Metallica tries to get fans into stores with coffin offer
Metallica is trying to get fans to buy the actual CD version of its upcoming Death Magnetic album (due in the Fall) by selling it in a package designed as a coffin. But wait, there's more. According to the band's Web site, the Death box set will also include "a CD with the demos of the songs, a DVD of even more 'making of the album' footage not seen on Mission: Metallica, a t-shirt only available in this box, a flag, guitar picks, and a fold out poster along with a collector's credit card embossed with a code to redeem a free download of a special European show happening in September (yes, details coming soon!)." They really, really don't want you to download this shit off the Internet. -- Jennifer Maerz
