"King Nothing" is a song by American heavy metal band Metallica from their 1996 album Load, released on January 7, 1997.

It included a live version of the song "Ain't My Bitch", which is also on the album Load.

"King Nothing" appeared as background music in the ninth episode of the second season of The Sopranos, "From Where to Eternity", in a scene in which Tony Soprano is speaking with Paulie Gualtieri in the Bada Bing strip club.

In the music video, "King Nothing" is seen wandering around a snowy wasteland, throwing away his crown, and then putting another one on.

The music video, directed by Matt Mahurin, was filmed in Park City, Utah, in December 1996.
