Shit's interesting. What will be in store for future or classic metal albums to have the same fate?

Humanity will end up genetically rescuing Smashing Pumpkins and Five Finger Death Punch from oblivion while Demilich and Bolt Thrower will be lost to the sands of time. The aliens who excavate our ruins in the future are going to find this shit and think we deserved to go extinct.

To be fair, there's a lot of evidence that humans probably deserve to go extinct.

The archaeologists of the future species that replaces us are going to be in shock from the landfills of styrofoam and Rock Band instruments we leave behind.

Storing data in DNA is pretty cool, though. I also find the idea of storing data in crystals fascinating. Who knew that old science fiction trope would turn out to have merit?

they will probably inject some Bolt Thrower DNA in order to create super soldiers. I wonder if injecting Nickleback will alter the genetic code in a negative way.

At least 75% of human DNA is already junk. Sequencing Massive Attack albums may be like making apology of Diogenes syndrome.
