Metallica Are Not Angry Over Death Magnetic Leak

Metallica have insisted that they aren't angry over the leak of their new album 'Death Magnetic', ten days before it is due to be released.
In previous years the group have been less forgiving, even taking action to block their music from being downloaded illegally - including a publicised dispute with P2P network Napster.
However, drummer Lars Ulrich has told a Californian radio station that the band aren't worried, even describing the leak as "part of how it is these days".
"Listen, we're ten days from release. I mean, from here, we're golden," said Ulrich.
"If this thing leaks all over the world today or tomorrow, happy days. Happy days. Trust me. Ten days out and it hasn't quote-unquote fallen off the truck yet? Everybody's happy."
"It's 2008 and it's part of how it is these days, so it's fine. We're happy."
'Death Magnetic' is officially released 12th September.
