'Death Magnetic' Box Set?

2008-07-05 by Heikneuter | 20 Comments
According to the Norwegian music retailer Platekompaniet, Metallica will release a limited-edition two-CD, one-DVD, deluxe "Death Magnetic" box set in September. The box set will be packaged as a coffin box and will also include an exclusive t-shirt, flag and USB memory stick.

The details of the deluxe box set are as follows:

1 "Death Magnetic" CD (exclusive digipack version)

1 CD with demos of songs from "Death Magnetic" (10 songs)

1 "Making of 'Death Magnetic'" DVD featuring never-before-seen material

1 exclusive "Death Magnetic" t-shirt (only available with the box set)

1 "Death Magnetic" flag

A set of "Death Magnetic" guitar picks

1 fold-out, coffin box, poster with pictures of the band members

1 USB memory stick with Metallica logo (enables digital download of "Death Magnetic" album)

A Finnish retailer called Record Shop X has listed Wednesday, September 17 as the release date for Metallica's ninth studio album, "Death Magnetic". Although an official release date has yet to be announced by the band or its label, the Finnish date would indicate that the album would arrive in the U.S. on Tuesday, September 16, with most of continental Europe getting the CD one day earlier on September 15. Some countries, including Germany, Austria and Switzerland, would see the record issued on Friday, September 12.

Tuesdays are when almost all CDs are issued in the U.S.

The members of Metallica have been saying in interviews that the album will arrive in September.

"Death Magnetic" was produced by Metallica and Rick Rubin, and marks the recording debut of bassist Robert Trujillo, who joined the lineup in 2003 shortly after the last Metallica album, "St. Anger", was completed.

Metallica will hit some European festivals starting in mid-July. The band's next U.S. date is the one-day Ozzfest on August 9 in Dallas, with a full North American tour slated to begin in October.

I guess they decided to save money for packaging by selling crappy music in bulk. Besides I'm sure nobody else saw the coffin box cliche coming.

Why do they give you 3 versions of the same album. I would personally never want that much stuff that says 'Death Magnetic' on it. Much rather have all that stuff but have it say 'Ultra Beatdown', much more entertaining and not as sad and pathetic.

Why would anyone listen to the demo versions of the songs, when they have the properly produced, finished ones on the same package?

Do they need to make even more money THAT badly?

I'm actually sort of looking forward to this new album. The clips they posted sound really good.

despite all the bullshit surrounding the band,
this may make up for it. i mean, you don't wanna fork out like 20 bucks or something for a one lame cd which could be a lemon.
a box set is always nice.
