Metallica Will Be Week Long Music Guest on The Late Late Show

Listen up Metallica fans. At the request of Craig Ferguson who is on his way out as host of The Late Late Show, one of the final musical guests will be none other than metal legends Metallica and they're not just doing a one night send off either.

After a decade as host of The Late Late Show, Ferguson announced his decision to step down as host of the program this past April, a few weeks after David Letterman revealed that he would be retiring as host of The Late Show. Ferguson's final broadcast will take place on an as yet unspecified date in December. After that, British actor and comedian James Corden will take over the show.

The group's appearance on the show coincides with the 10-year anniversary reissue of the Metallica documentary Some Kind of Monster, which will come out on November 24th, as well as a Record Store Day vinyl pressing of their new song "Lords of Summer," due out Black Friday.

Be sure to tune in.
