Metallica 72 Reasons coverMetallica’s 12th studio album, “72 Seasons”, will arrive on April 14th, 2023, on the band’s own Blackened Recordings. Produced by Greg Fidelman with Hetfield & Ulrich and clocking in at over 77 minutes, the 12-track album is the band’s first full-length collection of new material since 2016’s “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct”.

Speaking on the concept of the album title, James said: “‘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 a reenactment or reaction to these childhood experiences. Prisoners of childhood or breaking free of those bondages we carry”.

Watch the video for the new single “Lux Æterna”. below.

The album package was once again conceived and art directed by acclaimed designer David Turner, and his team. David, who won a Grammy for his work on “Death Magnetic”, is the man behind the look and feel of the band’s all recent releases, including “Through the Never”, “S&M2”, and “Hardwired”.

“72 Seasons” is available for pre-order now on CD, 2LP 140g black vinyl, two different colored vinyl variations, and digitally here.
