Magnetic Chartbreakers

Billboard reports that Metallica‘s “Death Magnetic” has sold 490,000 copies in just a three-day sales window and will lead The Billboard 200 chart. The quartet’s previous album, “St. Anger”, sold “only” 363,000 copies in its first full week of release to land at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 chart.
