Metallica selects new openers for Los Angeles show after Lamb of God gets banned

Metallica issued this update earlier today:

As you may have heard, the owners of the Los Angeles Forum have a little issue with our friends from Lamb of God, so unfortunately they will not be joining us for the two shows at the Forum on December 17 and 18. That's the bad news... the good news is that our bros in Machine Head are rushing back to the States from Europe to step in on those two nights. And of course no show would be complete without The Sword kicking things off, so they'll be there too.

For some background on why Lamb of God is unable to play at the Forum, as well as our thoughts on the issue, go here.
