Rolling Stone: Metallica Unleash Taboo-Shattering New Song Screaming Suicide
Metallica has offered up another glimpse at their 72 Seasons with “Screaming Suicide,” the second single off the heavy metal legends’ upcoming LP.
“Screaming Suicide” follows the first single, “Lux Æterna,” from 72 Seasons, due out April 14. “72 seasons — the first 18 years of our lives that form our true or false selves,” Hetfield previously said of the album title. “The concept that we were told ‘who we are’ by our parents. A possible pigeonholing around what kind of personality we are. I think the most interesting part of this is the continued study of those core beliefs and how it affects our perception of the world today. Much of our adult experience is a reenactment or reaction to these childhood experiences. Prisoners of childhood or breaking free of those bondages we carry.”
