On the album 72 Season, James Hetfield revealed that he had a lot of collaboration from all members of Metallica

72 Seasonsreleased on April 14, 2023, is the eleventh studio album by metallicaone of the greatest American rock bands, and had a great evolution in relation to the other works of the group: the vocals of .

During podcast interview Metal Ambassadorfrom the radio Sirius XM, talked a lot about the band’s new album. “I know, 42 years [de carreira] and this is only our 11th album. It shows that we put a lot of time and care into what we do, not trying to overthink everything, just let it flow,” said the artist. “So when you start that creative process, it’s like, ‘It needs to be better…'”

“And the songs can get a little complicated here and there, but it’s really about the riff; the simplicity of the riff,” continued Hetfield. “So yeah, definitely have the Sabbath there. And vocally, trying to evolve too, without losing the grunt in the face. So I think I got a good balance in that, with the help of everyone else on the team.”

It’s really interesting when I try to do some vocal stuff; something unique, more vulnerable, [e] everyone sort of takes a step back: ‘Jeez, what’s going on here?’ I answer: ‘Relax guys, I know what I do best, but I also want to evolve as a singer.’ So there’s a lot of give and take there, same as everyone’s skill

Also, James Hetfield celebrated the great teamwork that Metallica had to do to bring the 72 Seasons: “The bass – robert [Trujillo] did a fantastic job. I think, at least in my personal life, the inclusion of others – it really was Lars [Ulrich] and me [no passado], just going through the riff tapes. But involving the guys from day one, in the studio, in the writing process, helped a lot with the vibe of this album.
