for more of February's theme 'announce one show at a time just to be a pain in the ass.'"

METALLICA producer Rick Rubin told MTV.com last week that he wants the band to make a "defining" album when they enter the studio next month. Rubin admitted he was "really nervous" about working with the group after seeing the candid 2005 documentary about their near-breakup, "Metallica: Some Kind of Monster", but said that the band is now the opposite of how they appeared in the film. Rubin said, "They're really productive, really communicative — it seems like they really like being in the room together. It's a great process. They say they're more excited than they have been in a long time about making music...I asked them not to reinvent themselves so much as to make a defining album, like the purest of what METALLICA is."
Drummer Lars Ulrich told Rolling Stone magazine that Rubin wants to make the band sound like "the METALLICA that made them METALLICA without going backward."
METALLICA hopes to release its ninth studio effort by the end of the year.
