Metallica will launch their 12th studio album, 72 Seasons, with a global listening party to be held in cinemas worldwide, on April 13, one day before the album’s street date.
The launch event, in partnership with Trafalgar Releasing, will feature the full album in cinematic surround, which we’ll assume to be Dolby Atmos, with each song accompanied by a music video and exclusive commentary from the band.
72 Seasons is Metallica‘s first full-length collection of new material since 2016’s Hardwired…To Self-Destruct. The 12-track album was produced by Greg Fidelman, with James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, and runs for over 77 minutes.
