New Metallica Goes Online

NEW METALLICA GOES ONLINE:

Of all places to find new Metallica … it is online.

It would appear those nasty Napster nippers weren’t totally wrong after all when it came to providing fans with a way to sample new music. Metallica themselves are using the internet and their own website now to give fans a taste of what they have been up to in the studio.

The band threw a party for 100 contest winners on July 6 and entertained them with a one hour set. A video from the set is now being streamed from metallica.com and includes a brand new song titled Dead Kennedy Rules (working title only).

For the gig, on bass was producer Bob Rock as well as special guest bass players Andrew and Elena, winners who got to be members in Metallica for the night.
