Metallica garnered much anticipation with a website tease of their upcoming albums title. From June 9th to June 14th, Metallica’s website had been releasing a new photo giving more and more letters of their album’s name, though the title of the news story only read “???” Finally, on the 14th, the last of the photos was released giving the full name of their 9th studio album to date: Death Magnetic.

There were mixed receptions among fans on the message boards regarding the name of the album. Some consider it too close to Dave Mustaine’s band Megadeth, who of course was formerly a member of Metallica in their early days. Other fans simply think that the name sounds better the other way: Magnetic Death. Then there are those who love the name and the way it was presented.
