Metal legends seem to have unveiled name online

Metallica have cryptically unveiled what is likely to be their new album title on their Metallica.com.

The band gradually revealed the title 'Death Magnetic' in posts, beginning on June 9, when only the letters 'DC' were shown.

You can download 'Death Magnetic' wallpapers from the group’s site.

The album, produced by Rick Rubin, is the follow-up to 2003’s 'St Anger' and is set to be released in September.

Before then, Metallica will headline Reading And Leeds Festivals, on August 24 and 22, respectively.
