Metallica’s upcoming studio album ‘Death Magnetic’ will be made available for fans in various formats and for those with various sized wallets.

The base model of the album will be the CD but prices will range up to $124.99 for the album, depending on how big a fan, and how big a wallet you have.

For $124.99 you will be the proud owner of the vinyl, CD and digital package that comes with a Lithograph. The vinyl version will be a massive 5 LPs.

There will also be a limited edition box set featuring the 2-CD set and a bonus 10-song demo disc, a t-shirt, a flag, Metallica ‘Death Magnetic’ guitar picks, a fold out coffin box with poster and a USB memory stick with the Metallica logo.

For the geekier fan, you may choose the $24.95 digital download pack featuring a hi-res version of the album, two further downloads of upcoming summer shows, two hours of video footage, 250 photos, ringtones and a chance to enter exclusive contents.

‘Death Magnetic’ will be released in September.
