Time to dust off your turntables


"While we're finishing up the new album, we told the dudes at the record company we thought it might be cool to dust off the old tapes and get all retro with some vinyl re-releases... First up are the first two albums (duh!?), "Kill ?Em All" and "Ride the Lightning," coming out on April 15 in North America and pretty fucking close to that in the rest of the world.

There will be two versions...one like the original on a single disc spinning at 33 1/3, the other a two disc, 180 gram vinyl, 45 rpm package all in a double gatefold. The music was half speed mastered from the original analog tapes at Mobile Fidelity to bring you audiophile quality.

Both versions will be available in the online store here and over at Met Club. Oh, and in case you were wondering, "Master" and "Justice" will obviously be next and should be coming out on vinyl in June."

Machine Head

Metallica have just announced through their official website, the opener for the first European leg of their 2008 Touring Plans. This is the announcement that was posted today on the official site:

"We’re psyched that our friends in Machine Head have said "yes" to more fun and games following the good times that were had by all at Wembley last summer. They will play with us in Chorzow, Poland and Prague, Czech Republic for the two headlining shows on the first part of our summer European vacation. The remaining dates in May and June are festivals with tons of other cool bands.

As usual, there's more to come..."

The Second Leg openers for Europe should be confirmed within the next few weeks along with couple more dates for the rest of the second leg.

Sources are claim a date on the American East coast will be announced very soon. Stay tuned to MetPage for more information coming soon.
