Get A Sneak Peak at Metallica’s New “Cyanide”

Metallica debuted a new song over the weekend at Ozzfest called “Cyanide”. Luckily for us they released a decent-sounding stream of the song for us to pick apart before they release their first single “The Day That Never Comes” some time before the end of the month.

“Death Magnetic”, Metallica’s first studio album in 5 years, arrives in stores September 12th.

The song represents two things which, from what I’ve heard of both in discussion and from the footage seen at MissionMetallica.com, will make up the new album: a combination of tightly-produced Metallica found on albums like The Black Album and Load combined with the longer, solo-heavy songs found on earlier albums like Master of Puppets and In Justice For All.
