Escape from the Studio '06
Encyclopedia
Escape from the Studio '06 was a 2006 concert tour by American heavy metal
band Metallica
. The tour took place during the writing process of the group's then-untitled ninth studio album, Death Magnetic
, and follows the Madly in Anger with the World Tour
in support of St. Anger
.
Previously to the tour, drummer Lars Ulrich
had hinted that they may play some material from their upcoming album, which the band also did on Escape From The Studio '95 (when they first used this tour name, under similar circumstances), where they played Load
s "2 X 4" and ReLoad
's "Devil's Dance". Metallica kept this tradition going by debuting a new song informally dubbed "The New Song" by frontman James Hetfield
, which runs for approximately 8 minutes. Due to the repetition of the words "Death is not the end" in the lyrics, many fans chose to believe this to be the name of the song, but no announcement regarding this has been made by the band. The lyrics seem to talk about reincarnation
, or, as it could be interpreted, Hetfield's 'rebirth' after undergoing alcohol rehabilitation.
During their August 12 gig in Tokyo
, the band debuted more new material, a song referred to as "The Other New Song". The song is much shorter, clocking in at just over 3 minutes. Fan reactions have been mixed, with several comparisons to work by punk pioneers The Misfits. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22new+song%22+misfits+metallica&btnG=Google+Search
After the tour's conclusion, the band reentered their San Francisco workspace/studio to continue the writing process for their new album.
In addition to a little new material, Metallica also played the Master of Puppets
album in its entirety at several of these shows, as it was the 20th anniversary of the record's release. And in particular, rarely played album song "Orion" was dedicated to its primary writer, the group's late bassist Cliff Burton
