There's no single

Why is Lords of Summer listed as a single on this album? It is NOT even part of the album, its a track on the bonus disc that comes with the delux edition of the album. Please remove that song from the singles list or unprotect the page so people with common sense can fix it.

Stop the madness. Releasing a youtube video is NOT a single nor will it ever be. Term a new word if you have to acknowledge that at all. I repeat, it is NOT A SINGLE! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.115.76.176 (talk) 18:20, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Plus, the news article on metallica.com stated it was CLOSE to 80 min, not OVER 80 min. Of course, close to 80 min fit on one disc, rendering the 2cd release pointless. Big difference to OVER 80 min, which REQUIRES 2 CDs (usually - 90 min is possible but with danger of skipping - see Load where they cut The outlaw torn a little bit to stay under 80 minutes). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.115.76.176 (talk) 18:22, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's Twelfth.

Garage Inc counts as studio album, of covers, at least primary disc. Also Lulu is a studio album as well, a collaboration of course, but it counts, just like Sunn O)))'s Altar, Terrestrials and the other one count as studio albums.

I don't know why this argument is coming up, but no, they most certainly are not. I don't know why you would be making comparisons with other bands here. Garage Inc. is a cover album, while Lulu is a collaboration with Lou Reed, and cannot therefore be classed as a sole Metallica studio album. Therefore, I'm sorry, but you are sadly mistaken. Case dismissed. 4TheWynne(talk)(contribs) 21:38, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's actually their 10th studio album. 4 in the 80s, 3 in the 90s, 2 in the 00s and this one = 10 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.14.214.100 (talk) 20:31, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hardwired 2-CD and Deluxe edition tracklisting fix


https://metallica.com/blog/news/429181/hardwired-to-self-destruct-available-november-18-2 The link includes tracklisting for the album including its deluxe edition. The tracklisting also shows that it's gonna be a double-CD album, something that you guys forgot to edit into the article. You probably known about it... but just making sure because I didn't see it edited into the article yet. Happy editing :D

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. Topher385 (talk) 03:18, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According to the official Metallica website, "Hardwired" is credited to Hetfield and Ulrich. Browse Music -> Songs to verify. Blizk2 (talk) 10:23, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 19 August 2016

Hardwired...to Self-DestructHardwired... to Self-Destruct – Grammatically, there should be space after three periods. The page was unprotected yesterday and various user were "boldly" moving it from one name to another. – Retrohead (talk) 11:15, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since there's been some move-warring going on, bringing this to RM, hopefully should settle this (permalink). — Andy W. (talk ·ctb) 16:02, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you – I've been trying to figure out how to make a requested move like this for a while now. Yes, this is the title that I've been trying to move it to... funnily enough, though, I pre-ordered the deluxe edition of the album on iTunes a few minutes ago, and the album's listed as Hardwired...To Self-Destruct, which is the title that I moved it from yesterday. Don't know what to make of it, but regardless, I agree with the suggested title above. 4TheWynne(talk)(contribs) 22:29, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:BANDNAME, prepositions shorter than five letters (such as to) are in small letters. I ordered a vinyl at Amazon, and as far as I can see there, the title is spelled as you pointed. By the way, thanks for starting this article. Judging by the first single, it's going to be a hell of an album.--Retrohead (talk) 09:03, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
