"Work is continuing" on new Metallica album

Metallica has posted an update at the band's official web site saying that the band is still at work on its ninth studio album. The post stated, "Things are as you would call it, status quo, consistent, constant, invariable, unaltered, unchanged, unfailing, uniform, unvarying. Pretty much what we are trying to say is: work is continuing and all is good in the Metallica hood. As soon as we do have something new to report, you will be the first to know of course! OK, enough of this chit chat...back to work!"

Several new photos have been posted at the site, Metallica.com.

Metallica has also announced that it will record its upcoming performances at Neil Young's annual Bridge School Benefit, scheduled for October 27th and 28th at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. Both of the band's performances will be available for download at LiveMetallica.com.

The shows, which will also feature Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea and others, will benefit the Bridge School, which was co-founded by Young's wife Pegi to assist children with severe speech and physical impairments.

Metallica's next album is expected out sometime in early 2008.
