[Metal] Album: Metallica - Death Magnetic

[Woolies]

With a "Mission Metallica" website set up at http://missionmetallica.com/ promising fans "Experience the album... before it's done" it looks as though Amazon.com have let slip the US release date by prematurely listing the album for pre-ordering before release on the 28th October 2008.

Of course the only confirmed details from the and or record label are that Metallica's new studio album, their ninth to date, will be released "soon".

I bet they're going to tell us that this is their heaviest shit in years.

Would be nice if it was but.

Jesus is more likely to make a comeback at this point.

Hehehe.

I didn't totally hate St Anger or anything, but I do quite like a whole loada different shit when it comes to metal. I don't think it was anything outstanding, but I think that if there was another band who wrote that album, it would have likely been received better.

It'll be at least interesting to see what they'll come up with, with Rob Trujillo bein in the band. Also, from reading stuff they've been saying (both the band and a few folk who've been listening to the stuff they've been working through), it could turn out no bad. I think Rick Rubin was a better choice of producer, rather than workin with Bob Rock AGAIN!

Suppose I'll just need to wait and see.......still a fuckin awsome band to see live but

True, I haven't been bothered about a new Metallica release for years but I'll definitely be watching them at Leeds.

I'll never think of the word 'stock' in the same way again.

Aaarrrgh, you got tickets ya bastard I was only wanting a day ticket to go down and see them lol.

Lars Ulrich said in an interview that it is a certainty that they will play songs to be on the new album when they're on the road, at gigs including Leeds and Reading.

That documentary was the most entertaining product Metallica have put their name to in a long, long time and it was only because Hetfield and Ulrich came over as a couple of ridiculous old fools.
I like Hammet, though, he came across as a genial sort.

Aye, this'll be my 6th consecutive Leeds and my 2nd time seeing Metallica there. St Anger was already released last time they played but their set was mostly old stuff. That's one good thing about them, if you don't like the new stuff then you'll only have to hear about 15 minutes of it in their 150 minute set.

Heh, I managed to go to see them there, that was an amazing set they played. Opening with Battery was fuckin awsome!

The short clip released today doesn't sound half bad, this could be a fantastic album, heres hoping they show some promise next month

Mission: Metallica is just the name of the website btw.
