Metallica Rolling Out Their New Album on Guitar Hero

Originally posted 07/17/2008 03:00PM

When Metallica releases its new album, Death Magnetic, in September, fans will be able to do more than thrash their heads to it – they'll be able to play their fake Gibsons right along with it.

According to nme.com, the band will release the album on the video game Guitar Hero, as well as in stores.

In related news, Guns N Roses, will also release their new track, "Shackler's Revenge" on Guitar Hero's competition, Rock Band II, the same month.
