Music Video of the Day: If Darkness Had A Son by Metallica (2023, directed by Timothy Saccenti)

Posted on by Jedadiah Leland

Today’s music video of the day is the third single from Metallica’s 11th studio album (and the second Metallica album to be released by their own label), 72 Seasons.  This video finds the band performing in front of what appears to be a tank that is full of both water and flames.  This song marries the hard sound of Metallica with some of the most serious and introspective lyrics that James Hetfield has ever sung.  If darkness had a son, who would that son be?

Along with directing several other videos from 72 Seasons, Timothy Saccenti has worked with Korn, Phantogram, Franz Ferdinand, Depeche Mode, and the Animal Collective.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: You Must Burn! by Metallica (2023, directed by Timothy Saccenti)

Metallica burns the stage with today’s music video of the day.  You Must Burn! is one of the many songs to be found on Metallica’s 11th studio album, 72 Seasons.  This song (and this album) finds Metallica playing with a new-found intensity while James Hetfield releases some of his most introspective and troubled lyrics to date.  It’s a good return to form.

The video was directed by Timothy Saccenti, who did several of the other 72 Seasons videos as well.

Enjoy!
