Metallica - 72 Seasons

I typically really like Metallica releases, and although some have been lackluster compared to the rest, I tend to find something I like out of all of them, with few exceptions. I still enjoy Death Magnetic from time to time, however I think Hardwired is far superior in terms of quality. Though that's what I would have said before 72 Seasons came out. I gotta say, I wasn't really expecting much other than the usual Metallica formula that we've come to know and love, and you know what? The album is quite good. Excellent, even. It's kind of taking a mixture of everything that makes Metallica really good and putting it all in one album. Every track is great to excellent.

At first listen, I had put this at a 10/10, but after a few listens I've decidedly given it a 9/10. It's really good but not quite perfect. I definitely recommend it though.

Final Rating: 9/10
