With Metallica scheduled to enter the studio later this month, the band has been tight-lipped on what kind of project they're going to be recording. But whether it's a whole new album or not - which is unlikely - Ulrich told Metal Hammer magazine that there will be no shortage of material when studio album number 10 does get underway. He explained, "James told me in Australia that he had over 700 (new) riffs. That was slightly overwhelming. When I spoke to him yesterday, he told me that he'd been playing guitar again in the last couple of weeks. And listen, when James tunes his guitar, he comes up with three to five usable guitar riffs.
