This was a relatively quiet week for new music -- well, unless you count new albums from Van Halen and Paul McCartney.
As for new music appearing online, we got an excellent new teaser from Tenacious D -- who will release their new album, Rize of the Fenix in May -- as well as another great slab of classic metal from 3 Inches of Blood and a stirring cover of Metallica's "Fade to Black" from Wykked Wytch.
Yesterday, a new Meshuggah track was intentionally leaked online, and while we still don't have the title information for you, the song is also streaming below.
