Metallica has shared an animated music video for the song “Inamorata” from the band’s latest album, 72 Seasons.
The track, which closes the LP, has the distinction of being the longest Metallica song to date, with a running time of 11 minutes and 10 seconds.
Metallica frontman James Hetfield, who wrote the lyrics to “Inamorata,” stated about inspiration for the cut in the 72 Seasons track-by-track breakdown video: “‘Inamorata,’ having a love affair with misery. A long classic song that screamed out to end the album. Really, really cool riffs in it, really great groove. I love the way it rounds this thing out.”
