The musical darlings of the Village Voice Media.

Rob Harvilla over at the Village Voice reviews Metallica’s latest offering Death Magnetic only after playing it on Guitar Hero III. The album was offered on the day of its release as a 11-track download for the game.

Riverfront Times’ A to Z blog talks with Metallica’s performance coach Peter Towle about the band’s new album. Towle appeared on the band’s documentary Some Kind of Monster in what some call “awkward therapy sessions.”

Seattle Weekly has on going series of Metallica posts arguing the band and new album’s greatness. Check out part 1, part 2 and part 3. And there is still more on the way.
