The popular thrash-metal band is making key tracks from their catalog available as digitally-distributed game levels once the game hits stores. Metallica is also contributing “Enter the Sandman”, one of their best tracks, for inclusion in the game disc.

“Metallica is one of the best loved bands in the world and their albums redefined hard rock and metal. It’s one of the bands we had to bring to the Rock Band experience,” said Alex Rigopulos, co-founder and CEO of Harmonix. “Rock Band will allow gamers to jam with the guys through their long, successful career, from young, raw talent to mega stars, playing the hard-rocking sounds that the band is known for.”

Rock Band is shipping this Holiday season for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
