This new Metallica song is just there. It’s not exciting at all. And that cover art is comically bad. I’m still going to listen to the whole record but I’m not looking that forward to it.

My kids are obsessed with the new Metallica track. I might have to take my oldest to his first metal concert, when their new tour comes to Denmark in 2024 😁🤘🏻#LuxÆterna #Metallica
