Metallica, whose leaked album Death Magnetic is slated for a September 12 release, launched a promotion on YouTube today featuring the band's favorite Metallica cover songs on the site. Drummer Lars Ulrich introduces their selections in the video to the right.
"It makes us feels alive and special that you guys can be out there doing that cool stuff that you guys do... we're mighty proud of what you do out there." says Ulrich. Later, he explains one reason the band is doing this. "You've all seen enough versions of us playing Enter Sandman and Master of Puppets on German MTV for the last ten years. Who needs that, right? Let's check out some really cool interpretations of all the Metallica songs that you guys out there are so cool to put up on the net and share with everybody in the world."
