Metallica released a new acoustic version of “Blackened”, which was recorded while the band is self-isolated at their homes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Metallica’s YouTube page, they said, “Here’s a little something we cooked up over the last few days. Hope you’re all safe & sound.”
Last week Lars Ulrich joined Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff for his livestreamed fireside. During the interview, Lars said that if the quarantine continues there is a good chance that Metallica could get together to write and record a new album.
“Will there be a Metallica quarantine record? I can’t tell you, because, again, I don’t know how long the quarantine will last. But if you and I and the rest of the world are sitting here six months from now or a year from now, I’d say there’s a very good chance.”
