As previously reported, a Finnish retailer called Record Shop X recently listed September 17 as the release date for "Death Magnetic". An official release date has yet to be announced by the band or its label, although band members have been saying 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 later this month. 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.
