Join the global Metallica family on Thursday, April 13, for a worldwide listening party!

Be the first to hear the band’s new album, 72 Seasons, the day before its release, on the big screen with pummeling surround sound in this special event exclusively in cinemas for one night only. Also available in Dolby Atmos in select locations.

72 Seasons is Metallica’s long-awaited 12th studio album, preceded by the new track “If Darkness Had a Son,” “Screaming Suicide,” and the first single “Lux Æterna”, — hailed upon its November 28, 2022, release as “thundering, breakneck” (Billboard), “gut-punching” (Rolling Stone) and “blistering” (USA Today).

72 Seasons - Global Premiere will feature exclusive interviews with Metallica, with the full band delving into the origins and stories behind the songs and accompanying music videos for every track on the album. The result will be a one-night-only opportunity for fans to experience 72 Seasons first and fully.

There will also be a few surprises on the night that you won’t want to miss! We look forward to welcoming you all to this historic night in cinemas around the world.

This is potentially.... EPIC! At least, for me it is....

Awesome, jumped on that. Theater 10 mins from my house, got two seats in the middle, cool man. $34.78.

I just ordered 2 tickets for this in Chicago. I must be nuts! 2 hour drive...but I figure my wife and I can spend the night. Spontaneous....

Awhile ago now, can't remember, when Soundgarden (post Cornell's death) had there one night only movie party at The Wiltern in LA, my wife and I went, it was a drag, way too loud and just not that good. It was supposed to be 360 surround or something like that.

Yeah, just make it a one night in Chicago.

I have no doubt, Metallica will make this right. It will be a badass show. I also grabbed 2 seats in the middle of the theater.

I wonder who did the Atmos mix for this event?

I wonder who did the Atmos mix for this event?

It says it is a listening party, so I assume they are playing the studio album in Atmos, probably in its entirety. Not sure what else will be part of the experience. I think this will be on Apple Music streaming tomorrow as well. EDIT: not tomorrow but on day of release (April 14).

EDIT: Or maybe the band is playing it live? IDK

Upmixed to Atmos or actually mixed in Atmos?

The preview track on Apple Music is mixed in Atmos. Or are you saying it sounds like an upmix? It's been awhile since I listened to it so I can't remember if it was good or not.

Oh, I’m sorry. Did you want to come to San Mateo?
What was your idea of a watch party?

You know, a Watch party. Everyone gets together and stares at their Rolex.
