  • kirk is right in this case, however bob has a natural bias against kirk, always has. he just doesnt think he's that great... just watch the year and a half video

  • the reason this album suck is that faggot therapist

  • Kirk is the boss.

  • band drama ..I know about that shit

  • press 3 for sassy kirk

  • what killed Metallica?? new age music did making there music new age >>>> ow and kirk sounds like a faggot pfffffffff fuck u Metallica and bring back jason!!! that was your downfall!!

  • following trends is not something a band with personallity like Metallica should have done

  • I hate metallica but i like kirk

  • They could go back and rearrange some things, take some shit out, rerecord drums, add solos and st anger could be a superb album.

  • See what did lars make of metallica.....i bet it would have been his + james idea that lets play with lou reed.....i love metallica but lars & james don't give kirk enough space.....come on guys he is playing with you for more than 25 years.....and he is the best soloist out there( i give the credit of rest of the composition of both them)....hats off to kirk for showing so much patience with both of them

  • Bob Rock tried to pull the cock outta my shorts once. He is such a fag.

  • Comment removed

  • Lars Ulrich needs to learn how to play his own instrument before telling people how they should play theirs...

  • bob rock sucks

  • @risank09 there wouldnt be black album without him

  • Kirk was right.

  • I'm shocked Lars decided to share his opinion.

  • I find it funny that James is sittin there as if nothing's happening.

  • too fucking serious. just play wut feels rite. its ok to use theory but not 100% of the time. each scale doesnt have to play with ea. chord on time. thats bullshit.

  • solos are cool!

  • should have kept Mustaine

  • Lars is such a hypocrite. he says that he hated the glam rock seen but then he says no solos which basically made metallica fit into the new seen of other bands.

    Dammit lars! let kirk play his solos.

  • kirk is a push over.

  • some people hates Lars, some James... but i think no one hates Kirk

    he is such a cuttie for a rockstar :D

    metallica forever \m/

  • Lars should shut the fuck up more often.

  • @zwareshag you should GO AND DIE IN A HOLE more often...

  • @WikiHeba96 trolol

  • @zwareshag what ?

  • Kirk , Kirk, Kirk , Kirk

  • FIRE HIM

  • St Anger needed angry solos. Show the ANGER.

  • St Anger is one of their most honest albums so fuck off haters.. if you want boring solos listen to million other Kirk Wahmett solos

  • @MrCold012 the most stupid comment in the history of the world

  • @Gang1242 you must be some metallica fanboy who thinks he knows everything .. i admire that but dont give a fuck about your opinion

  • He should have told Lars that obsessive drum rolls were even more dated.

  • Kirk is right, st anger fuckin sucked lol

  • Thank you Krik if only they listed to you. YES NO GUITAR SOLOS ARE BULLSHIT. By God...i mean Kirk not playing solos he was being a guitar player of the 2000 stupid drop tuneings and no solos. THANK YOU KIRK FOR YOUR KILLER SOLOS

  • Thumbs up if you hate Bob Pop

  • Also, even though he's always been the sheepish guy, I always thought Kirk should've had more say in Metallica's business. Lars was always about fame and money and James hasn't been the same since he lost his voice and beer. Kirk was always the grounded guy, and I think he was echoing some of Cliff's former influence here.

  • A: Kurk was right.

    B: Fuck bob rock.

  • I don't understand why they let Bob Rock have a say so.

  • KIrk is 100% correct.

  • and then they went with no solos

  • KIRK HAMMETT WANTS SOLOS, THATS HIS JOB. FUCK YOU BOB ROCK

  • @AnamariaOcampo99 metallica sucks with bob rock

  • @MrCtater at what point did i say that metallica didnt suck with bob rock?

  • @AnamariaOcampo99 Kirk hammett is trash, and wouldn't be anywhere without the guidance and hand-holding of bob rock and James. Kirk is LUCKY to have had such a promising career, being carried by great other band members and excellent producing. He's a terrible player, there really is no arguing.

  • @shlokda kirk hammett is a terrible player?! are you kidding me? 

  • @AnamariaOcampo99 If you're not a musician, then I can't really say anything about this comment. However, if you consider yourself a good guitar player, or have any aspirations of being beyond mediocre on the instrument, you are delusional if you think Kirk is a "good" player.

  • @shlokda Dude, guitar players are on average a worse judge of music than non players. They are too influenced by the skill it takes to play something rather than how good the music actually is. That's why you have all these uber shredders that produce music mostly other wanna be shedders listen to. No body else gives a shit. As for Kirk, yeah he ain't all that. Metallica is 90% James and Lars. But still Kirk gets the job done and most fans don’t care that he isn't an uber virtuoso.

  • @shlokda

    He's not only a good player he is a legend. nuff said, i'd jam with him any day.

  • @shlokda Kirk didn't happen to fuck your mother or significant other did he?

  • @AlphaGreeky Oh I'm sorry, die-hard Kirk fan. I didn't mean to upset you.

  • @shlokda I'm not even a die hard Kirk fan. Jump in the Fire outro solo is one of my favourite solos but not sure if it was him or Mustaine who created it. Other than that, he's a solid player.

  • @AnamariaOcampo99 Bob rock helped the band re think to get to their roots by getting ridof solo's then the band have only good song writing and the rhyme they play at. If you want to make a good song you need to strip it down so that all you have are lyrics and a simple chord progression. Then you add extra's. Metalllica weren't doing that and had lost that sense of focusing on things load and reload were badly constructed.

  • @ad1170 it may have been bad constructed but it was a hella of a better album than saint anger

  • Fuck Bob Rock glad he got canned St Anger went down the tubes in FLAMES they have wanted another "Black Album" since the shitty Load/Re-Load albums did not go that well look what they did after Load..Garage Inc covers good ones but still covers, then S&M that was old after the first week Jason leaves takes another year for them to get jaymz back on track for ...St Anger? shoulda took 2 years sorry they lost the edge the "eye of the tiger"

  • @horseboyken

    I gotta say... I liked Load and ReLoad.

  • bob rock is a fuk up period moron

  • Honestly, suing napster is one of the best things lars has done. Im a musician, and id hate to imagine a world where the main form of obtaining music is free. He and every musician who sued napster probably saved the industry.

  • You realize what happened with st anger right? Its "lars's" album. It sucks because hes a terrible drummer, and that album was meant to satisfy HIS ego with that shitty snare, probably because james was absent for a while and couldnt bitchslap him.

  • I can see why they didn't want him to solo.

  • lol i bet kirk wish he didnt leave exodus lol

  • fuckin hell

  • kirk is fucking right.

  • if the song sounds better with a solo then put 1 in if the song is great without a solo then leave it out its all about making that 1 song have the feeling and sound that goes with the lyrics,drums etc

  • Bob was good with Metallica (Black album), Load and Reload, but St.Anger was crap, I still love it but... Yeah. It's good they're going back to their thrash roots instead of hard rock. But James is a great classical influenced guitarist and Kirk is a great blues influenced guitarist, Metallica is great, one of the biggest bands in the world, I don't care if you think someone's better, these guys have worked hard to deserve respect.

  • @MetalHeadJoel1994 And worked hard to lose some respect too. Lars Ulrich and Napster..

  • @JohnACorp782: I support his whole entire fight with Napster, I was dancing with jow when Limewire got shut down, I hate free downloading sites, if you want the music, go buy it.

  • @MetalHeadJoel1994 Sure, you weren't even born when the so called early version of internet, tape trading, was happening. It helped Metallica too. So long story short: You're a hypocrite.

  • @JohnACorp782: How would that make me a hypocrite? I buy all my albums.

  • @MetalHeadJoel1994 Forget it, you just don't get it..

  • @JohnACorp782 Thank you.  These anti-Napster folks just don't see the light...

  • @Evin07 Napster was a mess up anyway. Torrent's better. :D Still, hearing what the new Metallica/Reed-album is, I won't even download it..

  • @Evin07 Respectfully debating the point, compare how much good music came out before file sharing to how much good music has came out post-file sharing. Instead of record companies giving good record deals and promoting a variety of music, like metal which has never had pop-level appeal (even in the 80s), record companies pour all of their money into cheesy mainstream pop acts. Now other genres have to try to fend for themselves and end up floundering in obscurity, or just getting real jobs.

  • bob rock looks so fuckin gay watchin kirk playing

  • dream theatre is a band that demolishes metallica..

    john petrucci is god compared to kirk hambone

  • @Imxaxmac Petrucci plays fast but can't come up with a guitar licks that actually grab you by the balls and make you want to listen.

  • Lars-" We need to try things new just to ruin our reputation even more!"

    Metallica died years ago.

  • whos bob?

  • Dream theatre makes Kirk Hammett look like the pussy he is

  • @Imxaxmac If only they could write good music like Metallica once did.

  • Man I fuckin love metallicas old shit. It went bad after the black album. Death magnetic was a bit of an improvement but it wasn't badass. Oh well.. METALLICA \m/

  • @AndNowYouRot99 Cool story, bro. Tell it again

  • bob rock destroyed the best metal group ever! fuckin' faggot!

  • since metallica start making albums with bob

    they start falling down into crap

  • Even Axl Rose allows solo's.

  • What Kirk said is complete fact!

  • ...........and this is why jason left the band.

  • Bob has a point in that they shouldn't try to shoehorn a solo in.

    Kirk said in an interview that when he tried to add in some solos they "sounded like an afterthought", and in my opinion, the only St. Anger song that sounds good with a solo is Sweet Amber.

  • no fukkin doubt Kirk,about time you forget the budduh stuff and stand firm, if you would have then maybe that album wouldnt have sux ass so bad..that and that childish toy drun sounding overpowering snare drun b/s.because James was outta the picture mostly and Lars gotta run the show and thats what we got, some kinda ramblin b/s of anger managments issues rehab/with Lars the "drummer extrodinare' he flles like he knows everything and this movie clearly shows he know .not a whole hellof alot

  • Another reason why St. Anger sucked.

  • One of the few times that Kirk probably voiced his opinion strongly. He never had the balls to stand up to Lars or James more directly and more often. He was always the 'Yes' man in the band.

  • Totally agree with kirk man....

  • metallica sucked after the black album PERIOD they should have stayed hardcore and not changed to please all the alternitave rockers

  • @ceasormayhem101 Hetfield (at least I think it was Hetfield) said it himself, Metallica is a business and Bob Rock was able to do for Metallica what Fleming Rasmusen could not... bring them screaming into the mainstream. I ran into Bob in the pressbox at Thunderbird Stadium while shooting a Lollapalooza one year. We talked about The Payolas, how bad Rockhead sucked, (sometimes you just gotta play, he tried to convince me. But when I asked him, "What the hell did you do to Metallica?!!?", he ran!

  • You tell em' Kirk! I would whoop Lars' ass if he tried to tell me not to solo in my band

  • Yet there weren't any solos and Metallica's worst album was released.

  • At least it's only one album

  • i think bob rock brainwashed lars and james lol

    and he give kirk hormones lol

  • @ctmingusfan Fuck your Dream Theater...

  • @ctmingusfan TROLL!!!!!!!!

  • @ctmingusfan I like both metallica and dream theater, along with tons of different bands.

  • How are Dream Theatre any better than Metallica?

  • still didnt get his solos on the album thats why its SHIT!

  • @supersurfnazi-

    NO! - BOB ROCK AND DAVE MUSTAINE CAN SUCK A BIG GREASY NIGGER DICK

  • bob cock

  • I hate that timid Kirk was about to stand up for himself in the beginning and then backed down in the end

  • wtf? you asshole talking shit about bob rock, but remember who produced the BLACK ALBUM??!?

  • bob rock=faget st.anger=pure shit death to both od them

  • BOB ROCK CAN SUCK A BIG GREASY NIGGER DICK

  • amen kirk

  • bob rock, SHUT THE FUK UP, hearing him talk in this video and then metallica agreeing, its just aggrivating, ughhhhh

  • Why did he want to say something he thought was bullshit? Kirk should be confident in what he says :)

  • At least he played solos on Death Magnetic

  • Rob Cavallo called. He says St. Anger with no solos - SOUNDS DATED!!!!!

    I agree. I still find it funny how Hammett puts up a legitimate beef, which lasts all of 90 seconds, before caving in to the other threes demands.

    Bob Rock didn't even bother to produce this album and you can tell the way all the songs drag on.... probably too caght up with playing bass.

  • I support Kirk Hammet's ideas

  • Bob the nob.

  • St anger, was fucking awesome, but it would have been better with solos. Much better, the riffs fucking rock.

  • St. Anger was the wrong answer.

  • Bob Rock sucks cock.

  • I knew some old great bands... sad enough they made some great songs without a solo... they are dead now O,o

  • 0:10 - Yea its cool kirk!

    0:11 - jesus christ... 

  • 0:11

    gay smile.

  • Don't know why they're arguing so much. Their cavemen fans will buy anything if it says Metallica on it.

  • kirk hammet sounds like such a wimpy bitch

  • @555skooterboy mike tyson does too,and

  • @Rebelsoul73 quote from mike tyson - ''al eat your asshole alive you bitch! al fuck you til you love me faggot!!'' although sounding queer this is a man who at the age of 18 knocked out trevor berbick for the heavyweight championship of the world. built like a brick shit house.

    kirk hammet is a skinny guy with a very prepubesent voice which makes him sound like he has 2 hairs on his sack

  • Was foolish not to include solos, with all the songs they had portions that should have followed with a solo.

  • bob rock ruined metallica...

  • @zerbo803 No,Money Made Metallica Stale..

  • @zerbo803 my ass...wel I think Black Album was the only thing that came out right...and some death magnetic songs aren't bad but that's another thing. But still, black album rocks

  • @TheRealRGCV the black album was awesome!! they still had riffs from before bob rock and he sort of helped them organize them into more refined versions which worked great, but after that they started on the ob rock system from scratch and it sucked. they fired him for death magnetic and got rick rubin to produce it and i personally lliked it...

  • @zerbo803 another statement by a "not real fan".

  • @zerbo803 im not a real fan? the dude came in and took the heaviest awesomest band ever and wittled them away to nothing

  • @zerbo803 how so?

  • @zerbo803 Metallica ruined themselves..

  • @zerbo803 Again, Metallica wrote the songs. Bob didn't. Bob made them sound good. Bob didn't make them write load, or Nothing else matters.

  • @Beholder505 obviously he didnt write the songs and i dig where ryoure coming from i just feel like he knocked them off track. it worked for the the black album cause they were left over songs that he commercialized. after that it didnt work cause they set out to write commercial songs. its jsut an opinion of mine.... u agree or no? i mean hes telling kirk not to solo lol

  • @zerbo803 Some of the titles were leftovers. Struggle within, enter sandman, sad but true, but the songs were not. The songs were compiled from riff tapes. James and Lars got together, started piecing them, and they went into the studio.

  • ...and James wears a cowboy hat :D

  • i agree with kirk on this one,the solos & leads are one of the many things that make metallica's music unique.whats the point of cutting out a part of the music u love to make for the sake of a trend?lars should just focus on his drumming,leave the guitar parts to the guitarists.bob rock can fuck off,he hasn't produced a decent metallica record since the black album & then downgraded them to trendy watered down hard rock.why they listened to him i'll never know.

  • @juliuscaesarize first off,u might wanna go back to elementary to brush up on ur math.last i checked 4 out of 10 songs isn't half,kid.secondly,if u think everything metallica made after dave sucks then u obviously never heard songs like no remorse,trapped under ice,disposable heroes,or shortest straw.the first 4 albums,hell actually their first 5 albums to this day are looked at as classics.the handful of songs dave wrote did not make them.

  • Great Metallica albums made WITHOUT Bob Rock = Kill, Ride Master and Justice.

    Great Metallica albums made WITH Bob Rock = Black and.....none

    tear it.

  • Bob Rock = SHIT

  • when did kirk started playing solos? :S can't understand what he is arguing about :S

  • @theooo12345678 honestly, I think it has very little to do with playing the solos, so much as the ideas underlying their exclusion. I think the idea that Metallica change with the times for popularity is something that bugs Kurt to some degree, and he's just way too nice a guy to call bullshit on Bob Turribad Rock or Lars

  • All you Bob hatters seem to forget that he produced one of the greatest album in the history of Rock, Metallica's Black Album . That piece of work would have not been the same, not even close to the final result if it woudn't have been for him, just listen to sad but true or enter sandman demo .. you'll see

  • St. Anger is my favourite albums of all time, but Bob Rock is a faggot. St. Anger would have been so much more fucking amazing with solos.

  • and the album was the single biggest piece of "thrash metal " shit ever made...maybe you should listen to the fuckin guitar player? anyone ever heard the term, the drummer knows not? drummers usually suck at writing and lars "cements this trend"

  • @Dsntmtter4ME

    Yoshiki proves your comment wrong, Art of Life is one of the best ever

  • kirk is very queer there...

  • hmmmm so this guy bob is behind everything eh? i knew there was something going on lol , i hate u bob

  • Bob Rock turns every band he works with in to the Jonas Brothers.

  • @420Guitar420 joshuanaconda had it sopt on. You people say this shit but its fact that the black album is recognised as one of the greatest metal albums of all time. Rock helped a shit load. The fact that st anger isn't as good is down to the fucking musicians, you all saw the shit they were going through and it made them push an album out that they weren't fully 100% committed to doing. Its metallica's fault man. I'm just happy they're back at the top again even though DM was mixed horribly.

  • just shut up about all that ''i hate Bob Rock'' bullshit. if you think he ''killed'' Metallica then stop listening to them and listen to your Justin Bieber fag music... If Metallica wants Bob Rock to be thier producer then have some fucking respect for thier choice. I understan if you fags love justin bieber but i'm pretty sure that Metallica want fans that love Justin Bieber. Just shut up

  • if burton was still alive I 'm sure he would never agree to let Bob Rock be their producer.....FUCK YOU BOB,YOU DON'T ROCK,YOU HAVE KILLED METALLICA'S THRASH METAL MUSIC AND THOUGHTS :(

  • Bob Rock U FUCKING RUINED METALLICA I HOPE U GET RAPED AND DIE WHILE UR WALKING DOWN THE STREET FUCK U AND UR WHOLE ENTIRE FAMILY !!!!!

  • Amen. It's all about that trend. And it is a terrible trend that killed talent in music. Now what do we have? Nirvana! Then, Third-Eye Blind! Next, Good Charlotte! Emo! Beiber!

    -

    Music de-evolutionized.

  • @metallicarox80s dont bad mouth nirvana

  • bob rob kill metallica

  • Bob Cock

  • lol at 0:00 too 0:17, no wonder they didnt want solos in their music anymore.

  • Now we Know who held down kirk and cut his fingers off. Lars and Bob.

  • EXACTLY AND LOOK WHAT THEY FUCKIN DID. nuff said.

  • well nice discussion...but there ended up being no solos haha.

  • kirk shouldn't have yielded to the soft-talk

  • I totally agree with Kirk. Look what happened to bands who follow modern music trends and deviated away from their kind of music. All went down the drain.

  • @shf0606 Right on!

    Outvoted 3 to 1, as he might have been, Kirk was totally right too.

  • hÍhi_Áñÿ_gÛýs_wàñt_tÔ_chàt_wît­h_me

  • Stop blaming the producer... the bands do whatever the fuck they like its easy to blame the producer for the shitty music metallica decided to make.
