"Screaming Suicide addresses the taboo word of suicide,” says James Hetfield. "The intention is to communicate about the darkness we feel inside. It's ridiculous to think we should deny that we have these thoughts. At one point or another I believe most people have thought about it. To face it is to speak the unspoken. If it's a human experience, we should be able to talk about it. You are not alone.”
Speak the unspoken LOL! I dont see your crew screaming lyrics about "Sepher Yetzirah" , you seem like brian warner trying receive the gospel of justin beaver and kanye west church.jajaja
Hate to be a party pooper, but I must ask. Is this to make up for all the people that commited suicide listening to Fade to Black? I lost a friend to that song.
@DigitalizedDeath we dont expect em to keep writing the Same 4 albums, but honestly, if they can write 4 the same, they Can write more the same or somewhat the same instead of this non memorable Crap they been putting out. Theyre Lost...Some people just cant admit it, THEY SUCK!
@Brady DeAngelo was that before or after they started crying about being old and not being about to keep playing? And started skipping parts of songs love because they can't play it?
hoy con 41 años escucho esta cancion y vuelvo a mis 13 años escuchando a metallica en casette, que grandes recuerdo y este tema me remite a ellos, metallica puede parecer acabada pero sale con un tema como este y desmuestran ser los mejores del heavy metal y que el trash no murio, aguaante metallica y aguante el heavy metal.
Antes de discutir si sonaba mejor en Kilem All o en ReLoad evolucionen muchachos, pasaron 40 años... Siguen sonando de puta madre y al que no le guste vaya a escuchar jV Balbín o como mierda sea
@rpgg80 Bullshit it’s a lazy effort !hardwired sounded a thousand times better. They took the safe route and it’s boooooring! I love the band as much as anyone else but this is weak!
@Totc don't like it, don't listen to it. Simple as that. I don't blame them at all for wanting to variate a little bit. It's their choice and right. These songs kind of have the same vibe as 'Kill 'Em All', the guitar riffs and everything. Of course is not perfect but it's different. In the whole generality itself it's a good song.
Totally agreed. Hope they take care of themselves as good as Hetfield takes care of his voice. Believe me and hope i'm not wrong, these guys will still give us some good years of music. I really hope they do it. Our soul needs it. It's like an emotional and therapeutical treatment for our well-being and purification of our humor. And they say these guys are almost 60 years-old. Nobody would ever say it.
Love this song. Has anyone here been to a Metallica concert recently and heard what James says right before the outro bridge to “Fade to Black”? He stops the song entirely and says we are not alone, any of us. I love it.
I love how metal can make you feel like that you might be suicidal or have dark thoughts but the community and love uplifts me through the riffs and the beautiful energy!
You can hear James' voice changed a bit, but that's not a bad thing at all. It perfectly fits this song, and i really hope there will be more songs like this one
I love the new vocal technique James has been using, as well as the old school approach to songwriting. Also, the black bars flashing white is a very unique visual touch I enjoyed a lot as well
Man, this and Lux really shocked the shit out of me. You can tell they’re not forcing it this time around and just having fun with it. It seems my guys may have reinvented themselves yet again, and I fucking love to see it
♫ *"Screaming Suicide"* ♫ Welcome to this life Born into the fight Here to claim your dream Look you in the eye Patch the broken sky Craving dopamine Then my voice appears Teaching you of fears Are you good enough? You don't recognize Head is full of lies You should just give up Listen well, better listen well Listen well, better listen well Don't ever speak my name Remember you're to blame Keep me inside Keep me inside My name is suicide Curse another day Spirit locked away Punish and deprive Hate to be awake Living a mistake More dead than alive Then a voice appears Whisper in your ears "You are good enough" Throwing down a rope A lifeline of hope Never give you up Listen well, better listen well Listen well, better listen well Don't ever speak my name Remember you're to blame Keep me inside Keep me inside My name is suicide Terrified in sleepless nights Caught in spotlight dead to rights Isolate and fight your mind Telling you you're left behind My lying voice inside Keeps drinking cyanide And no more can you run Into the sun Terrified, sleepless nights Caught in spotlight dead to rights Isolate and fight your mind Telling you you're left behind And now you speak my name You've given back the blame Keep me deep inside Don't you keep me inside Screaming suicide Now that I'm exposed inside Shined a light on cyanide I'm no longer needed here Now you've faced your biggest fear
No denying the lyrics are heavy stuff and very strong but, it’s the music and the James delivery that’s poor! Metallica are just too soft and pleasant these days, where is James’s venom and spitting bile, and anger gone in his voice? He use to have such a pissed off attitude and it showed in his singing delivery. The sound is so soft and very poor especially for a song with this content, James’s guitar sound is nowhere heavy enough, where is the heavy crunch of old? Poor
Great song!!!! Holy shit this is reeaally good! Been on repeat for days now. Guitar is tough and heavy on this one. Excited for album..... Grand Slam so far!
A band that has been with me my whole life and they're still rocking. I was born on the year of the Black Album, and now enjoying this headbanging masterpiece.
James down picking and screaming with emotion, Kirk on the wha, Rob's chunky bass, and Lars going ape $#!t on the drums always makes for a great mosh pit song! 🤘
I absolutely love this song. Screaming Suicide is surprisingly the catchiest song I ever listened so far this newer upcoming album that I'm excited for.
I love this band. You guys literally saved me, the night I found this band I was feeling horrible; I had no friends to reach out to, nobody to talk to, and I felt so lonely and trapped. Metallica is slowly helping pull me out of this hole of depression, their music has helped me so much. Thank you so much.
It’s good to hear James and the boys to make this , it hits home with me not only because my brother took his life , but I find myself asking questions for answers that don’t come and it drives me nuts . So this suicidal shit is real . I know from experience
@SQUIDS! I completely disagree. Hardwired took a step back from Death Magnetic which that album was their best album since Justice. Black was an overrated album designed to attract a larger audience because of their radio friendly sound and 2 songs that were ballads.
Repent...believe in Jesus. John 3:16 KJV - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Luke 13:3 KJV - I tell you nay: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. John 3:3 KJV - “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
The groove is the bassline makes me so happy despise the darkness in this song, it's like fade to black, litsening to it makes me relieve of something i can't put word on Thank you to the band and everyone who took a part in their music for the last 40 years and what they did for us and will do for bare minimum of the next 40 years Knowing they are immortal through their music is one of the best thing ever, 30+ years later Cliff's legacy is stronger than ever, so i'm not afraid, they won't go anywhere, because they are Metallica
@Gary Stiltner Rob is pretty much, in my opinion, their best pure bassist, Cliff die way too soon to develop the skills of a 60 yo musician with 45 years of bass in his fingers and his technique is way ahead of Jason's, with all the love I have for them both
Damn it! It's good to feel that you're back to your basics with wild riffs and terribly true lyrics! I don't regret buying my 2-day Stade de France pass at all, I can't wait!!! As usual... THANK YOU Metallica !

This last tour, James always brought about this topic during the show. It was in the middle of Fade to Black when I was there in Hockenheim. And he made us all repeat after him - "I am NOT alone" What a band, what a man! \m/
@Lucas Lenin? Que eu saiba esse nunca cantou não, e morreu ja menos mal, agora quanto ao Lemmy esse faz muita falta, e ao contrário do Metallica, Motorhead nunca se vendeu, foi o que foi do início ao fim, tosco, pesado e sem frescuras, Metallica presta até o Black Álbum, depois disso só ladeira a baixo
@Lucas Oras quando Hetfield morrer fará falta mesmo, fez história, mas que Metallica não é bom mais, isso é a realidade, mas sem dúvida alguma foi uma das melhores bandas do planeta, inclusive é uma das minhas favoritas
@Draugr aproveitem enquanto metallica ainda está por ai. Duvido que vcs hoje não iram querer ver o Lenin do Motorhead cantando mesmo nos 10 dias antes dele morrer e já praticamente sem voz
I wouldn't say it's a completely new sound. Lux definitely has a modern Kill 'em sound, and this song sounding familiar with what was on Hardwired ...a "completely new sound" was St. Anger
Yeah! I was driving down the road listening to Lux Æterna on iTunes then this played next. I was like "What the fuck is THIS... it kinda sounds like Metallica..." then after a few moments I heard James and went oh HELL YEAH another 72 Seasons song. This one kicks superior ASS
James' vocals sound a little like Motorhead. Awesome single! Keep making this music, fellas! My two sons LOVE's this music as much as I did back in 83! You should see the people's faces pulling up to school and Kill 'Em All is blaring at 8am. Cheers everybody!
@Deathevokation I’m fully aware, and for the record, it’s called a figure of speech. A simile, if you will. The use of the word ‘like’ should have given it away. I didn’t think I’d actually need to qualify it.
Metallica e sua incrível capacidade de criar refrões marcantes e pegajosos. Eu gostei mais dessa música do que de Lux eterna. Estou ansioso para o lançamento desse novo álbum no dia 14. Ótimo trabalho do Greg Fidelman, James Hetfield e Lars Ulrich.
Video was great, till the end when it's "well this might not be as good as their classic shit".....so far Lux Eterna and this are as good of songs as anything they have ever done. They can't all be Damage Inc or Fight Fire With Fire. Can't effing wait to see them this August! Pantera opening...holy shit!!!
OH MY GOD...I have been a Metallica fan since 1983..grew up with them all my life..and this is THE FIRST TIME IN ALL THOSE YEARS THEY MADE ME CRY. HOLY S**T.
And they say this band is almost 60 years-old ... 💪😆😆🤘🤘 The more they play the better they become and the better they sound. Hetfield's low voice at 4:15 just reminds me of the Load times. Incredible care of his vocals.
This song along with some others recently released is an immediate step about 25 Metalliyears into the past, possibly even further back. Sounds amazing. I'm sold on it.
@bradyboss3 I can tell you're new to Metallica, It's literally already big. Do you not remember the And Justice For All... days? Have you ever been to a concert.
This a good track and I can hear the bass guitar lines 👌Robert is jamming.. that is what makes the black album sound great jason newsted has a lot of bass guitar space in the mix and his bass guitar lines are very popular and heard ...
Today would definitely be the day for Metallica to drop a song! Today would have been my friend's 24th birthday and we both loved Metallica! Thank you guys!
This album sounds like Metallica finally gelled as a group again, and have brought their 80's roots everyone loves (probably what Trujillo looked up to) and showed that they evolved into that, "Black Album" sound while also being able to jam hard. The last couple of albums felt hard and exploratory. This feels solid and meaningful. I miss feeling like I wanted to learn a riff from the song just because it rocked so much, but I have listened to two songs, and I want to learn two new riffs. Just amazing and excellence. Welcome back Metallica. I just wonder if I will be able to go to concerts, get hit with picks, beer and drumsticks amidst that cool fog of weed that erupted over the mosh put. I remember the Darien Lake, NY concert that had Suicidal Tendencies, Danzig and then finally Metallica. We broke down the security to get up front. It was epic. These songs remind me of those times.
Adding this awesome song to my running playlist, thank you metallica for give me the encourage and bravery to become a healthier person, greetings from México
Música é uma forma de expressão mundial. Gêneros diversos. Respeito é essencialmente importante. Para quem curte, respeita e entende rock, eles são fantástico, competentes, e eternamente clássicos (o que é muito bom).
I'm 19, only been a fan since 2021. The fact that I get to witness new Metallica as it comes out even though they're 40 years into their career is amazing. And it's great quality, too. I'm all for it!
@SPURZO - The Spiral Space Wolf no lol, I heard some of their popular songs (mainly Sandman) from playlists and went from there. I have watched ST but that was a while after I discovered Metallica
I agree! We need to speak, or even shout out, sometimes what is inside us. We must not deny the thoughts that dangerously entangle our mind. We need to talk about it. How good that you are paying attention to this problem! Thank you! ❤
This is... I feel that this...... Thank you Metallica . Loss for words this is power delivering a message that needs to be heard. Thank you. Oh yeah and it frickin rocks! Bonus!
As a grieving mother whose son ended his life at age 36-this hit me right in the feels and I was almost afraid to listen to it. Thank you for speaking out with this wonderful song.
Thank you to everyone who has expressed condolences-it means a lot to me. In a world where it seems like no one cares about anyone-my fellow music fans always come through to prove me wrong. Peace to all!
My best friend died six months ago by suicide. I'm still broken. I would like thank you, Metallica, for talk about this and leaving the message: You are not alone.
This is the best and most passionate and organic Metallica has sounded since a long time ago. The groove, the amazing vocals, battering drums, bluesy solos, tight bass, the fire is once again real and genuine, the boys are back.
@Ron Douglasit’s cheaper than the last tour though if you think about it. Almost $400 for GA floor tickets on the last tour and it was just Metallica and another younger metal band like a7x or volbeat. And on the second leg it was just Jim Bruer being a hype man. At least on this one you’re getting 2 unique metallica sets (supposedly), a Pantera tribute that’s bringing houses down, and I don’t really care about 5 fingers and a donkey punch, but Wolfgang Van Halen is pretty cool.
Atleast they are making something that’s kinda decent if they are going to be charging 400 dollars a ticket to see them tour with fake pantera and 5 finger death punch...
I miss when Metallica would have parts of the song that slowed down for a moment before kicking it back into high gear, for contrast to make the heavy parts feel even heavier. That was a technique taught to Lars and James by the musical scholar Cliff Burton (R.I.P.)

Metallica is one of the few bands that write a song and you can have a flashback to their earlier albums. This has a mix of their last album, Load and Reload. It's solid. I'm so fortunate to have their music in my life for so long.
Music has a power and this is a powerful band. An incredible stretch of evolution and growth through decades and I've been lucky enough to see and hear it from early on. As a fan, I watched Metallica grow up and fine tune. James in particular, and with the support of his band mates, have really made change across the globe. Metallica knows the voice they carry and have opened the door to humanity. This side of the band and their foundation is what will put them over the top to one day receive the Kennedy Award Honor. I've been listening since Ride the Lightning and still, the hairs on my arms stand when I hear a new track. The heart beats a little faster, the goosebumps... long live to the greatest live band to ever grace the stage.
My dad took his life in ‘09 after many years of health problems… always fighting, working hard, and not making a fuss about anything. He was my hero, and the day we lost him, I found him in the place he found the most peace - finally at rest. He has missed out on much of my life and three beautiful grandchildren since then. Rock music always brought us together, and I appreciate the meaning behind this new tune. I like to picture Dad rocking out in heaven, and I believe one day I’ll be rocking with him again… 🤘🏻
It's good when bands such as Metallica speak out about issues such as suicide and addiction. As a recovering addict and alcoholic with 21 months clean and sober and a suicide survivor I can definitely relate.
Metallica has never been shy to talk about suicide and i actually almost cried listening to this. It's important that we talk it out and seek help. Rock on
@Kimon Matara If we go into recommendations, your comment is pretty lame, like who cares about genre or type of music. If something makes people feel emotions, then it does. Learn empathy.
