METALLICA's HETFIELD, ULRICH Talk To BBC RADIO 1's 'Rock Show'; Video Available

September 11, 2008

BBC Radio 1 "Rock Show" presenter Daniel P. Carter went to Zurich, Switzerland recently to interview METALLICA while they were on their European tour.

Video footage of METALLICA guitarist/vocalist James Hetfield explaining the meaning behind the title of the band's new album, "Death Magnetic", and drummer Lars Ulrich talking about working with producer Rick Rubin on the new CD can be viewed below.

METALLICA's official web site is currently streaming all 10 songs from "Death Magnetic". Six of the tracks were premiered during last week's "Metallica: The World Premiere Of Death Magnetic", hosted by FOO FIGHTERS frontman Dave Grohl and drummer Taylor Hawkins and broadcast live from METALLICA's headquarters in San Rafael, California.

Several copies of "Death Magnetic" were sold early at a Paris record store on September 2, which led to the entire album being leaked online within hours.

Due on September 12, "Death Magnetic" will also be available to download for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock the same day that the record is released.

METALLICA will play two low-dough shows in Europe to celebrate the CD's release, in Berlin on September 12 and London on September 15. Tickets for both are priced under $20 and open to fan club members only.

The band will kick off its first indoor North American tour on October 21 in Glendale, Arizona, with shows booked through the end of January.
