Metallica’s first album in over five years, Death Magnetic

Metallica’s first album in over five years, Death Magnetic, is projected to be doing fairly well.
According to statistics, the album is well on its way to top U.S. album charts this week.
The official data will be released before the week ends, but according to preliminary estimates, their new album will make it big.
According to many sources, Death Magnetic is said to have sold 450,000 - 500,000 copies last week, even though the album was only on sale for three days.
Good job, oldies!!!
Their last album, St. Anger, also sold very well during its first week of release, selling 419,000 copies in just three days as well.
A good reason why the sales are up is because some stores, like Best Buy, are bundling the album with Guitar Hero and even with some Metallica headphones.
Ticketmaster is also offering a ticket/album deal for buyers.
Hmmm… Are you gonna buy a rock album by a bunch of old guys?
