Reporting from Rasputin in Mountain View, Laurence Scott lets us know Metallica still has “old-school analog values” and “being a hardcore fan never goes out of style.” That’s why they showed up to sign autographs and talk about the importance of record stores as social hubs during this past weekend’s Record Store Day. Kirk’s hair has seen better days, but dude still has a baby face and youthful exuberance. Same goes for James Hetfield, though it’s his facial hair that’s seen better days, etc. Lars? Lars doesn’t get to talk on camera because he’s the drummer. Not that that usually stops him.
See you guys at Bonnaroo.

i love this shit!
Like Trent Reznor Metallica have lost that angry depressing fire that made their music good. But pre-Metallica (the black album) they were the bag of shit set to flame on your parents front porch.
I thought that was Big Black.
did they sue any of their fans ?
did they sue any of their fans ?
“man we weren’t TEXTIN each other or any of that…”
these guys sound like Grumpy Old Men the Band.
To quote grandpa simpson: “I used to be with it, then they changed what it was. Now what it is is strange and scary to me.”
I lol’d at how they’re desperately trying to pioneer all this “Maaaan….this modern music scene is all wrooonng…whatever happened to hanging out at record stores and buying actual cds? Why are we all on the internet now, doooood?”
Maybe cause no one wants to get ripped off an extortionate amount of money for a shitty band like Metallica who spew out shitty albums like St Anger, when we can just download it at home, realise how bad it is, and delete it without ever funding their piss-poor efforts.
they sound as though they are afraid to adapt to the rest of the world; T.S.
Holy freaking LOL at James’ “MAN WE WEREN’T TEXTING” quote.
They love record stores but hate their fans!
I was waiting for Lars to drop his favorite word: “TOE-tuh-lee”
Wow, two things that no one cares about anymore. Metallica & Record Stores. I can live without both.
cool, I was just in there a few of hours a go, had no Idea metalica had been…
do any of you indie kids even listen to metallica? if not, then why the hell are you so concerned with what they say and do? you’re all so fucking jaded and cynical its pathetic.
