@Crazy man I loved Darkness at the first listen. It was a gutwrencher in the first order. And 72 was fun. Screaming Suicide ended up being a great message for myself. The problem I have with most of the album is that, there really aren't more, like, SONGS. The rest is like they kinda checked their musicianship at the door. This is my first impression. It's not flattering, but... :/ What can I say. I'll figure this out.

One thing I've noticed about Metallica on the last two records is they have a serious problem moving from the tonic and building a chord progression. Too Far Gone is actually the only example on the new record where the chorus has a discernible progression of chords. It's quite hard to create catchy or impactful vocal melodies when your chords are static. If you go back and listen to basically any other era of the band, they never struggled writing a chord progression, but something has gone a bit strange in this era. Still, I think this album is much better than Hardwired. The second half of this record is really exciting stuff, and some of James' vocal parts were really moving actually. His voice is definitely getting stronger with age, and that's impressive. All in, I'm pretty happy with this record.

Shadows Follow has one of the most disgusting and evil riffs I’ve ever heard on a Metallica record. The record isn’t their absolute best work, but they did a great job

Kirk's ending solo in Inamorata is brutal. The emotion it carries it magnificent...

Huh, Inamorata reminded me of A National Acrobat much more than Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

James’s vocals were so good on this album. I love what it's evolved into.

It's the first album since their 2000s regenissis that sounds like 80s Metallica Edit: also I think Inamorata might have a James guitar solo Edit edit: I'm finding it better with every listen

Rob wrote the verse riffs in screaming suicide. I read an interview where he said he wanted to write a climbing riff that MetallicA never wrote before but the climbing verse riff in screaming suicide has been written before in House that jack built.

My favorite riff is the one before the solo on Crown of Barbed Wire. Frickin heavy man.

I loved his solos in inamorata

My personal favorites were Shadows Follow, Lux Aeterna, Room of Mirrors and Inamoranta

I was genuinely thinking I'd have to disagree with you for once when I saw your video last night while you were walking and listening to the album. It made me sad, being a big Andriy fan! But this was a great, and accurate of a review and I'm glad we have a very similar view of this album! So happy for this release, can't wait to listen to is another 200 times over the next week!

I love the whole album. Not a bad word to say about it.

Im starting to love the album. At first I was upset about some aspects of the album, but after some more listening and rumination im starting to really like it. Room of mirrors and Too far gone? are classics already. I learned this album sounds better on speakers, try it out if you have some good speakers. Best record since black album and I think I mean it. By the way Too far gone is proper black album. James vocals on this album are great, like actually great, I think his efforts to sober up have restored some of his energy.

72 Seasons falls flat for me. I've never heard Metallica sound so generic and write such bland tunes. Not sure what others are hearing tbh....but I'm glad for whoever likes it.

Kirk wrote the fast riff on 72 seasons, which I’m assuming is his writing credit. He says it in the global premiere (I saw it in the cinemas on the 13th), but idk if that specific interview is out yet

Inamorata, Crown of Barbed Wire, Room of Mirrors and Sleepwalk my Life away are amazing. This album is really growing on me

On hardwired they released the good songs as singles... on 72 seasons, the hard, heavy & groovy songs were just waiting to jump and prowl on Metallica fans! Such a good album! On my 5th listen now... absorbing it slowly...

I loved Lux Æterna and 72 Seasons upon first hearing, Screaming Suicide took a few but I now love it, to the point I learned it on guitar. Upon hearing the full album, If Darkness Had a Son became much better to me. And found bangers in Shadows Follow, Too Far Gone? and Inamorata. The rest is pretty ok, “You Must Burn” stands a little more. If I had to give it a mark, 4 out of 5. May seem too much but man, some artists are truly making their worst albums in this time period (Green Day, RHCP and Pearl Jam come to mind)

Sure, it's not at the level of their 80s album, but it's still a great album with great variety and, for me personally, it's definitely better than Hardwired and even Death Magnetic. I've read several comments saying that this album is like a mix of Hardwired and the Lord albums and I'm like "how!?". This album, like you say, it's definitely faster overall than Hardwired, and even the slower tracks are not that bad. Something else is that, while the album does have a pretty similar sound to Hardwired, I did feel an evolution. In Moth into The Flame we saw James singing in a more melodic style that sounded quite different to previous albums, and here he expands a lot on that kind of more melodic vocal lines, which I really liked.

Yeah. This album is much better than Hardwired. It's better in every way.

Did I just became part of your channel's lore? Cool, I guess 😅 Been following you on my main yt account for quite some time (from the time of old covers). Not sure why I commented using this alt account. Feels weird being acknowledged this way. Also, I listened with my brother MoP album today and his mind was completely blown away. Can't wait to show him more. I suppose is just my projection on discovering a band/genre. After all, my first song I heard from Metallica (that I actually played myself, and not from random listening and not fully paying attention) was Purify (what can I say, it went uphill from there!). Sorry if it's too long or foolish, just wanted to say more on the previous comment 🤘

72 seasons is brilliant. I did not agree with your perceptions of the other singles. I have loved every single song. Metallica are brilliant!!! Best Band ever.

Excellent album, really enjoying . Good review

Good review Andriy, good job. The riff in Chasing Light is one of the best riffs on 72 Seasons imo, one of the best riffs from Metallica dare i say.

Unlike Hardwired… I don’t skip a song on 72 seasons. It’s been a while since I’ve had a Metallica album where I didn’t skip a song. I think Load was the last album I didn’t ever skip a song.

72 season kicks ass. The more I listen to it the more I like it. It has grown on me like no other Metallica album. Great stuff!

Andriy should do a vid ranking the metallica logo off each album. It’d be cool.

I was much more hyped for you review than for the actual album. Veeery glad the album turned out the be much better than what the singles were promising.... BTW, Kirk wrote the main riff to 72 seasons! This was brought up before the song was played in the cinema yesterday, super cool

I like it, it's kind of like 90's Metallica fused with Hardwired. It's weird, but I like it. I wanted a ballad tho

Well, it turned out better than I expected based on the singles. But it doesn't come close to Hardwired. Yes, some songs on Hardwired are too long, the solos are not great, but the songs have themes. You read the song titles, listen to the lyrics and it all makes sense. There is an atmosphere to each track, so you can actually tell them apart. Plus some cool clean intros, some very memorable riffs and vocal lines. 72 seasons is basically a Wanna-Be-Hardwired, but it lacks most of the points I mentioned.

I don’t agree personally, there are songs on this record which need some retooling (Sleepwalk, If Darkness, Chasing Light) but still have very memorable and amazing moments Hardwired could lose 3 songs completely and be much better (ManUNkind, Murder One, Here Comes Revenge)

@tylerlansky1186

Жыл бұрын

@@AustinOgonoski Yeah, the comparison with Beyond Magnetic is spot on. I can't shake off the feeling on some of the tracks that I'm listening to some demo/not-final-release-version. Like Too Far Gone would have been an awesome track if only they made a chorus longer (the speedup part) for people to single along. Or the title 72 season track, catchy verse and chorus, but then they've put unnecessary chromatic half-break-half-bridge in between that completely ruins the pace of the song.

@tylerlansky1186

Жыл бұрын

@@charlesbaker7505 Well I guess it's a question of personal taste as always in music. I do like all 3 tracks from Hardwired that you mentioned. One of the reasons for that is that they have very memorable riffs. Like manunkind main riff with that cool swing, or murder one riff with a chromatic hammering bit. There are almost no riffs like that on 72 season (there are some, but definitely not on every track)

Just enjoy what ya wanna enjoy and dont let somebodys opinion take that joy from you. Long live MetallicA.

The bridge riff to You Must Burn is my favorite on the album. That and the main riff of Shadows Follow and the chorus of Chasing Light

Best album since Justice. 🔥🔥🔥

And Death Magnetic still the best album after the first five…

true if u have good remixes

I think 'Inamorata' is revisiting 'My friend of misery' due to the unique sound, the whole idea of the song, a big role given to bass

Oh Dude i agree with you !!!! I am shouting that all over. This is not Metallicas last album. Metallica lyrically will close this carrer with redemption and lightness in order James reverse his path .

Who cares if it's controversial. I would personally disagree. Actually, SCREAMING is great if they would've just gone into the main riff instead of that meandering and misleading intro that makes me want to skip the song.

On first listen, I feel like there are a lot of cool riffs and ideas on the album that just didn't really go anywhere. I love the main riffs from 72 Seasons and Sleepwalk My Life Away, but when each and every song kicks into the first verse, they all sound very similar. Room of Mirrors is my favorite of the album; it's fast, the harmonies are nice, and James doesn't sound like he's straining his voice too much.

So far my favorite song from the ones not released as singles is Shadows Follow. My favorite riff is the main one from Chasing Light. But the album is definitely growing on me as a whole. I'm sure I'll discover new stuff along the way.

This album can be called Re-Hardwired 😅

72 Seasons is much better than I expected, I love this album! James's vocals are definitely a huge highlight for this album imo, he does something cool on each song on the album and there's lots of cool riffs. This album tops Death Magnetic/Beyond Magnetic and Hardwired for me, and that's saying a lot because I freaking love those albums. I'm honestly blown away, this album exceeded my expectations based on the singles! Long live Metallica! #MUYA
