METALLICA's 'Death Magnetic' Sold Two Weeks Early At French Record Store? - Sep. 2, 2008
According to several unconfirmed Internet reports, a French record store allegedly began selling copies of the new METALLICA album "Death Magnetic" earlier today nearly two weeks ahead of the CD's scheduled September 12 worldwide release date. A couple of the fans that were lucky enough to purchase these early copies have posted pictures of what is apparently the album's final packaging. Check out some of the photos below.

The studio version of the new METALLICA song "Cyanide" has been made available for streaming on Metallica.com. The track comes off "Death Magnetic", which will be available to download for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock on the same day the album arrives in stores.

"Death Magnetic" track listing:

01. That Was Just Your Life
02. The End Of The Line
03. Broken, Beat & Scarred
04. The Day That Never Comes
05. All Nightmare Long
06. Cyanide
07. The Unforgiven III
08. The Judas Kiss
09. Suicide & Redemption
10. My Apocalypse

METALLICA will play two budget-priced shows in London and Berlin to launch "Death Magnetic", including the opening show on September 12 at the new 17,000-capacity O2 World arena in Berlin. METALLICA also plays London O2 arena on September 15, with tickets priced at £5 ($9), according to Billboard.com. Proceeds from both shows go to local charities.

The concerts are on sale to registered fans only with tickets priced €10 ($14).

I may sound like a pussyboy to you nerdy asses, but I'm not gonna put this record on the net. I support music, not geeky guys who only want to download a record to bash it then jerk off so much they're proud of themselves.

And yes, I listened to this record enough to have a good perspective on it. If that makes me be a "douche", well, I am, and proud of it.

Oh, and by the way, we french don"'t hate you guys. Stop your ridiculous comments about our so-called laziness, our cowardice, etc. You guys just sound immature, uneducated and uncultivated.

another thing, the record store selling the cd in Paris seemed to do it perfectly legally, the copies were genuine and a sticker with "import" was on it. Plus, I do not think this store would do something that illegal, given its exposure and its good reputation in Paris, and given Metallica's importance...

gimme a break... Downloading a record does not mean you "get" it. At best, you get "files". What about the artwork, and all a band wants to give "visually"? It may sound mellow to you, but this, to me, is to be respected, at least when you want to support music.

So who wants to be the dumb fuck to leak this album and end up like the guy that leaked the Chinese Democracy songs and get arrested by the Feds? I'd probably not d/l it right when it does leak either.

Oh and I don't think Metallica will have to sue the record store. I think if an album is put out before the release date it results in heavy fines. So unless this store is a major chain, they will probably be a gormet chocolate shop this time next month.

I'm not sure how many of you remember, but back when St Anger came out it was supposed to have a regular Tuesday release date... but the week before the album started showing up on Kazaa, Limewire, etc... so they just called the stores and said, "go ahead and put it out" the Friday before. Since this happened and there's a good chance it will start to hit the torrent sites before the 12th, they'll probably do the same thing again. Maybe as early as this week.

I agree with the posters who speculate it'll be released this friday at the latest (or next tuesday). How do I know? I used to know someone who worked at a record store and thats usually the earliest they got the albums in - my friend used to sometimes get albums a week earlier a few times giving/selling a copy to some other friends. I speculate that its either released already (tonight or tommorow) or that other theory.

Have any of you douches ever been to France? Could you even find it on a map?

Go back to school...without the French we probably would've lost the Revolutionary War. Fucking armchair generals...

It's been leaked and in 320 kbps. Support Metallica and buy the album when it comes out. They made a thrash album for you the fans because you wanted it, buy it and support them as a thank you.

Metallica's latest upchuck is far from a thrash album. It's fast in places and that's about it. Just because there's tremolo picking doesn't mean it's thrash.

I pre-ordered the album and physical CD also, so am I stealing by downloading the torrent?

This is a perfect test to see if downloading is really and truly hurting the music industry as much as people say it is. Everyone is eagerly awaiting this album, even the detractors, and we'll see in the coming weeks if leaks like this really do significant damage to the artists. If not, Lars Ulrich has got a lot of crow to eat.

i just got the flac from a pal who got the cd early just to rip it and well to all the fangirls you will be happy to know the mix is still horrible (the drums are louder than james) so all the bull shit you ate from the managers that it was a encoding issue will be greatly disappointed. It sounds as if it was extremely rushed and forced.

best of luck defending this glorified bootleg sounding metallica cover band album.

Holy shit that was fucking horrible. Did you hear that drumming? They should all just retire because at least we know for a fact now that even if they do write a heavy album, it's going to suck anyway.

This band, which was once my favorite of all time, fucking blows donkey dicks.

Not the best from metallica.....but I am actually pretty happy that it doesnt suck as bad as the black album and beyond. Still nowhere near as Justice, or any metallica album before Justice....but at least its a step in the right direction!

What's the difference between WW2 and the Revolutionary War? None of us were alive then, either, yet people feel the need to constantly name-drop that shit like they did something. I agree it's kinda funny with the frog bashing, but do you even know anyone who's French? I know plenty of French people and they don't hate the US or Americans.

Unless you've served in the military, you can't use the word "we" when describing what the United States has done in times of war. You don't have that privilege.

"The black album is head and shoulders above this crap."

I severely disagree. The black album to me, is the moment metallica sold out. I was the hugest fan of them until the day I bought that album.

On the French issue, I agree 100% with you.

Ahahahaha at people bashing this already. Seriously, Lars is adequate and that's all he has to be in a band like this. That's like listening to AJFA and TBA and bitching about how Newstead isn't redefining how the bass is played. Then again, I keep forgetting that every musician in every band you like is the greatest of all time, so really I should just keep my mouth shut, right?

No I wasn't in any elite unit or anything, but I did my time downrange. I was in the AF and was an Aerospace Control and Warning Weapons Director...not enough time to explain it here. Basically I told the fighters where to go and who to kill.

And no, not all Americans use "we" when speaking about our sacrifices because it's a slight to include themselves in something they were never a part of. Go ahead and say that shit to the people returning from the desert and see what happens. My friends who never made it back from there would beat your fucking ass if they were still alive. I was just lucky.

You're right, though...we were in the military to protect the rights of dickheads like you, which is precisely the reason I got out.

I don't think I'll be listening to it before the real release date.
But to anyone who is a stupid idiot, you can hear some tracks on YouTube and there are many torrents of the album now.

Metallica-haters are the pussies. And...I'm listening to the last track of the album as we speak and I have to say this is the best thing they've done since "Justice". Everyone should give it a listen and then judge it.

btw I did pre-order the limited vinyl so I did pay for it already.

ok, so now you have a French native speaking... Guinevere... "douche" means shower, in English, and yeah, Lokislair made a spelling mistake... We don't hate the US, and our ancestors did help you out with the Independence War... Hadn't they been there for you back then, you'd still drink tea at 5 o'clock. Hadn't you been there to return the favour, we'd probably be speaking German, I grant you that. But don't forget about the French resistance in WWII. So le Maréchal Pétain did surrender, but it was originally in an attempt at protecting us. That doesn't make it any less despisable, but there wouldn't be France now if he hadn't. And French fries aren't French, they're Belgian. And we don't smell... not anymore anyway. And we do shave. And we don't ride old Vespas anymore. Ok, now that this has been said...

I am going to try and find the CD in the store, hoping that they still have it, and I won't put it up. I can't grow balls as I'm a girl. Nor do I need to, it's just you who should learn patience. It'll make the experience even better, like you've actually achieved something instead of cheating by downloading it.

I downloaded this bitch last night before it was taken down!

DDDDDDDUUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Think AJFA mixed with Black Album, with a tiny hint of Load (heavier side of Load like Fuel and King Nothing)

No joke! Buy this shit when it comes out! I will and I already have it!
Unforgiven III kicks ass by the way! Its kind of weird though. The chorus sounds a lot like a softer "I Disappear"

This is gonna be a long one so prepair to bash me later !
I love this thread, too funny first of all to sylkss i would like to say girl your soo frigging awesome !!
but i wanna quote you on something:
"I am going to try and find the CD in the store, hoping that they still have it, and I won't put it up. I can't grow balls as I'm a girl. Nor do I need to, it's just you who should learn patience. It'll make the experience even better, like you've actually achieved something instead of cheating by downloading it."

and your gonna go get the album to rub it in online ?
while the rest of the douchebags that dont know how to use a mouse moan about not being able to get it (no offense but you read what was mentioned the album was leaked no matter how many spots its being removed from another one will pop out not gonna give aways links but COME ON!)

I love the comment after that


"Yeah, Metallica's fans really achieved something by buying St. Anger. I downloaded it, and I still felt ripped off.

And I was being sarcastic about the whole French thing. For God's sake, lighten up. And you could grow balls if you really wanted to. I DID."
DUde seriously ?? !!! seeds :P?
St.Anger was hilarious !

By the way... New album could be considered good if it was released by a metallica cover band !
