Metallica's new album 'St Anger' is number one in the US album chart having sold nearly half a million copies in its first. As previously reported the new album – the first studio release in six years and the first since the departure of bassist Jason Newsted - comes with a bonus DVD of the band playing the album live, and codes that allow you to access secret multimedia material from the web.
Whether the online extras secured the band their chart success we're not sure – though apparently the band hired a therapist while in the studio to ensure they performed better together, so perhaps that was what swung it.
