On Tuesday (September 16),the band will record a short set for the UK late-night show "Later... With Jools Holland", to be broadcast Friday.

METALLICA's new album, "Death Magnetic", is on track to sell 500,000 copies in the U.S. in its first, shortened week of release, according to Hits Daily Double. The CD was released worldwide on Friday (September 12),although almost all albums are issued in the U.S. on Tuesdays. The group's last studio effort, 2003's "St. Anger", was pushed up to a Thursday, June 5 release from its original arrival date of June 10 to combat Internet leaks. The record ended up selling 418,000 copies in that short release window, adding another 363,000 in its first full week on shelves.

Meanwhile, fans who purchased a special box set edition of "Death Magnetic" in the UK must have been surprised to find it missing one thing: the CD itself. Many of the boxes, which were priced at the British equivalent of $124.99, were also missing a limited edition lithograph, according to Undercover News. North American editions of the release were not affected.
