Released on April 14, 2023, 72 Seasons is the twelfth studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica. It was produced by Greg Fidelman, who also produced the band's previous studio album, Hardwired... to Self-Destruct (2016), and is therefore the band's second studio album to be released via Blackened.
The album's title, 72 Seasons, refers to the first 18 years of our lives, which Metallica believes are the most formative in shaping our personalities. The album's lyrics explore themes of childhood trauma, addiction, and mental health.
72 Seasons is a heavy and intense album that showcases Metallica's signature sound of distorted guitars, pounding drums, and James Hetfield's powerful vocals. The album is also notable for its use of dynamics, with the band transitioning between slow, brooding passages and fast, heavy riffs.
