You may have noticed, if you’ve watched any TV adverts lately, that there’s a new Metallica album, optimistically named Death Magnetic and to mark the release of their ninth studio album Metallica have teamed up with Skullcandy to offer two sets of exclusive Metallica headphones so that you can listen to their latest songs without forcing it on everybody else.
The Metallica Hesh and Metallica Lowrider headphones both feature typical Metallica graphics on the side of the cans and whether you love them or hate them (and, for most people, it’s one of the other and not somewhere in between) this could be seen as the latest in a line of overpriced accessories from one of the bands most vocal about the theft of their music online.
You can buy pretty much any gadget branded to virtually any band, item, or show and Metallica has long led the way in making the most out of their fan’s almost obsessive nature. You can show your obsession with a pair of the latest Skullcandy headphones.
