Metallica have made the music videos for their new album 72 Seasons accessible for the deaf with American Sign Language (Asl) interpretations of all 12 clips.
The band teamed with the Deaf Professional Arts Network (Dpan) and Amber G Productions for the Asl versions. For each, the original video is shown split screen alongside an Asl interpreter, who translates the lyrics and rocks out in cadence to the song during instrumental sections.
“Metallica has shown the world what access and inclusiveness can look like,” said Amber Galloway of Amber G Productions via a press release. “Often times hearing individuals think that captioning a music video is sufficient. Sadly text does not show intonations, it doesn’t show the emotional connection that Asl does. These videos also capture the voices of the instruments.”
The Asl videos are the result of Metallica connecting with Galloway, whose team is known for signing at several music festivals the band has headlined,...

Wes Craven’s original film premiered in 1996 and promptly unleashed a wave of teen meta-slashers that would dominate the genre for the remainder of the decade. From the filmmaking collective Radio Silence, Scream VI manages to strike the perfect balance of homage to the past while moving the story forward.
We won’t reveal spoilers here, but the film features an unprecedented reverence to all nine of the Ghostface killers who’ve come before with a museum-like shrine including their individual costumes, weapons, and personal artifacts. It’s a fun trip down memory lane, but what about their victims?
Don’t those who’ve stared down the long, vacant eyes of the silently screaming face deserve some love as well? In honor of innocents often left out in the cold, we’ve compiled a list of ten Scream franchise characters we...
