METALLICA’S INTERACTIVE WEBSITE LAUNCHES LIVE IN AUSTRALIA THIS WEEK


MISSION:METALLICA.COM ENABLES FANS TO EXPERIENCE THE BAND’S UPCOMING ALBUM BEFORE IT’S DONE VIA EXCLUSIVE CONTENT UP UNTIL THE RELEASE DATE


Mission:Metallica is a unique new commercial business model designed to enable fans to access exclusive content from Metallica, leading up to the release of the band’s forthcoming new album, Death Magnetic in September.


The platform, developed by Metallica in tandem with Universal Music and Warner Brothers, also gives fans the opportunity to pre-order Death Magnetic.

Fans will be able to pre-order the album in digital and/or physical formats (including a unique special deluxe Coffin shaped box with a T shirt, digipack, dvd , CD of demos and other exclusive items) and access the exclusive content via a selection of bundles though www.missionmetallica.com via each territory’s retail partner(s).

Originally launched in the U.S, Canada and the UK in late may, the rest of the world is now ready to join in the full experience with 31 countries launching live bespoke local versions this week

Territories live this week include: Australia, Austria, Czech Republic , Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, Hong Kong, Hungary, Italy, Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Japan, Brazil, Argentina, Romania, Turkey, Belgium and Eire

www.missionmetallica.com offers users a unique, ground-breaking look-in on the making of Metallica’s upcoming ninth studio album, which the band began recording last year with producer Rick Rubin.

Rather than wait until the album’s September release date, Metallica fans are able to access 'making of footage' before the release of the album by joining www.missionmetallica.com

The website features a treasure trove of exclusive content, including the low-down from the band members themselves about their progress in the studio via fly-on-the-wall video footage, audio of riffs and excerpts of new songs, exclusive new and never-before-seen archival photos from the studio, plus the chance to win tickets and meet-and-greet passes to Metallica’s live concert events this summer. All of this content is absolutely free.

And if that free content isn’t enough, fans can also join Mission:Metallica Platinum, which gains users access, high-quality digital album downloads delivered at midnight on release date, the physical album CD, plus complete downloads of classic live shows, more fly-on-the-wall studio footage, loads of additional photos, and ringtones of riffs from the new album. In addition, Platinum members will be able to enter exclusive contests with the chance to win airfare, hotel, concert tickets, and meet-and-greet passes to Metallica’s headlining performances at this year’s Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, Ozzfest, and the U.K.’s Reading Festival, as well as a special album listening party at the band’s Northern California headquarters.

The album, Death Magnetic will be released in September. It is Metallica’s first studio album since 2003’s multi-platinum St. Anger, which hit No. 1 in 30 countries and has sold nearly six million copies worldwide. Formed in Los Angeles in 1981 by drummer Lars Ulrich and rhythm guitarist and vocalist James Hetfield, Metallica has become one of the most influential and commercially successful rock bands in history, having sold nearly 100 million albums worldwide and playing to millions of fans the world over. They have garnered numerous awards and accolades, including seven Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, and three MTV Video Music Awards. In addition, their 1991 album, Metallica has been awarded the prestigious "Diamond Award" from the Recording Industry Association of America, given to those albums with U.S. sales of 10 million or more.

KEANE CELEBRATE NEW ALBUM WITH FREE SINGLE DOWNLOAD


Keane celebrate the completion of their hugely anticipated third album by giving away a brand new song, Spiralling - to fans for free.

The track will be made available to download for free from today for one week from keanemusic.com.

Spiralling is written and produced by Keane and was recorded in Berlin's Teldex Studio earlier this year. Tom Chaplin describes Spiralling as "a train of thought about human endeavour, built on an outrageous groove". Sounding unlike anything they have ever recorded before, it bears the unmistakeable confidence of a band in its prime.

Keane have released two multi-platinum albums Hopes and Fears (2004) and Under The Iron Sea (2006); both went straight to number one in the UK on release.

Keane's third album Perfect Symmetry will be released on October 11 and will include singles such as the stunning The Lovers Are Losing and the soaring first cut Spiralling - scheduled to hit airwaves worldwide this month.

British India released the best rock album of 2007, Guillotine. Now, 12 months later,
they're getting set to unleash their second album, Thieves. This is
how rock'n'roll is meant to be! – Jeff Jenkins, Inpress

Almost one year to the day from the release of their debut album Guillotine, indie champions BRITISH INDIA
are back to launch their new album Thieves, featured on triple j last week.

Proudly presented by Channel [V] and triple j, the Thieves album launch tour will hit Adelaide next weekend when British India rock The Governor Hindmarsh on Friday 1 August. British India will then make their way to Bryon Bay to kick start the local Festival season at Splendour In The Grass, playing the mainstage on Sunday 3 August.

A tight cohesive album, by a most promising and talented young rock & roll band, Thieves celebrates the garage pop which has characterised British India’s initial success, and demonstrates their growth both as songwriters and musicians.

I Said I’m Sorry is the first single from the band’s impressive sophomore record, and currently one of the most requested songs on triple j. British India recently filmed a music clip for the lead single with Melbourne- based production company Moop Jaw (Powderfinger, The Getaway Plan, Young & Restless).

Do not miss your chance to see one of Australia’s finest live rock acts on tour:
