I’m sure that you’ve noticed that I’m getting back to my Heavy Metal groove lately, and not just covering stuff about Rihanna and Chris Brown dating.

Here’s another good one from Blabbermouth, telling us that Metallica has set a release date for their newest album, Death Magnetic .

The official date is September 12th for the worldwide release of the album. The album will also be available for download for Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock, on the same day of the release. I love Guitar Hero and most of the content for the game, but I’m kind of hesitant to purchase the Metallica stuff.

I’ve always been a little biased towards the older Metallica stuff, not giving much credit to them for going mainstream and sucking as hard as they have after the Black album. If they show me that the proof is in the pudding, then I might buy into it. We’ll see.

Old school Metallica kicks most of the butt out there now, but I wouldn’t take anything after the Black album if they were giving it away.

The track listing for the new album is:

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
