Looking back on it, it was pretty obvious actually. They had already started a full media campaign with all kinds of promotional stuff a good 9-12 months before the album dropped. These guys were doing talk-show tours and new merchandising deals for months before Lux Eterna was released as the first single. They just didn’t talk about new material and made sure that nobody else did either. They are Metallica after all - if there’s one band that knows business and marketing, it’s these guys.

Lars killed it with double kick! Awesome

I am 45 years old. For about 30 years I've been listening to heavy metal and its subgenres. It's impressive. Nothing, absolutely nothing that was recorded or that is recorded surpasses: "Ride the Lightning", "Master of Puppets" and "... and justice for all". They are eternal albums. In 100 years when they talk about heavy metal, I'm sure these 3 albums will be cited as a reference. Metallica is the greatest metal band in history.

I don't think I've heard Lars this tight ever. Incredible performance.

Metallica makes me emotional for some reason. I always knew who they were, knew some songs, but the way I've become so obsessed these last few months, got tickets to their show in LA, went to the album screening. I even saw Blackened whisky in a store this weekend and bought it... I feel captured by their intensity at this stage in their career.

They play and sing this live with impressive precision, it's fun to watch.. Metallica is the Best

Lars you maniac! Goosebumps.

Despite all the comments about how this song is lame or how they are going back to the same old habits - Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion and that is totally cool - But to still have Metallica in 2023 performing at this level is absolutely a gift and we should just enjoy the ride for however long it remains...Simply, thank you Metallica...

I like that kirk impovises on his solo everytime

Killed it, don't know how they do it so good for so long like they do. They are the kings

Why is no one psyched by that yellow bass of Robert? Its so sick!!!

The band, bravo. Boys, you sound great for your mileage. Lars, this is your best drumming ever. I keep quiet and watch everything all the way back to the 80's. This is tight. You have worked on this and deserve the praise.

Such a live banger! Also loving Rob's distressed Yellow bass.

Rob's backing vocals were really good!
