So numerous reports are coming in of Death Magnetic being leaked over a week before its official release on September 12th. Reviews vary from the usual “…not the same Metallica” to “They’re back!!”. Have you heard it? What do you think. I can’t admit I’ve heard it, but let’s say I’m sure it is pretty good.
No matter how you first hear the new album, make sure you buy it. This is the cheapest I’ve seen it so far.

Whether you have downloaded this album or not, I would still encourage everyone to support metallica and buy this album. It is completely amazing!!!! It is definitely one of their best albums ever.

I’m definitely agreeing with you there. The album is really great. It ranks VERY high up there with the greats. I’m not comparing it to the greats I’m just saying it belongs there for me. I’m definitely buying the album the physical CD itself…and maybe the Coffin box set one if it’s in stock.
Support them cuz we should all be proud of them for making this album!!

Album is awesome, I will totally be buying it on Sep 12th !!! really I dont think there is a bad song on it.
If you can imagine an album in between Justice and Black with a little load\reload flavor here and there, you get an idea of what it sounds like.
Its got the catchy tunes of Black with the lengthy interludes of Justice and the greasy rock of load\reload. and dont get me started on Kirk \m/
I dont think the leak is full sound quality either, but seriously as a long time fan & dreading a follow up to St Anger, its not only “well its better than St. Anger”
it shits all over it !!

I think it might be full quality. Because the album was released at a French Record Store and put online, thats how it was leaked.

how about a url for the leak?

You need to get a Torrent search engine such as “uTorrent” then you can search for torrent files on the internet for death magnetic. You will find as I did, that the internet is littered with these files from the leak.

But make sure you buy it when it comes out!

Go to isohunt. Search Death Magnetic. It’s a great torrent site.

I’m kinda sad that “Holy Revolver” wasn’t on the album. I hope they release it on a single or something like that.
September 4th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
Holy Revolver?

Ill never be satisfied i want more lol
September 4th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
um wtf happened unforgiven 3 SUCKS
September 4th, 2008 at 2:22 pm
Metallica would be more then foolish not to drop this on Tuesday rather than Friday. Didnt this same thing happen to St. Anger?
September 4th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
This album is really good, I’ve ordered the Coffin box off play.com
working on a full review, gonna put it up on my blog later.

“Holy Revolver’s” actual title is “Shine” for anyone who was wondering. I have no idea if it will be released but I hope it does because that one sounded really cool from the clips. And please everyone, whether you download it or not go buy it too!!!!!!! They definitely deserve your $15 on this one.

I have to admit I have heard it, BUT I WILL be buying it Sept.12th!!!! It is completely amazing!!! BUT WHERE IS HOLY REVOLVER?!?! Why tease us on Mission:Metallica?!?!
September 5th, 2008 at 10:32 am
Holy crap you guys! you complain but you have the album the way they intended it to be. It`s a week early with awesome music on it! So why is it so hard to be happy with the best metal band of all time?
