A New Metallica Album you say?
METALLICA NEW ALBUM, 72 SEASONS, OUT APRIL 14, 2023
The new Metallica album, song title and the release date of the 13th album from Metallica are slated to be made available by the band through their Blackened Recordings label on April 14, 2023. Produced by Greg Fidelman with Hetfield & Ulrich, and clocking in at 77 minutes, the 12-track 72 Seasons is Metallica ‘s first full length compilation of new material since 2016 ‘s Hardwired to Self-Destruct.
Produced by Greg Fidelman, along with James and Lars, 72 Seasons is available for pre-order now on CD, 2LP 140g black vinyl, two different colored vinyl variations, and digitally in the Met Store. Every pre-order will receive a digital instant grat track of the first song they are releasing, “Lux Æterna,” and you can check out the brand new video, one of the coolest they’ve ever made, on their YouTube channel or by watching below. Recently in Los Angeles, we had their performance expertly captured by Tim Saccenti using some cutting-edge technology.
The album package was once again conceived and art directed by our good friend, acclaimed designer David Turner, and his team. David, who won a Grammy for his work on Death Magnetic. Turner is the man behind the look and feel of all of our recent releases, including Through The Never, S&M2, and Hardwired.
What Is The Story Of The Name Of 72 Seasons
“Is there a special meaning to the title?” you ask. James explains it best: “72 seasons. The first 18 years of our lives that form our true or false selves. The concept that we were told ‘who we are’ by our parents. A possible pigeonholing around what kind of personality we are. I think the most interesting part of this is the continued study of those core beliefs and how it affects our perception of the world today. Much of our adult experience is reenactment or reaction to these childhood experiences. Prisoners of childhood or breaking free of those bondages we carry.”
