Magnetic Silver Vinyl
Metallica's first studio album since to 2003 is Death Magnetic. The title is a nod to the band's fallen peers - it started out as kind of a tribute to people that have fallen in the music business, like (Alice in Chains frontman) Layne Staley and grew from there. On the album the Bay Area original masters of metal seek to recapture the magic of their 1986 multi-platinum Master of Puppets by ditching long-time producer Bob Rock in favour of Rick Rubin.
