Metallica Unveil Limited Edition EP And Artwork

Metallica have announced plans to release a limited edition EP to mark their upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand.

The ‘Six Feet Down Under EP’ will be released on September 20 via www.metallica.com.

It includes eight songs recorded during the band's previous vists to both countries.

In a statement, Metallica said: “Be gentle with us . . . a few of these songs are, well, we'll say ‘rough,’ which may be an understatement!!

“They do, however, capture the live moments and hopefully you'll have as much fun listening as we did playing on those nights.”

The band are due to embark on their first tour of Australia and New Zealand in six years this autumn.
