Weird metal 'hum' when driving

Ok the sound is hard to describe...sounds like metal rotating against metal. Not a screech, but a metallic hum.

It ONLY happens when I'm launching harder than normal. Ie, a little more than easing off. My clutch doesn't slip or anything, but definitely sounds like the flywheel/ clutch.

No other issues but the hum...
