Twenty New Metallica Songs

METALLICA have completed the basic skeletons of 20 new songs during the most recent songwriting sessions for the group's next album, drummer Lars Ulrich revealed in an interview published in the latest issue of METALLICA fan magazine So What. Ulrich also stated that the much-talked-about collaboration between METALLICA, rapper JA RULE and producer Swizz Beatz, which apparently follows a BEASTIE BOYS-style direction, with full-on rapping mixed in with heavy guitars, is due to be issued in February. In other news, METALLICA frontman James Hetfield and wife Francesca are expecting their third child in about nine and a half weeks.

Site Update

A Mild State Of Disrepair

As I've been working on getting my development platform back up and running and looking for new hosting (both of which are almost complete), this site has fallen under a mild state of disrepair. We've been keeping the news updated as much as possible, but I've noticed a few code-level things that need fixing like the LAUNCHcast link, etc that I have not been able to fix with my personal machine down.

I should have these things fixed soon, as well as a few browser specific additions I've been playing with for the fun of exploring new technologies (custom cursors in IE6 and a dynamic sidebar in Netscape 6). Then in early February my wife is travelling overseas, so I expect to get a lot of work done :-)

As always, thanks for visiting and for your patience, and tell your metal-friends about metalunderground.com. I expect a lot of this site and hope it's appreciated. Keep metal alive!
