Metallica's official music video for “Screaming Suicide,” from the album “72 Seasons” available April 14th, 2023.“‘Screaming Suicide’ addresses the taboo word of suicide. 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.”Directed by Tim SaccentiFilmed in Los Angeles, CA, on November 7, 2022Video Premiere Date: January 19, 2022LYRICSWelcome to this lifeBorn into the fightHere to claim your dreamLook you in the eyePatch the broken skyCraving dopamineThen my voice appearsTeaching you of fearsAre you good enough?You don’t recognizeHead is full of liesYou should just give up Listen well, better listen wellListen well, better listen well Don’t ever speak my nameRemember you’re to blameKeep me insideKeep me insideMy name is suicide Curse another daySpirit locked awayPunish and depriveHate to be awakeLiving a mistakeMore dead than aliveThen a voice appearsWhisper in your ears“You are good enough”Throwing down a ropeA lifeline of hopeNever give you up Listen well, better listen wellListen well, better listen well Don’t ever speak my nameRemember you’re to blameKeep me insideKeep me insideMy name is suicideTerrified in sleepless nightsCaught in spotlight dead to rightsIsolate and fight your mindTelling you you’re left behindMy lying voice insideKeeps drinking cyanideAnd no more can you runInto the sunTerrified, sleepless nightsCaught in spotlight dead to rightsIsolate and fight your mindTelling you you’re left behindAnd now you speak my nameYou’ve given back the blameKeep me deep insideDon’t you keep me insideScreaming suicideNow that I’m exposed insideShined a light on cyanideI’m no longer needed hereNow you've faced your biggest fearWritten by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich & Robert TrujilloCREDITSDirector: Tim SaccentiProducer: Daniel LachmanExecutive Producer: Jennifer HeathProd Company: Radical MediaCreative Direction: Setta StudiosDP: Joshua Zucker-PludaProduction Designer: Kurt GefkeGaffer: Drew ValentiKey Grip: Charles LenzSPFX: Kevin WatsonEditor: Matt PoseyEditorial: PS260Colorist: Tom PooleColor: Company 3Co3 Producer: Shannen Troup, Nick KrasnicDigital Artwork: Chris DammeyerVFX: Mark SzumskiVFX Company: Hey Beautiful Jerk Executive Producer: Gina NiespodzianiVisuals Curator: Dina ChangSound Designer: Nicole PettigrewPS260 Executive Producer: Raná MartinProduction Supervisor: Kelsie Drinkwater BuchananAssistant Director: Michael EstrellaSteadicam: Chris Loh1st AC: Ethan McDonald2nd AC: Alan CertezaDIT: James PetersmeyerBB Electric: Arin WhitlockElectric: Tom PeñaElectric: Chris WaldorfElectric: Darrel DitriLighting Console Programmer: Zane BlanchardBB Grip: Andy WilsonGrip: Otis MannickGrip: Matt KingGrip: Derick HolubProjectionist: Ryan Griffin/Projected VisionsVTR/Playback: Robert BuckholzLeadman: Dylan RobieSet Dresser: Kenny DavisSet Dresser: Sean BuckleyHair & Makeup: Lily BerenStylist: Keith Wager Medic: Matt PayneCCO: Chris HowardCovid Coord: Danielle Rivera2nd AD: Janet MarinProduction Coordinator: Adam SunProduction Assistant: Joe BlanaProduction Assistant: Xavier MustiProduction Assistant: Alicia EchevarriaProduction Assistant: Oscar AmayaProduction Assistant: Jackson Linn
