As previously reported, music blog Stereo Warning recently issued the following report:
"The release of Metallica's new album has been delayed again, sources from the band's record label told Stereo Warning.The album is now expected to hit the stores in September. Originally Lars Ulrich said it would be out in February, then the release was delayed till April.
With the band still in the studio, it was clear that April was not gonna happen. Fans can take comfort in the fact that the last time the band spent this much time in the studio the year was 1991 and the result was the Black Album. One can only hope for similar results this time!
In the meantime, the boys have lined up a few dates for their upcoming European tour this summer. I guess that means they hope to be done recording by June..."
Stay tuned for further updates.
