Beyond Magnetic is a digital/CD EP released by Metallica. The EP was released to coincide with the band’s 30th anniversary shows, in which they released a new song for all 4 days of the shows; it was released as a download on iTunes on December 13, 2011.[1] The four songs featured on the EP were all recorded during the Death Magnetic sessions but were never released.

Weighing in at three CDs and three videos, plus a bunch of tour memorabilia, the sheer bulk of Live Shit: Binge & Purge scares off anyone but the most devoted fans, which is too bad. Although it is exhausting, this box provides ample proof of the brutal power of Metallica in concert -- the entire program of a Mexico City concert is included, and it is awe-inspiring. For hardcore fans, Live Shit is a godsend.
