LYRICS

Anticipation
In domination
A sea of hearts beat as one, unified
Magnification
All generations
Approaching thunder awaiting the light

Full speed or nothing
Full speed or nothing

Lux Æterna
Lux Æterna

Exhilaration
Frenzied sensation
Kindred alliance connected inside
Commiseration
Sonic salvation
Cast out the demons that strangle your life

Full speed or nothing
Full speed or nothing

Lux Æterna
Lux Æterna

Lux Æterna

Emancipation
Kill isolation
Never alone for the feelings alike
Amplification
Lightning the nation
Never alive more
Than right here tonight

Full speed or nothing
Full speed or nothing

Lux Æterna
Lux Æterna

Light it

    The fact that they just dropped this out of nowhere makes it that much sweeter
  • A new metallica song on my birthday? This must be heaven.
  • @rockyalls4386
    This is definitely a concert song, it just has that sound!
  • @Pop40577
    Happy 1 year to this baby! I still remember waking up in confusion to this song, not knowing what was going on, only to find out the boys cooked up another album. Long live Metallica! 💛🖤
  • I love the way they do this stuff. No announcement, no hyping, no nothing. Just dropping the song and going on. Long live Metallica!
  • @irritable703
    This is the best the vocals have been mixed in a long time. This sounds great. Hats off to the producer.
  • @jenniferhull6578
    My kid is 9 years old, and this all she listens to we said we would take her, to a Metallica concert, before she will not be able to❤
  • I had a very bad day today. This brought a smile to my face. Thank you, Metallica.
  • I was having a horrible Monday morning, and then this hit. It may not be eternal light, but it certainly brightened my day.
  • @davidlyman694
    I lost my father on Good Friday. This song has helped me though all of the anguish. Thank you.
  • @JackKastor
    Sound-wise, they've totally aged backwards here and I think that's mighty cool! 🎉
  • White TAMA kit✅ Flying V✅ Old school-ish thrash vibe✅ Double bass✅ Killer riff✅ Dammm… this sh*t is fire 🔥🤘🏻🔥 Thank you METALLICA!
  • @KaneAndMarcus
    James' voice still in prime. metallica never gets old.
  • @user-qs2kc1uw7x
    James vocals are fucking amazing here. This is by far his best singing I’ve ever heard
  • @lexluth89
    I may prefer most of their older songs, but there’s something special about this song, and I seen them perform this one live at MetLife this past Sunday and they did not disappoint performing this one, this song kicks ass!
  • The fact that these guys are in their 60's and still kicking ass is absolutely amazing!!
  • @Max-md2ff
    I love the fact that Lars got the old drums back, I love them.
  • @camsnow9822
    It needs to be said. This is the best thing lars ever did on drums. He f***ing nailed it. It feels brutal and fits the song so well.
  • @frz_akbar
    they really transferred the energy through this music
