''Four Cuts'' is an EP by heavy metal band Diamond Head and was released in 1982. It was a double A-side with "Call Me" and "Trick or Treat", and was released by MCA. The EP also contained "Dead Reckoning" and a re-recorded version of "Shoot Out the Lights" as the two B-sides. This was the band's first release on a major label, and was designed to be a taster for their second album. "Call Me" was later released as a single in its own right later that same year. The song also appeared on Diamond Head's second studio album, '' Borrowed Time'', their first album to be released by MCA. "Trick or Treat" and "Dead Reckoning" were favourites in the band's live set during the 80s. However, neither song made it onto the ''Borrowed Time'' album until it was re-released in 2007 by
