Metallica Look To Rick Rubin For Next Album
Death Magnetic producer will be back for new record
Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo has revealed that the band will work once again with the legendary producer on the follow up to 2008's career reviving Death Magnetic.
He said, "Yeah, I love working with Rick. Rick, to me, he's sort of a Zen guru spirit that Metallica needs right now. Not to say that we need it, because we're getting along incredibly well, we're really excited to write some new music. There's no shortage of riffage in Metallica world right now. And I think it's only gonna get better."
Trujillo also spoke about their forthcoming tour as part of the Big Four of Thrash, alongside Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax. The final date of the tour in October will see them visit India for the very first time.
He said, "It's an honour for all of us that we get to be a metal band and share our music with fans in India. We love travelling and experiencing other cultures."
