Metallica Give Beyond Magnetic A Silver Lining

The four track EP will be released on super-limited edition silver vinyl for Record Store Day on 21 April.

"We’ve always been big supporters of our friends at independent retail and the annual event the third Saturday of each April... we even helped kick off the first year in 2008 with an in-store appearance at one of our hometown stores," says Metallica. "To add to the fun, this is no ordinary black vinyl release, but instead will be on silver vinyl with an exclusive Metallica sticker included in the package. Look for the EP on the special Saturday release date at your favorite local record store and on Metallica.com."

The EP is made up of four tracks recorded during the Death Magnetic sessions but never previously released.
