Metallica

As of August 4, 2023, when Metallica performed "Seek & Destroy" at MetLife Stadium, they were deep into their M72 World Tour. This tour marked a significant milestone, celebrating their latest studio album, *72 Seasons*, released back in April 2023. Interestingly, *72 Seasons* explores themes surrounding the passage of time, which resonates deeply within the heavy-hitting, energetic atmosphere of a live Metallica show. Notably, the band's ability to connect with fans during gargantuan performances like this speaks volumes about their enduring legacy, some 40 years into their career. It’s fascinating how they’ve adapted over the decades—from thrash metal pioneers to massive stadium rock icons—yet continue to bring the thunder, delivering electrifying experiences that leave audiences buzzing long after the final note fades. The recording not only captures that raw energy but also showcases a band that’s still passionate about their craft, evolving while still staying true to what makes them Metallica.
