Is the new Metallica innovative? Vocal ANALYSIS and thoughts on "72 Seasons".

Ойындар

I've listened to a lot of Metallica since starting this channel, so have a lot of experience with the trajectory of James Hetfield's vocal journey. When they released their new album, I analyzed "Lux Aeterna" and was pleasantly surprised with their mature new sound. Now it's time to see why the Grammy's nominated "72 Seasons" and prime for my final thoughts video later this week!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Metallica performing "72 Seasons" for the first time.

    The inspiration of 72 Seasons came out of a book James Hetfield was reading about childhood, basically, and sorting out childhood as an adult. And 72 seasons is basically the first 18 years of your life. It delves into the crucial formative years of our lives when the die is cast to determine who we become as adults. The song highlights how childhood traumas or negative experiences shape our adult selves.

    Trauma is mostly good. It makes you interesting and have depth. Just have to be able to be self aware and you can use it for good like drive and ambition in your life, helping others, thinking out of the box, handling stress better than others,etc. But society wants us all to be carbon copies or in same box. It’s why i think school will all be done on computer and you will get your socialization from other places that aren’t even created yet. It’s society that screws up up when we’ve been thru or seen bad things but 100s of years ago everyone went thru that or saw it and so society wasn’t as harsh as now and that’s what made us feel worse. We need James Hetfields and we wouldn’t without Trauma. We might not have Elizebeth without trauma and her drive. You just have to accept and be self aware so you don’t use it as excuse in your life or think your trauma is the worst-you only know what you know so it’s your choice from there and you have to learn that. You’ll be fine and special if that’s what you want and one big thing is you have to see the trauma you went thru with your new older brain because people get stuck looking at bad memories as if they’re still that age. Use your older brain to view it. You can’t have good without bad. Can’t have happy without sad. Forgive yourself and the people that did it to you and it will give you incredible strength -sounds stupid but it’s where the freedom is & will set you free from the jail and the walls you built.

    As someone who knows a bit about vocal technique, James has definitely improved his technique to the point that it always hits right and It doesn't sound like he's straining his voice. I have to say that earlier albums are hard for me to listen to due to how forced some of the higher notes sound. But, regardless, Metallica has always had great vocals!!! 🤘🤘

    What's funny is that too many of the old school fans shit on them since 91 for that exact reason. They had, and have, a lot of musical influences and didn't want to keep playing the same riffs. I think it's a good thing they tried new things, and that some failed. If they didn't try new things we wouldn't have gotten S&M or Garage, Inc. Who would have thought the biggest band on earth would or should do a cover album?

    James uses his voice almost as percussion. To me that's his most distinctive ability. He always did it to some extent, but it really showed in Load (1996), which I wouldn't say is the band's best, but it's the one James Hetfield's voice really perfected this quality which punctuates the songs rhythmically.

I like the last 3 albums, but none of them rate higher then a 6/10. Voivod, and Kreator are releasing better albums. The problem with Metallica's song writing is that they've lost the ability to self edit themselves to the point where their albums/songs become bloated, and to lots of people, boring. If they trimmed down their song/album lengths and made things more concise then they would be much stronger. Still most bands can't touch their early output.

This was a new thing for him, where he didn’t have to worry about who was waiting for him to finish. This album has some of the interesting vocal work of any of their albums, imho.

Perhaps my biggest let down in the album is that most of the good and not so good songs have more or less the same base. I enjoy variaty and consistancy, thou the style is consistant, to me this album just lacked passion. Compared to Harwired for example. I understand that not every album can hit the mark with everybody. It is hard for me to pin point exactly what's not quite there for me. I listen to 72 from time to time. Thou not my first choice it is still a good album.

    Binge watching your many analyses of music, is great fun! It is refreshing to see how you are able to find virtue in most all songs and genre. Very often, coming from a mostly serious music background - either as performers or as mere listeners - we develop a most unfair bit of snobbery towards anything musically disparate from what we happen to know or wish to discover. I grew up with this band (‘80’s) and now live up the street from Lincoln Centre and The Metropolitan Opera House which affords one the opportunity to take-in concerts on a whim - and to which I take full advantage of the geography. And tho it deeply pleases me to see a band continue to produce music that doesn’t diminish from how organically music can and should be created

Your facial expressions never fail to make me smile! I also love to see you getting giddy with joy whenever you listen to any music for the first time!When I watched your reaction and analysis for Nirvana's cover of The Man Who Sold The World acoustically on MTV Unplugged,the moment you told all us as viewers that a voice should not be perfect,but a voice should be what the message needs to be delivered,I can't help but to appreciate you for being such an authentic,pure and positive person! So I have to thank you for sharing the gift! May you continue to take me and all of us on a journey of appreciating music! Yours Lovingly, Debarati! 😊❤🎉

    I woke up from a dream last night in which Elizabeth started a band. She, of course, was the singer and all of her band was just the guys from Metallica but each were playing different instruments than what they normally play. For their first video, they did a cover of "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple. Elizabeth sounded EXACTLY like Ian Gillan but the rest of the band sounded like an elementary school orchestra recital.

    I think this song may be their most artistic. The theme of the album deals with the first 18 years of life. We find references to this in the lyrics. I think the intro and outro are expressions of before and afterlife. They're expressing the seasons of life in blocks with distinct vocal and rythmatic expression that express seasons or periods of our lives. As far as the music video. The sun is represented centrally with the band at times, spining around the sun. There is a lot of fire, but there is some blue, cool coloring, which is expressing to me up and down of life. Lastly, I think the length of the song is intentional in that it takes you for a ride and is almost tiring, almost too much. Just like life. Lastly, I want to say that about half the reason I watch these videos is just for Elizabeth's expressions. She wears the experiences on her sleeve, if you will.
