Well, here's a day we thought would never come. It's been five years since Metallica released the turbo-charged video for "Frantic," which featured "Wildest Moments Caught on Video"-style footage of a car plowing through an RV and lots of sped up shots of a wired dude in a club. For the long-awaited follow up, "The Day that Never Comes," Metallica hooked up with director Thomas Vinterberg to shoot a narrative video about the harsh reality of war. The clip features a jeep hitting a landmine, a soldier tending to his buddy's wounds and footage of military men in the desert, guns drawn, senses on full alert.
"Our goal was to step outside of the usual every day music video box and into to the world of film," writes the band on its Web site. "We shot it outside of Los Angeles a month ago and we hope that you are as blown away by Thomas' vision as we are."

After three studio albums that were rhythmically straightforward, artistically experimental and, about 80 miles-per-hour short of thrash masterpieces, Metallica have (at least partially) returned to their roots. The band's upcoming album, Death Magnetic, features acrobatic time signatures, fierce thrash beats, downtuned guitars and enough cool crunchy guitar parts to fill Trivium's entire catalog.
