Last night, Metallica gave fans a Halloween treat. They unveiled a new song, "Atlas, Rise!"
It's the third song to be released from the band's new double album, Hardwired … to Self-Destruct, which drops this month—November 18.
The six-minute track, which you can check out below, comes with a music video that shows the metal legends hard at work in the recording studio. By default, it also shows plenty of gear, including Kirk Hammett's "Peter Green" Les Paul and an abundance of recording equipment.
The band also recently posted a video recap of their September 27 appearance at New York City's Webster Hall. You can watch that clip, which includes a live performance of "For Whom the Bell Tolls," below.
“He would beat the crap out of the guitar. The result can best be described as Jackson Pollock trying to play like John Lee Hooker”: Aggressively bizarre, Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica remains one of the craziest guitar-driven albums ever made
“There is no-one who can do this process with me as well as he can”: Alex Van Halen says a new Van Halen album is in the works – and he’s recruited Steve Lukather to help him complete it
