Metallica - Just a Bullet Away (Sounds like Hell March)

[Sonic 296]

Cool Metallica song here, called "Just a Bullet Away", also known as as "Shine". Its previously unreleased song that never made it on to 2008's Death Magnetic. But I want to draw your attention to some of the riffs, listen carefully, the have a kind of Hell March vibe.

There's a new EP out soon called Beyond Magnetic. You can buy it on iTunes now. CD version is out soon I think. News posted here http://www.metallica.com/news/20120103-news.asp. it includes this this song plus 3 others

1. Hate Train
   
2. Just a Bullet Away
   
3. Hell and Back
   
4. Rebel of Babylon
   

 

The band stated the following about the EP

 

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 just for this special celebration, 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.

You got some catching up to do then. I've been listening to and been a Metallica fan for many years now. Finally got to see them live in October 2010.

Serious catching up. I've now been a fan for ten years. It's awesome.
