    Metallica have not only acquired the rights to their master recordings. They have not only started their own record label, Blackened Recordings. They've also partnered with Spotify, allowing their music to be streamed by the streaming service.

    Below is Metallica's statement about partnering with Spotify.

    "We're beyond excited to announce that music from every single Metallica album is now streaming on Spotify!

    "In our never-ending quest for total control of the way our music is presented, we always make it a point to be sure that we are offering you the very best service by partnering with groundbreaking technology companies. So with that said, we are extremely proud to be a part of Spotify, who not only has a proven track record, but is by far the best streaming service.

    "Spotify was launched in Sweden in 2008 and has grown into a massive world-wide service with on-demand access to over 20 million songs. You can create and manage all your play-lists, share them with your friends and add to them by importing MP3s you already own. Now you can also take Spotify with you through their new mobile app.

    "We're always looking for more ways to get our music out to you, whether it's streaming live videos through our tour page on this site or offering downloads of live shows through LiveMetallica.com. Connecting with Spotify was the next logical step and we can't wait to see what the future brings!"
