Death Magnetic has finally leaked online.
Reports are that the album was being sold in France, before the worldwide release date of September 12th, but despite the leak drummer Lars Ulrich said he was happy enough:
“Listen, we’re ten days from release…I mean, from here, we’re golden. If this thing leaks all over the world today or tomorrow, happy days. Happy days. Trust me. Ten days out and it hasn’t quote-unquote fallen off the truck yet? Everybody’s happy. It’s 2008 and it’s part of how it is these days, so it’s fine. We’re happy.”
