Last week, Jason Newsted announced plans to release the debut EP from his new solo project, aptly titled Newsted. And last night (December 17), the former Metallica bassist premiered a song off the EP on Sirius XM’s Eddie Trunk Live.

Titled “Soldierhead,” the song definitely lives up to the EP’s title, Metal. Sounding like a mix of Motorhead and Testament, fans of Metallica will definitely enjoy. So far, an official stream of the song has yet to be released (though a video was filmed this past weekend). However, you can check out quality audio version of the song in the video after the jump (at least until it gets taken down).
