Metallica are offering fans a free download of their entire June 22 soundcheck from Orion Music + More festival, which took place at Bader Field in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
The soundcheck set includes three tracks: “Creeping Death,” “Hell And Back” and “The Call Of Ktulu.”

Metallica headlined both nights at the festival. On June 23, they played all of Ride The Lightning; they performed the Black album on June 24.
