 A new video interview with Metallica's James Hetfield and Roberty Trujillo recently took part in a new video interview which can be seen below.
In the clip, the pair talk about hte writting process for the bands new album Death Magnetic that will be released worldwide on September 12th.
In other news, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich says he still can't understand why no
other metal band has overtaken the group's popularity reports GigWise.
The group, who have been together for over twenty years, have sold over 100 million albums worldwide since they formed.
Speaking to the Guardian, Ulrich said: "I was thinking the other day
about how everyone expects us to continue to release albums that define
the genre, to 'save' metal. And that's a lot of fucking pressure,
really.
“Why hasn't anyone dethroned us yet? We support all the great new metal
bands, take them under our wing, but people still want us to carry the
whole genre on our backs."
Talking during the band's appearance at last month's Reading and Leeds
festivals, Ulrich also admitted that he found it hard to live up to the
band's hedonistic past.
"I'm 44 years old, I've got three kids, I flew in a helicopter on Friday,” he said.
“It's a little difficult to revisit the vibe of 20 years ago when
you're living in a two-bedroom suite at Claridge's. I live a very
different life to how I lived then."
