This is one of those situations where for a small group of people, this is partially good news. For the rest of us, it's another Metallica post that contains zero-percent new music. To the latter, I apologize. The the former, skis!
As if a pinball table, jigsaw puzzles, sneakers, and overpriced ties weren't enough, you can now show your love for Metallica on the slopes with their new ski line.
You can pre-order the skis with a down payment, of which there are two pairs priced at $375 and $400 respectively, right here on the band's website… but that's just the down payment. For the $375 skis, you'll later be charged an additional $324, while with $400 skis will run you an additional $399. Prepare thine bank accounts, hardcore fans!
Listen, I get that merchandising is everything and fans will more than likely buy these, but Metallica is on the road to becoming Kiss 2.0 here. Sans the terrible haircuts so far. Anyway, Metallica's new album (which might actually be being recorded) will be out sometimes around never.
