What is the final track on Metallica's 2023 album 72 Seasons?

The story behind the answer

The final track on Metallica’s 2023 album 72 Seasons is “Inamorata.”

“Inamorata” closes the album with a runtime of about 11 minutes and 10 seconds. It is Metallica’s longest original song as of its release, exceeding “Suicide & Redemption” from 2008’s Death Magnetic by 73 seconds. James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich have described the song as a natural, powerful way to round out the record.

72 Seasons is Metallica’s eleventh studio album and was released on April 14, 2023. Greg Fidelman produced the album with Hetfield and Ulrich, and the sessions took place at Metallica’s headquarters in San Rafael, California, between March 2021 and November 2022.

The common mistake is choosing one of the album’s other late-running tracks, such as “Chasing Light,” “Crown of Barbed Wire,” or “Room of Mirrors.” Those songs appear earlier in the sequence; “Inamorata” is the closing track and the album’s extended finale.
