Metallica Have Unveiled Their Own Brand of Whiskey!

How bad is this? Metallica has released their own blended American whiskey which they are calling “Blackened”.

According to Metallica.com:

“Blackened” isn’t just the name of a song on …And Justice For All and now on the bottle; it literally helps to shape the flavor! That’s right, the blend of bourbons, ryes, and whiskeys from all across North America, carefully selected by Dave himself, is housed in black brandy barrels and inundated with low hertz sound waves so intense that it actually enhances the molecular interaction and ultimately the finish of the whiskey.

The whiskey is being released next week, and according to their site, they have a few release parties scheduled for September 2 when they are performing in Madison, WI.
