Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler reveals he used to be a cutter in a new interview with Classic Rock. He said of that:
“I used to be a cutter. I’d cut my arms, stick pins in my fingers, that kind of thing. I used to get really depressed and it was the only thing that could bring me out from it. If Sabbath hadn’t made it, I’d have been long dead. I’d have killed myself.”
His troubles with self-harm later went on to inspire the band’s iconic single “Paranoid“.
