    The angriest song on a very angry album. This was the first album released right after their most loved bassist Cliff Burton was killed in a tour bus crash. This album is all the raw emotion of them trying to deal with his loss. James left all his emotions on the table with this album. It's my favorite album of theirs. Every song on this album is a straight up smasher. Great reaction!

      It's funny how we all have specific memories of moments like this. I was on a date with a girl at the mall in summer of 1992(I know, so romantic - I was 12, it was what we did), and we went to a music store in the mall. I bought two tapes with the money my mom had given me(don't worry - we ate and had a good time otherwise). I bought Nevermind by Nirvana and The Black Album. Absolutely changed my music life from there. Good times.

    I can somewhat relate to the lyrics. My mother was amazing, the best mother you could ever ask for. My biological father on the other hand, was an alcoholic abuser that I had to live with for the first 8 years of my life. My mom got away from him and ended up marrying a man who was truly a father to me until the day he passed. All 3 are gone now, all died within a 3 year span, which wasn’t easy to deal with. However, the scars and pain from those first 8 years have never left me, and never will. Obviously I can’t remember everything, but I was old enough by the end to remember enough, and my mom filled in the rest.

    When I was a teenager this song was my go-to pissed off cathartic release track.
    I don’t relate to it as much now, as I’m older and I have young kids of my own and have realised how stressful parenting and life in general can be.
    These days I acknowledge that even though my parents made mistakes along the way, they tried as well as they knew how to.

    This community is always here for you. Please never forget that. Ask for help if you need it and listen to the music that makes you feel what you need to feel so you can get it out. This song is about the very beginning of healing. Letting the anger out is the 2nd stage of grief after denial. Allowing the anger out just allows you to grieve.

    I was 20 years old when 'Justice...' came out and this song, for many reasons, really connected with my life and the way my parents intended to direct it.
    You know, I'm an old dad of four, now, but it inspired me, throughout my grownup life, not to repeat the same mistakes my parents did.
    But above all, I'm glad to see that my favorite band still finds its way to the heart of young people.
    Be well and be happy!

    47 year old Gen-X here. You have no idea how common that toxic households were back then. They we always hidden from view, even thought you could tell who the kids were who lived in them. I was one of them and still suffer from the experience. I personally remember being told that psychiatrists and psychologists will damage your mind so don't subject your mind to them and it took 30 years before I decided that was utter bullshit. Unfortunately, both of my parents are passed now so I don't get the luxury of informing them of the damage they did, intentional or not.
    James wasn't alone, he was just lucky enough to voice it for the rest of us who lived a comparable life.

Im 43 years old and still this song connects with me in a deep spiritual way. Love and peace! All the way from sunny South Africa!

    That "Dear mother, dear father" always gets you going... This is James just venting out his frustrations about his parents not being there... It is just sad that James went on to repeat this behavior before he realized what he was doing and it is a large reason why he has been in rehab a couple of times... He just didn't have an example on how you should be as a parent with all the chaos and strict religious upbringing he got for the time he got it. It wasn't that long after his mom passed that they started Metallica. I think he was like 15-16 when his mom died and at 17 they were riding the van cross country to record Kill Em All. James has talked extensively on how therapeutic the music has been in his life and you can see and feel it on the albums over the years. It is just pure emotion from start to finish and this release valve has kept him from doing "other things"... That would have most likely ended up with him being locked up.
    But enough of that... This song is just crazy good!

    "Children are seen but are not heard" is actually a variation of "do not speak until spoken to" - another "parental gem" - and has less to do with children input on any family violence or not, but more about simple rigid obedience, hence "do as I say, not as I do"... holy crap, I didn't realize how many parental cliches there actually are in the lyrics, lol.
    All that's missing is "Quit crying or I'll give you something to cry about", lol.

    “Children are seen but are not heard - tear out everything inspired” - I grew up with this and it hit home, it was my anthem - but not in the way you interpreted it. Just means when parents don’t respect kids, and ignore any sense of creativity. My parents ignored my love for music and pushed the whole school, then college, then work till you die ideals.
    Basically the whole song to me is about overbearing parents who shelter their kids so badly they’re not prepared for the real world and are screwed when they finally face life. This happened 100% to me and why I related.

    James Hetfield was raised by conservative Christian science believers in small-town California... his family was abusive and because of their beliefs, James was not allowed to see doctors when he was sick or given access to medicine. That got him ostracized as a kid in school...
    Then, his father disappeared without a word... he and his sister fought constantly and then his mom died refusing cancer treatments while he was a teenager... He stayed w/ his older brother until he was 18... His experience seeing the world outside of his family was traumatic to say the least. It drove him to abuse alcohol early in life... His fear of abandonment (compounded by the death of Metallica bassist Cliff Burton in 1986) also made him abusive & controlling towards band members in Metallica over the years. His alcohol and substance abuse even recently got him in rehab and filed for divorce.
    Sadly, some damage from childhood can never be undone...
    Yes, please... review the 'And justice for all' album honestly... 🤘🤘

    I've been a Metallica fan since I was 15 and Kill em all came out! What a journey, and now 72 seasons album has been on repeat since Friday morning.

    unpopular opinion this is my favorite ALBUM from Metallica. Cliff created their best riffs and songs but... This album was a lot of pain in the making. IMHO.
    Either way great song.

    Hopefully the song will be as cathartic for you as it was for James (and so many others who are touched by this music).

    Everyone is just going off on their instruments and showing their raw talent. I think Lars may actually be "riding the drums" here. Pure outlet of angst and emotion.

    Great reaction! Watching your face melt was interesting. I can just think that was my same reaction back in 1988, when I was 13 with the cassette liner in hand and the Walkman on fire!
