      The song is about James's mother dying because her religious beliefs prevented her receiving cancer treatment - so the reference is very deep and has many levels. A very clever way to describe the situation in one sentence!

      It’s very good music, just like Load and beyond has some great music, but it’s not anything like the first three. A great many of us truly long for more music like they started out with. Other bands’ music just can’t compare, and so we resent that they left us empty.

      To me it was the anticipation of something heavier than Justice. Then they released the Black album and for all it's greatness there's not a single song on it that's heavier than AJFA. It was a major shock to the system for me.

      I was crossing the country by any means with just a backpack of clothes. No money, no help from family of friends, no one really even knew where I was (I was constantly moving/working in different states) when I heard "Wherever I May Roam" for the first time and it hit me like a fucking bomb, I was LIVING that very song. This album will always be on my playlist.

      That album means a lot of different things to different people. That’s the cool thing bout music, everyone hears something different in each song/album/era.
      Lucky for us, they don’t make music to satisfy any one crowd of fan. They make music for themselves, that they feel. Love it or hate it, at least they put it out there. Not a lot of people can say the same.

    I'd put this in the deep cuts of TBA tracks. I felt one way about it originally based on what I knew about them at the time, but after hearing about his mom's death and her religious affiliation and what that affiliation believed the song does take on another vibe all together. Its got to be a tough call and tough to deal with mentally and emotionally when an event like that comes in to play.

    Nice to see people finding this great music in 2020. Crazy that I was 17 when my friend and I went to the midnight release party at a local record store when this great album dropped 29 years ago. Holyshit I can't believe time has gone so fast. I was a teenager smoking weed and drinking beers listening to the album of my high school years. Megadeth Rust in Peace and Countdown to extinction was just as popular with my friends and I. One of my favorites from this era was Slayers seasons in the abyss. Such a great time for me as a metalhead and a teenager.

If you'd like a personal idea to how James felt about his mother, then I would make the song "Mama Said" your next reaction. I'd love to hear your insight.

  • @Mason.Ulick60

    The song is about James Hetfield's (rhythm guitar/singer) mothers religion. She was a Christian Scientist and raised her kids such. The religion was practiced of the deception that God would heal you, they didn't believe in any type of modern medicine. "Healing hand, held back by the deepened nail" is james talking about modern medicine could have heaked his mother who was dying of cancer, but her religion prohibited her from modern medicine. James' perception of the song is he's talking about a fales God, the God that his mom believes in so to speak. The advancement of modern medicine is actually a blessing from God that's what orthodox Christians believe aswell as James. He felt that his mom practiced a false religion and God.

Now all these spiritual healing people and those saying God will heal me, did y'all ever think maybe God is why we have all these ways to help and heal ourselves ? Maybe it's God sending us the ability to help ourselves , think about all we have discovered in the last 100 or so years. Food for thought .........

    Some say that the line "the healing hand held back by the deepend nail" is a reference to Jesus on the cross but to me its more likely that James Hetfield was talking about the doctors healing hand held back by the nail that was his mother's refusal to recieve medical care for cancer for religious reasons and ultimately losing her life because of that decision.

    Dude? For real? "The healing hand held back by the deepened nail"? You didn't understand who that was referring to?
    Moreover, Hetfield wrote this song because when he was a kid his parents had him (and themselves) in some cult that called themselves "Christian". Their particular brand of "Christianity" would not allow for medical treatment. His mother had cancer and, for their prayers, she died. God's hand of healing was "held back" as it were, by being nailed to the cross.
    It's no mystery. James Hetfield has explained the meaning of the song many times.
