I like how the vocals aren't really messed with by the studio in this album, it adds a raw aggressiveness and anger, which fits appropriately

This band saved my life.

I was one of the prisioners that was in the moment when they play that song, and from that day I became a Metallica fan, thanks James, Lars, Robert and Kirk I will never forget that sepecial moment

The drums are insanely loud in this song :D I love it

I dunno why, but I love how messy it sounds. Especially at 0:44!

The thing I find funny and baffling, is that Metalica fans have been asking for them to put something more hardcore, like their very old stuff out for a long time. Then when Metalica does with this song and album, alot of people hate on it. I personally love this song. The lyrics especially, because I have felt the way he did in the lyrics of that song. It hit home with me. I like the chaotic sound. It captures the moment of a rage. That everyone has felt in life. That moment when your so angry with everything that you want to smash someone or something. Kinda like Slipknots 1st album that made them famous. It was erie, it was chaotic, it was pain, it was suffering, it was sadness, it was mysery and everyone has felt all these things. Basically it comes down to taste and what your life has been like, as to what you perfer and what hits home with you. I will agree some of it sounds sloppy. Maybe thats the way they intended it, cause life is'nt always a bowl of cherries. Just my opinion. You know what they say about opinions lol.

In all honesty, I fucking love the snare on this album, it gives the music such a damn unique sound. I just can't imagine this song without the snare sounding the way it does. It just adds an awesome layer to the heaviness.

This album isn't about pretty things, it's about stress, depression, shit like that. The clanking that so many found annoying or lame, that noise fits the theme, that pounding headache called life, and I like it. People complained also about the lack of solos, but these songs aren't your normal romantic songs about some higher or hidden truth. These are statements, shouting their message! Clear and simple, these songs relfect that notion as well. This album states "we're fucking pissed, so fuck you all", and I just love it, this is true post-modern high art disguised as a part of popular culture. Most people didn't get it, like they also don't get the usual modern artsy shit. No suprises there. :D

I LOVE Jamses voice when he sings "st anger round my neck"!!!😍😍

This album saved me throughout the highschool years. when i was at a rock bottom

just listen to James' vocals........i obsessed with this song!!!!!

I dont care what people say, i was 11 when this album came out and i loved it and i still do. i have since then discovered more music , also by metallica and i am glad that this was part of it.. I will never give an ear to those elitist posers who look down on you for liking this.

people who say st anger sucks pretty much never listened to it it deals with anger and people having a bad time in their lives

Im 40 and this is the first Metallica song I’ve paid attention to and it’s currently my favorite song! Kinda ashamed tbh (I’m a grunge fan, not really metal but this is gold!)

I like the different sound of this album. The drum sounds raw and aggressive and vocals by James on this song are cool, it's not like their first pure thrash metal albums but damn really catchy. If this album had solos it would have been even better. I like the part with the drum and then James shout "Set it free!!!!!"

Just imagine how this would sound if it had AJFA or Hardwired sounding drums, more solos, and/or if the production was more like Ride the Lightning, this album (or at least this song and a few others i.e. Frantic, Some Kind of Monster, Unnamed Feeling and Sweet Amber) would be brilliant!

The snare sounds badass. I am ready for your rage.

Sorry to not go with the flock but this is one of metallica's best songs. I remember i first heard this in 2003 i was fuck yeah.

This sounds like they're trying to go back to their roots. However, the drums have a touch to them I like. Which, honestly I love the snare. lol

These guys continue to save my life. I'm able to Express myself through their music. Thanks guys for connecting to my broken mind.

i fuking love how angry they were in this album

Can never get tired of this I love Metallica! ❤️ one of the best bands.

This song perfectly describes the Potter boy in his fifth year.

Probably my favorite ,positively motivational song ever. Pure heart pounding raw energy Put to music. Metallica at best.(for me). Garage days, revisited always

I can definitely relate to this song. I've had a problem with my anger since I was a kid and I can now explain it.

I really like the song, is fast paced and angry, that was they where looking for. Also, i like the vocals in the chorus.

No one can touch Lars' drumming in this song. Unreal.

Actually this is a fucking good song \m/

Love the drums!!!

My song to get me hype before my podcast! Hell yeah!!!

This song perfectly sums up the decade it came out in. It was released nearly 2 years after 9/11 and people had started really hating Bush.

In my opinion I love this song because it shows the anger in me and everyone in life because I really related to this song and it really hit me that everyone in this world feels the same way.

These drums are so fucking good.

So weird how this song has been out for almost 20 years and Im just now relating to it. The day has come

Give in to your anger.... Let the heat flow through you....

I like this album. It's pure aggression. It comes from the gut, not the heart. I can relate to this as I'm feeling sort of stale lately.

st anger is amazing!!!! the whole album is great i love it !!!!

Mesmerising drumming

I noticed a comment, Metallica, RESPECT HANDS DONE. Music SAVES LIVES! Fills a space from floor to ceiling, feel it,hear it, it cant be seen.

I don't understand why people hate this album. It's fast (like "Kill 'Em All"), heavy (like "Master Of Puppets"), and dark (like "And Justice For All...").

Was at the lowest point in my life and this album helped me get back up 🤘🤘🤘 I'll be honest i didnt like the album at first but i listened to it a bunch of times and i like alot

lmfao. Everyone hates this album but it's pretty cool in my opinion, music is music, doesn't matter if you don't like it, just hold your piece. I'd say that people hat this because alot of the drumming doesn't appeal to the ear lol.

Definitely one of their heaviest songs. It's weird how people get offended if something is not the same as it always was. I think the drums sound good and fit into the music. If you don't like it, don't listen.

I think people don't like this album because its like modern metal like godsmack.

Fuck it all and no regrets....

This song the soundtrack of my life right now.

Personally I really don't like Metallica, but I can't see why everyone hates that snare sound. I reckon it sounds great.

Metallica purists hate this song, but I think it fuckin' rocks. Love workin' out to it.

this has always been one of my favorite Metallica songs, probably the best if you're trying to get hyped up for something. :)

like the snare guys

People need to understand that entities like literature, arts, music sometimes grows on you. It takes time to hit you. The essence, context, purity. If you heard this from some other band than Metallica it would be more effective for hardcore Metallica fans. Just pure music from the heart.

Workout song!!! IRON TASTES GOOODDDD

I don't care what anyone says. This album as much if not more raw emotion than any other album Metallica ever made. The lyrics in this album speak out to me more than most Metallica albums. 'Medallion noose, I hang myself. St. Anger round my neck.' Amazing! What makes them even more respectable as a band is that most Metallica fans didn't like this album so they reverted back to a more familiar sound FOR the fans. That's dedication to the fans right there.

First Metallica song i liked for one reason....and that is because i find it difficult to control my anger...and this song spoke to me so to speak.....

that snare fits, then it doesn't fit. wierd...

I LOVE THIS SONG

Every album metallica has released will always split opinion.. especially after the first five. Personally i think this was one of there best, james lyrics were on point. Ive been a huge fan since 89🎸🤘🤘.

FUCK IT ALL AND FUCKIN NO REGRETS, I HIT THE LIGHTS ON THESE DARK SETS, MILITARY. INTELLIGENCE. TWO WORDS COMBINED, THAT CANT MAKE SENSE.......fuck...wrong song......aaaaakwaaard

Love this album simply cause it's different. Plus it seems like they used a trash can instead of drums lol

I'm not a fan of the snare, mostly cause it's a garbage can, but I actually can't listen to the song without it. it's, odd.

I like the anger in it, only thing that lets it down I feel is a few lyrics like "madly in anger with you, I want my anger to be healthy etc" other than that it is raw, aggressive and badass everything a rock song should be!

St anger never gets respect

say what you want that chorus is gold

I like this song.

Literally the only one I've heard from this album. Don't care what anyone says this song is fire

Agreed. The snare is a big part of this whole album.

i personally love the snare. in honesty i really don't like metallica, but the snare drew me to this song and now i love it

awesome!!!! love it soooo much..

I personally love the St. Anger album, it's unique in a genious way! I was even lucky enough to hear st anger live this year in Horsens :)

Love it!

This sounds like something System of a Down made. If they made it, it would be their best song

The Red Lantern Corps Theme Song

All these years, and still enough energy to power the national grid!

Metallica still rock the most.

‘Love it

Such an underrated song

The most underrated Metallica album

Sounds like Metallica feat. Nirvana and Linkin Park

Set it freeahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summerslam 2003

wwe summerslam 2003

beautiful

Saint Anger 'round my neck (2x) He never gets respect, Saint anger 'roun my neck

>Wonders for years how Lars got that metallic snare sound on this album; "was it some fancy production trick? Or a special drum he got?" >Gets a drumkit for Christmas one year >Finds the snare drum has a switch/strainer that holds the snares to the drum; simply disabling that produces the "metallic" tom-tom sound "oh"

Best album ever

Perfect))

St. Anger may not be a masterpiece album to some stuck-up metal reviewers, but St. Anger saved Metallica and I’m glad it was made. Even if I didn’t love this songs on this album, I’d love the album for how it brought Metallica back from the brink. Of course they still had messed up shit to deal with after the album was dropped, but it pushed them back onto the road to recovering the band from disaster. Jason quit (due to teasing-gone-way-too-Far by James and Lars) James goes into rehab and the whole band is dealing with an emotional roller coaster as they lost an amazing bassist and dealing with James attempts to control every little thing in the band. I’m glad they got through the stuff and can keep touring and making music.

I gotta say, I agree the recording is awful, BUT I still love this song like crazy!

unreal song

0:34 - 0:44 = Best part!

Everyone should stop fighting with each other on the comments and just ENJOY!

The best workout song in the world

The snare fuckin grew on me and i love it !!

This reminds me of this Metal-ish wave of music during the 2003-2007.

0:00 - 0:56 the best bit of this song. and the repeating sections.

This song took me a couple listens to like it but now I can’t get it out of my head

This is a really cool song.

Well I actually like this album. It's raw and gritty.

I headbanged so hard at this xD
