In this paper we study a class of metrics with some compatible almost complex structures on the tangent bundle TM of a Riemannian manifold (M,g), which are parallel to those in [10]. These metrics generalize the classical Sasaki metric and Cheeger-Gromoll metric. We prove that the tangent bundle TM endowed with each pair of the above metrics and the corresponding almost complex structures is a locally conformal almost K¨ahler manifold. We also find that, when restricted to the unit tangent sphere bundle, these metrics and corresponding almost complex structures define new examples of contact metric structures.
