    As a 50 year old father of 6 whos been with this band since I was 10 11. This song is a gem. I hear JJSTICE ,LIGHTNING, LOAD and hints of BLACK..very very Justice overall for me..KINGS

    72 seasons is how many seasons there is in a humans first 18 yrs of living, so this album is about those first 18 yrs of a human life..
    One thing Metallica can do they showcase in this song, is having a drum beat, put a riff over it, and it already sound badass, its not as easy to do as it may sound, making it that simple, and make it work..

    For me this one feels like the crossed Eye Of The Beholder with Cyanide and put it on the Load album. I like it a lot, but I think in terms of repeat listening the other two tracks we've gotten so far from the new album will get more playtime from me. Lux Aeterna was fun from the first time I heard it, sort of a more modern Hit The Lights. Screaming Suicide didn't grab me quite as fast, but after repeated listenings it's become my favorite of the three.

    Another great reaction! I appreciate your overall positive outlook and genuine interest in metal. Lately, I've been kind of surprised by how many supposed "fans" have been negatively reacting to these new songs and bashing Metallica. I guess some people care more about getting views than being genuine.
    I've been a Metallica fan for 30 years now, that will never change. The 72 Seasons release date is actually one day before my 40th birthday. I'll be having my own private listening party with family and friends.
    Keep up the awesome reactions and keep on rockin'!

      We are negatively reacting to these new songs by Metallica because they are objectively pretty bad. If these same songs were released by any other band, the reaction would be "meh".
      I say this as one of the biggest fans of Metallica ever...post Black Album and everything. Thought Load and Reload were underrated, St. Anger was pretty bad, *loved* Death Magnetic and thought Hardwired was pretty good.
      But man, these new songs from 72 Seasons are just straight trash.

    ❤️❤️🎼 Love your reactions!! Yes, it's a bit of old school Metallica to me too, but I'm hearing Eye of the Beholder vibes from And Justice For All album. I'm 58 and a fan since 84' been blessed to have seen them 9x throughout 80s 90s 2000s...these guys are absolutely the best live! Please react to any song of Seattle 89' live, it was one hell of a show!! They were in their prime imo! But I really really would love for you to react to 2009 Nimes, The day that never comes! Phenomenal! It's about abuse. Anyways, I love your reactions! 🥰 Also, 72 seasons is how many seasons to become an adult 18 years. These guys are my Absolute favorite band!! Thanks and much love!❤️🎼🎸🖤

Also hoping they chuck an instrumental onto the album that might showcase some of Robs bass that he's capable off as he's shown in Suicidal Tendencies.

    I just went through Metallica's whole list of Albums and can honestly say that there is a definate span of rythem and tone that they drew their inspiration. Specifically: " The Struggle Within " - Black, " Better than You " - Re-Load, " That was just Your Life " and " Broken Beat and Scared " - Death Magnetic, Now that We're Dead " - Hard Wired, I found to be very close in their rythem and Tempo but at the end of the day, Who the Fuck cares?
