Magyarországra is eljut az a világszerte megrendezésre kerülő mozis esemény, amely a Metallica új lemeze köré lesz felhúzva. A 72 Seasons április (2023) közepén jelenik meg, azonban a legnagyobb rajongóknak lehetőségük lesz a számokat meghallgatni premier előtt! A nagyjából kétórás szeánsz. Nem csak az új dalok mennek majd le ilyen hosszban, némi képanyag is társulni fog hozzájuk, mégpedig exkluzív felvételek csak erre a vetítésre szánva az együttes tagjaival. Az általános interjúkon kívül olyan kulisszák mögötti videók is lesznek az album készültéről, amelyekből kiderül, miként születtek az új dalok, mi a történetük és miként készülhetett minden szerzeményhez videoklip is.

I have to come to terms with the fact that the times of the first three albums (RIP Cliff Burton), and the still great fourth one, will not return. It is Cliff's songwriting input and liveliness that the band sorely misses, and they have never been able to replace that absence. So their entire career has been living off only from their most prolific beginnings in the 1980s and their enormous global influence on the mainstream thanks to three tracks from the “Black Album”. Since the mid-90s there’s been a gradual decline, not in popularity, but in inventiveness and the ability to write distinctive songs, and you can see that in 72 seasons. There are only three tracks that I can say are at least a little bit out of the uniform mass (the best is “Lux Aeterna”, such a nice return to simplicity of “Kill 'Em All”, the old foxes knew well why to put it as the first clip), otherwise it's quite flat and the distinctive musical motif can be found only with a magnifying glass. As far as the visuals go, about a third of the clips with steady visual stylisation were fine, and about a third, where the primitive black and white eight-bit graphics "stood out", were almost impossible to watch. Otherwise, though, for a old geezer like me, it’s alright. I had a beer, admired the great vocal condition of the skinny James Hetfield, and reminisced about my youth, the time of “Master of Puppets” and “Ride the Lightning”, two of the best albums in metal history. It still amazes me that they recorded it at a time when they had just passed the age of twenty.
