METALLICA To Shoot Official Videos For Every Song On Hardwired...To Self Destruct - "It's Crazy, But At The Same Time, Fun"
November 2, 2016, 8 years ago
Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich recently spoke with Singapore's The Straits Times about the band's forthcoming album, Hardwired... To Self Destruct, and revealed the band plans to release a video "for every song on the new album."
Ulrich: "The practicality of shooting 12 music videos is kind of crazy, especially when you're trying to promote your record, and you're all over the place, and trying to make sure it doesn't leak. It's crazy but, at the same time, fun."

Metallica are streaming their new song, “Atlas, Rise!”. The song is the third track to be released from Metallica's forthcoming album, Hardwired...To Self-Destruct, due for release on the band's own Blackened Recordings on November 18th and follows previously released tracks "Hardwired" and "Moth Into Flame".
Says Metallica: “Less than three weeks now until all twelve new tracks from Hardwired…To Self-Destruct are cut loose for good and today we’re proud to bring you the third and final sneak peek from the album, “Atlas, Rise!”. Hopefully, you will hear it on your local radio station and check out the video by Clark Eddy, our master editor and the unsung hero of the making-of-the-album “behind the scenes” clips that have graced Metallica.com and Mission Metallica over the years.
“It’s been a crazy, exciting, hectic, insane wild ride since we unleashed the first song and title track to the album on August 18th and if you have somehow managed to avoid us since then, Hardwired…To Self-Destruct hits the streets on November 18, 2016. The album was produced by Greg Fidelman, along with James and Lars, and is available for pre-order in a variety of configurations including 12 songs on a double CD, vinyl, digital download, as well as a deluxe version including cover songs and live tracks.
“We’re looking forward to celebrating with you in the coming weeks, months and years as we’ll be visiting Europe in a couple of weeks, have a few other tricks up our sleeves for the remainder of the year, and of course, the WorldWired tour invades in 2017. See you soon!”
