Miley Cyrus is working on a Metallica cover album

Singer covered rock band at during Glastonbury set

Miley Cyrus is currently recording an album of Metallica covers.

In a new interview, the “Wrecking Ball” singer revealed that she is back in the studio following the release of single “Midnight Sky”.

“We’ve been working on a Metallica cover album and I’m here working on that,” she told Interview Magazine.

“We’re so lucky to be able to continue to work on our art during all of this. At first, it felt uninspiring and now I’ve been totally ignited.”

Cyrus first covered Metallica in 2019, when she performed the band’s classic track “Nothing Else Matters” during her Pyramid Stage set at Glastonbury.

The singer has made headlines in recent weeks for releasing a selection of musical covers during lockdown.

Earlier this week, Cyrus sent fans wild with a live version of “Zombie” by The Cranberries and “Boys Don’t Cry” by The Cure.

She also released a cover of Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” as a B-side to “Midnight Sky”.

Cyrus’s forthcoming seventh studio album, She is Miley Cyrus, is scheduled for release in November this year.

Dua Lipa and Billy Idol are reportedly among the guest features to be included.
