Metallica have released a four-track live EP.
Available on Amazon Music, 'The Amsterdam Sessions' comprises a mix of both old and new songs, and arrives with a set of accompanying live videos from the thrash metal icons' recent in-studio performance in the Netherlands.
The exclusive release captures the band storming through classics Master Of Puppets and Nothing Else Matters, as well as If Darkness Had A Son and Lux Æterna, both from their new album, '72 Seasons'.
Filmed professionally by the Mercury Studios production company, the clips come complete with full stage lighting and big screen visuals. Watch the full sessions via Amazon here. Check out the performance video of If Darkness Had A Son below.
