Metallica say: “New songs and their videos will premiere right up to when the clock turns over at midnight in New Zealand, where the first official copy of the new album will be available worldwide.

“The videos – shot around the globe – will give fans the opportunity to hear the long awaited Metallica album two days ahead of its official November 18 release via Blackened Recordings.”

Hardwired… To Self-Destruct is the band’s 10th album and will be launched with an intimate show in London that’s to be streamed live across the world.

Today, Napster announced Metallica’s entire catalogue is available on their subscription service 16 years after the world famous legal battle over copyright.
