According to what metric - historical sales, longevity, or current popularity? I mean, I don't even know the numbers for Death Magnetica, but....

 Sales in the last two decades, meaning sales since Metallica hade it's commercial big break through. You could choose current popularity as a metric too.

By that definition Metallica is bigger than U2 and Rolling Stones. Or at least on par with U2.

Last two decades? Celine Dion kicks the shit out of Metallica. Actually, so does AC/DC. And the Beatles. Then there's Aerosmith, the Backstreet Boys (really), all the teeny boppers like Spears and Aguilera, Bon Jovi, Depeche Mode...

Don't get me started on U2, U2 is the Juggernaut to Metallica's Hulk Hogan.
