Metallica To Make Videos For Every Song On New Album

(Classic Rock) Metallica are planning to make a music video for every song on their forthcoming album "Hardwired... To Self-Destruct", according to drummer Lars Ulrich.

The band's 10th album is released on November 18 and so far they have issued videos for the tracks Hardwired, Moth Into Flame and Atlas, Rise! Drummer Lars Ulrich says the band have been sure to stay active online in the run-up to the album's launch.

He tells The Straits Times: "We like to stay active on social media. It's fun to do stuff where it instantly shows up all over the world. You have to accept the way that the world is spinning. Now that YouTube is the world's biggest television station, we figured we may as well knock a video out for every song."

Metallica have been recording the videos while making the album and on downtime from their current run of tour dates. Ulrich adds: "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." Read more here.
