Metallica Screaming Suicide
Hey Rockers,
I want to start off saying that when I read the lyrics to this song I loved to see how the message that comes across deals with the importance of fighting off those negative voices that can scream inside your head. After reading about this, and even seeing James Hetfield interviews, it further supported my positive support of this debut song of the Metallica lux æterna album. Safe to say my Metallica Screaming Suicide reaction was a good one!
In this guitar tutorial, I’ll break how to play the intro to this some, both the rhythm and lead guitar sections. Thanks for watching this Metallica screaming suicide guitar lesson video!
