Metallica have released a Tim Saccenti directed music video for their brand new track, "Screaming Suicide", which is the second single from their forthcoming album, "72 Seasons".

Frontman James Hetfield had this to say about the track, "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."

"72 Seasons" will be hitting stores on April 14th and was produced by Greg Fidelman with Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich. Over 77 minutes long, the 12-track record will be released in various formats including a 2LP 140g black vinyl and limited edition variants, CD and digital.

Today also marks the on-sale of single day tickets to all shows on Metallica's M72 world tour. See the dates and watch the new video below:
