Mission Metallica Wants You(r money)

If you registered for this Mission Metallica website you probably got the same e-mail I got yesterday. It was basically an e-mail saying that Mission Metallica is now live and running and that if you can’t get enough then you can get the “platinum package”.

Just when I thought this was a genuine attempt for the band to let you in and experience the making of the new record….it’s all a marketing ploy. They lure you in with the “Check out the making of..” and then try to hook you into buying merchandise like a heroin dealer giving you a little taste and then offering the full package. Packages range from $24.99 to $124.99. You can also pre-order a cup full or disappointment or as they’re calling it “The new album”. They offer you to buy the cd before you even hear it. Anyone that preorders a Metallica cd these days is either out of their mind or not and old school Metallica fan and actually likes St. Anger. If you like St. Anger…you’re clinically insane. End of story.

I think I may have said while back that I wasn’t going to talk anymore Metallica trash until after the release and review of the new album….I LIED!
