Metallica Release First Single From New Album, Announce Tour of Europe and North America

Metallica – ‘Lux Æterna’



In a press release, the band’s lead singer, James Hetfield, shared his inspiration for the album title. “72 Seasons. The first 18 years of our lives that form our true or false selves,” Hetfield said.

He continued, “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.”

The full list of tour dates can be found here, and supports have already been announced, including UK metal band Architects and Texan thrashers Pantera. Also included are Greta Van Fleet whose Led Zeppelin-lite aesthetic has received both praise and derision. 72 Seasons is Metallica’s first new album since Hardwired… to Self-Destruct, which came out in November 2016.
