Kirk Hammett Announces Debut Solo Album Plans, Prepares 767 Riffs for Metallica
Kirk Hammett of Metallica is currently working on his debut solo album, which he describes as a fusion of multiple genres including classical, heavy, and funk influences. Unlike his previous instrumental EP, 'Portals', this new album will feature vocal tracks, although he has not yet confirmed a singer. In addition to his solo work, Hammett has amassed 767 new riffs for the next Metallica album, but he does not anticipate the band starting recording until at least a year from now, after their ongoing tour concludes in November. Hammett expressed excitement about the creative process, noting the challenge of organizing so many riff ideas. He also hinted at the possibility of revisiting musical elements from Metallica's 'Load' and 'Reload' albums, which have gained newfound appreciation from fans. Alongside his music projects, Hammett has released a coffee table book showcasing his guitar collection.
