Listen to the new song by Jason Newsted.

A tweet from Mustaine made practically clear what rumors had been saying since the bands were confirmed for the festival. On June 14th, Mustaine posted the following comment:

"If I were to play a song I wrote in Metallica with Jason Newsted, which one would it be? Ride, Metal Militia, Phantom, Jump, Khutulu, or Four Horsemen?"

Last month, Newsted commented in an interview that the two might play together, although it wasn't certain. The bassist cited the song "Phantom Lord" as a possibility.
