There is zero question that, after years of being one of the hardest-working heavy metal bands in the world, Metallica remains one of the best heavy hitters that are still making music and touring the world.

Metallica will be touring the world this weekend in a different way, however, before launching into their actual tour this year. This weekend Metallica will be celebrating the release of their new album called 72 Seasons. The band themselves won’t be hitting the road but special pre-release listening parties will be happening at record stores all over the country.

In fact, there is a massive record store listening party happening all across the world one week ahead of record store day. Luckily, we were able to track down all of the record shops in Michigan that will be hosting their own Metallica 72 seasons, listening party, which is scheduled to take place on April 13 and the 14th, depending on the record stores' individual event schedule.

Here’s where you can get the first to listen to the brand-new Metallica album before anybody else throughout Michigan.

Metallica Albums Ranked

There are moments of indecision when compiling this list. After all, we really could have had – for the first time ever – a three-way tie for first.
