METALLICA: Watch Behind-The-Scenes Footage From Making Of 'Confusion' Video

Behind-the-scenes footage from the making of METALLICA‘s official video for the song “Confusion” can be seen below. The clip, in which one soldier’s civilian life blurs into a battlefield, was directed by Claire Marie Vogel, who cuts back and forth between a woman fighting in a war zone and working in a mundane office.

“Confusion” is taken from METALLICA‘s latest album, “Hardwired… To Self-Destruct”, which debuted as expected at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 album chart on November 27, selling 291,000 copies in its first week of release. Both of the band’s previous outings, 2008’s “Death Magnetic” and 2003’s “St. Anger”, sold more copies in shortened sales weeks. “Death Magnetic” moved 490,000 copies in a three-day window, while “St. Anger” shifted 418,000 copies in a similar frame.

Nevertheless, the overall fan reaction to the new disc has inspired the band to release its next record sooner. Frontman James Hetfield told Italy’s Linea Rock, “At least for now, we’ve booked out two years (of touring), at least. So I can’t predict the future, but… I would like to make some new music sooner than eight years, for sure. (You get) such a pleasure and a joy of hearing your new music and having other people hear it. So we don’t wanna wait that long.”

As previously reported, METALLICA will play a special intimate show next Thursday (December 15) at the Fonda Theater in Hollywood, California.

All proceeds from the sale of tickets to this show will be donated to Los Angeles Regional Food Bank. Fans are also encouraged to bring canned foods and non-perishable items to the show for donation as well. METALLICA just played a similar show in Toronto, with proceeds also going to a food bank in that city.
