According to the Norway’s Platekompaniet, METALLICA will release a Deluxe Box Set of their new album, Death Magnetic in September which includes the Death Magnetic digi, ten-track demo CD, making of Death Magnetic DVD, Death Magnetic flag, Death Magnetic plekter, t-shirt, USB memory stick (enabling digital download of Death Magnetic) and more.

The retailer also lists a five-LP version of Death Magnetic which will be available.

Death Magnetic is “a stunning, overdue return to the shock and rush of the band’s speed-metal monuments, 1984’s Ride The Lightning and 1986’s Master Of Puppets,” according to Rolling Stone.

UPDATE: Apparently the original page on the site has been removed. I’m sure ‘you know who’ had something to do with it.

According to BW&BK sources, the album will be preceded by an eight-minute single which is being described as “a tour de force that features some of their fastest playing ever.” The record is being produced by Rick Rubin (SLAYER, RED HOT CHILI PEPERS) and mixed by Greg Fidelman. source
