UPDATE: “The Day That Never Comes” is available at iTunes Store (USA iTunes Store). It is of coursed DRM’ed and etc. It is not available yet on Amazon MP3 store because of the Copy Protection issues. Bad DRM, bad! I could include the link to the MP3, but Lars would be mad at me because he needs the money for the gold-plated shark tank bar installed right next to the pool that he always wanted (see South Park: Christian Rock Hard).

Metallica premieres “The Day That Never Comes” today. The second song off “Death Magnetic” following the live performance of “Cyanide” at OZZFEST 2008 (August 9th).
The song can be heard through Metallica Official Website, Mission: Metallica Site, Metallica’s MySpace Page, and select radio stations.
As always, unofficial downloadable audio of this song can be found on the internet.
The song is reminiscent of Metallica’s own past works. “Fade To Black”, “Orion” and “One” come to mind. One thing for sure that this is nowhere near “St. Anger” which can only mean good things.
