FOUR TRACK EP, FEATURING FOUR PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED
SONGS,
OUT NOW FROM DIGITAL RETAILERS
|
Metallica has
announced that is "has decided to go old school" and will release
its current digital EP, Beyond Magnetic, on CD worldwide at
retail on January 30th and on January 31st in North America. The EP, released
via all digital retailers on December 13th, features four tracks recorded
during the sessions for 2008's 2x-platinum Death Magnetic, the
band's fifth consecutive No. 1 album.
Said the members of Metallica of Beyond Magnetic:
"During the Death Magnetic album sessions in 2007 and
2008, we originally recorded 14 songs. When it came time to pick the
songs for the final album, we decided on 10 songs that you've all come to
know over the last three years. Some of you may have heard bits and pieces of
those other songs on 'Mission Metallica' (remember 'Mission Metallica'?!) or
heard rumors about them during the recording process, and wondered, 'What
ever happened to those other four songs???.' We kept them in the vault
and decided to pull them for our 30th anniversary celebration last month, so
here are the four leftover tracks from the Death Magnetic sessions. They
are ROUGH mixes, unfinished to their original degree of mixing from March
'08. These four songs were released as gift to our closest fans, the members
of our Fan Club, to enjoy. Now they're being made available to you."
Metallica celebrated its 30th anniversary as a band last
month, performing four shows at the Fillmore Theatre in San Francisco, CA,
exclusively for members of their fan club, the Metallica Club.
