NME Video: Metallica Interview

[fatfacerick]

Kirk you fool. Playing Live Earth type concerts do FUCK ALL for the environment. Raising awareness is pointless. We're all aware of the problems. You have to do more than just stand up and say "Hey there's a problem here". You need to be proactive. Fuckin' environmentalist assholes.

[Chapin10fc]

yea man NEVER STOP!..METALLICA FOREVERRRR!! <3!

[THEFLYINGREDNECK]

i saw a high school pic of him and he looked like a nerdy asian chick

[MultiMrknowledge]

yeah same i want to see them too but rarely come to uk let alone scotland

[LexxiiVanityy]

I'm glad to hear Kirk say that he doesn't want to retire, still gives me a chance to see them in concert. (I'm only 14)

[d0gb0x69]

ride the fkn lightning Kirk. Well done. But fuck the black album....

[m1necraft3rs]

im named after him im so honored

my name kirklin Jaymez dukes i know james is spelt weird but thats how its actually spelt :p

[JustStayDown90]

@m1necraft3rs God that's horrible.

[m1necraft3rs]

@JustStayDown90 what? :p

[JustStayDown90]

@m1necraft3rs I'm just kidding. :P

I think it's wonderful.

[Long23]

Committed environmentalist...unless it has an impact on ticket sales.

[EldubeG25]

Justin Bieber's penis is the size of the dislike bar. In Soviet Russia, the reverse happens to you. Chuck Norris is somehow related to this video. Rebecca Black sucks. Thumbs up if *insert obvious shit here*. XXX views and thousands of likes!? Press 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and thumbs up. I'm thankful that porno doesn’t have ads. I pee in the side of the bowl to make lessnoise! I find this video difficult to masturbate to. Did he died?!

You won't need to comment now, life is easier

[BrianDiCaprio]

[MasterOfDeadStrings]

I went to this show.

[fuckzezima]

he's going bald

[movieman75649]

Happy Birthday Kirk !

[CanineMercury123]

his hair is freakin' awesome!

[iwh13]

haha kirk is awesome he stutters alot when he gets interviewed

[thehubbucks]

One thing that gets me is the people who say Metallica are sh1t. How can they be sh1t? They have been one of the BIGGEST metal bands since 1991! These guys are absolute magical musicians who produce the goods every time; did they have a dip in the 90's after the black album? Yes, a bit, but for God's sake, which band hasn't? They are lords of music that will have another 10 years!

[BuIletFuck]

@thehubbucks 91? Kill 'em All was released in 83. You're only a few years late. Plus Master of Puppets is one of their biggest songs and It was realeased before 91. So try a bit longer

[MegaGuitarforlife]

@thehubbucks Metallica started in the summer of 1981 and in March 1982, they released first demo 'No Life 'Till Leather'. In summer of 1983 they released first album Kill 'Em All and a few month's later they releaseed 'ride the lightning' since that moment they growed very fast ...

[thrashmetal4life515]

@MegaGuitarforlife metallica died during the recording of the black album

[metyzermanfan19]

@thrashmetal4life515 What?! Oh my god really?! What an original comment from some douchebag who cant stand the thought of someone striving for success. And dont even touch the subject of post AJFA music sucking, because it didnt suck, sure it wasnt 10 minute metal ass kickings but it was still good music. So fuck you.

[supamarkzyxe]

kirk is on weed haha

[StrawberryFields35]

"What motivates you, as a band, to keep making great music?" Not a great question to ask Metallica, as Load, ReLoad, and St. Anger are all horrible albums.

[bb221b]

@StrawberryFields35 There's nothing wrong with Load. It's just different, man.

[StrawberryFields35]

@bb221b:

I don't care if it's different.

[bb221b]

@StrawberryFields35 You're cute.

[StrawberryFields35]

@bb221b:

I got nothing to say.

[supperunknown]

They should let Kirk do the interviews more,

he may not be a 'really good' speaker but i enjoy listening to him

At least more then to Lars

[MrTallisbm]

Lol he answered question2 wrong surfing is not an answer about metallica being enviromentaly friendly but what u gonna do about a guitar player they don't know what to say at times and when they do say the right thing they say um or uh alot lol

[jimn1968]

Wow, none of what he said here on the last question was pertinent to anything having to do with the environment. Global warming? I don't think anyone who claims to be concerned with 'global warming' even knows what it is. Or rather, what it's said to be.

[jimn1968]

He surfs. Now that's what I call an environmentalist.

[nirvanaruleforever]

metallice sold out.. it breaks my heart

[deathscythekim729]

He's half-Filipino...

[jimihendrixnslash]

dave mustaine is better than kirk

[Fatalvengence]

@jimihendrixnslash arnt u cool

[sharonmianscum]

you can tell when hes lying...he stutters

[sexymanjdj]

@sharonmianscum He might be nervous or something...

[wesclev83]

I think we know what you mean by "love mother nature." lol

[InFuriatedShadows]

KIRK IS ASIAN LIkE ME LOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOL

[sigmazombie]

[emysocute78]

[coreymmmwmmwmm]

Kirk Hammett = Legend

[jiiomg]

@coreymmmwmmwmm Dave Mustaine = Better than kirk

[SpicyDragoon]

@jiiomg Well said!

[Ermac94]

@jiiomg ahhaahhahahahahahahaha nice joke

[jiiomg]

@Ermac94 joke? WTF are you talking about

[dnsbram]

@coreymmmwmmwmm i got a kh 202 yesterday ;p

[sasukekirin]

I got a kh 602 last week ...YEEEEEAAHAHHA XDXD

[SpicyDragoon]

@coreymmmwmmwmm Dave Mustaine will always be better.

[girosbs]

@coreymmmwmmwmm no hero a legend is a hero whos dead and we dont want him to die so thats means hes a hero

[girosbs]

@coreymmmwmmwmm no hes a hero a legend is a hero whos dead and we dont want him to die so thats means hes a hero

[therealfretmaster]

He'd look better bald. P.S. did anyone notice that he studders alot?

[alexdadark]

@therealfretmaster no way, DIPSHIT 4 even bringing it up

[Joetheawesomo808]

oh i got a good idea how about you call the album death magnetic

[bobivonkuja]

haha his hair is kinda rare at the top

[GetoutofMyYard1]

Kirk Hammet.

He woke up, and played with his son

O__o

[clayandaaron]

@GetoutofMyYard1 fun.. fun... xD

[TrueLegend47]

He jams with his kid?! thats one hell of a lucky kid...fuck if my dad was the lead guitarist of metallica i would want him to teach me and play with me every second of my life!

[NotInTheCojones]

@TrueLegend47 His kids are only like 2 and 4, they're not old enough to jam yet lmfao.

But yeah I agree with you, that would be so damn awesome.

[FlareStorm10]

1:54 - 2:53

He sounds like he´s going to cry =)

I love you Kirk!(not gay)(more like man love yo ass)(xD)

[Bunters196]

Well listen to the lyrics of Blackened. Shows they know the world is getting destroyed

[GuitaristABCDE]

Hes cool.

[giantegoist57]

Anyone wanna have sex?

Too bad.

[Gookno]

His food isn't the only thing he grows ; ).

[Sthlmprog]

I LOVE YOU

[TheM3TaLMeTaLLiCa]

i didnt know kirk had a son!!! he never has said anything about him

[wiiiissam]

@TheM3TaLMeTaLLiCa he always says things about him lol

[blackfire9087]

awsome guitarist

[metalkyled]

only as closed minded as the members of Metallica, lol

[SpiritMolecule1]

global warming= tax FRAUD

[mulholland1985]

heh..kirk says about led zeppelin..being the greatest band on earth with four equally talented musically and when a main part of the band passes away its natural they had to stop.bonham was irreplacable..i understand that cliff too died(RIP) and he too was someone really hard to replace.but zep faced more serious n diffrerent circumstances..no offense to kirk

[Kieran4479]

I love u Kirk!

[snusnusnus]

"But I want it done, and I want to go out there and I want to rock" Kirk<3

[jonzmaster]

lol? kirk stutters on any interview.. doesnt mean he is lieing...

[solodude45]

@jonzmaster haha its like he sucks at english but is a fucking preacher on guitar

[pacovl46]

he stutters when he's excited, he said that himself in some kind of monster in the band commentary feature

[krytoxic122]

haha, i think Lars stutters too!

[metalkyled]

@krytoxic122 yeah he stutters cause he is a fuckin' dummy.

[Deadvision666]

your mums a what?

[metalkyled]

@Deadvision666 lol. Aww, don't get defensive now that I insulted "overuse of the wah pedal" Kirk Hammitt and "I only do snare solos" Lars Ulrich

[Deadvision666]

wow, you are a closed minded git arnt you

[cooltrainertom]

@metalkyled U fail at life.. Metallica rules \m/

[CrazyKing89]

@metalkyled I love metallica but can't deny these things still play better than most in their time

[TheNightParade]

kirk is my favorite metallica guy and my favorite guitarist!

[vicgarcia30]

guitarist he is an averege but there's way better players than him

[TheNightParade]

@vicgarcia30 i like his style though. that's all that really matters to me.

[HellenicKurdishAlly]

kirk rules.

but how does that work with "metal up your as!" ?

[logalog4236]

"Im very interactive with the enviroment, I I love the Earth man, I love Mother Nature."

Nice one Kirk! ;D

[angmar11]

[CygieCherry]

[Aeronius89]

[luvudarren1]

@NecroNoct of course, he's old. nd filipino. lol

[realgdrummer]

Happy 47th B-Day Kirk!!!!!!

[Lawfulness]

Haha!! James' voice. Mustaine had his voice fucked up in one show and that didnt stop him. He asked for the crowd to help but he actually kept on singing!!

[wolfman8796]

so what does that have to do with them not playing certain songs in live gigs

[Lawfulness]

Nothing at all, haha. Just pointing it out. I dont really like to make comments on Megadeth v.s. Metallica but this time i had to. I still like both bands anyway:)

[RockinMetaller]

thats very nice for you and dave

[Lawfulness]

Thanks douchebag :)

[RockinMetaller]

[EfluvioAragon]

METALLICA! gods of the stage, genious

[corm1000]

Their is no better then Iommi and this guy.

I hated how he left the solos out on St. Anger.

[NoSurvivorskillemall]

Not Really his Fault You Know

Bobs and lars fault for leaving them out.

[WizzardOfGlue]

they actually had some solos on some songs. but left it out becuase most of the songs didnt have solos, i called it the NU-Metallica, even tho everyones hated the fact that it relaly is nu-metal stuff

[7Whitewolf3]

Phoney!

[Rave4Techno]

22 songs?! lol

[flannelslipperz]

grows his own food n grows his own dope

[peak199]

He's a fucking rock star,not a public speaker.And I am glad he's a stoner-or their music would suck!

[MrIcicle]

I love the eath man I love the earth (and I grow stuff man I let stuff grow from the earth on my ranch where I grow my own "food".. )

[teom78]

OMG

[Thethingthatshdnotbe]

[Metallicafreak76]

1:55

I love the earth man i love the earth

[cbertram11]

he sounds soo stoned

!

[Akinohotarubi]

He looked like he was about to cry when mentioning the "3 surviving members"... It's funny but I never really pictured him as the sensitive guy he seems to be. That makes me like him even more.

[Rave4Techno]

zeppelin=kirk, james, and lars with cliff dead. rip cliffy boy

[espdestroyer]

I think People shouldn't make fun of others. I am A true Believer in God and Karma!!! If your going to throw stones at someone you should look into your OWN Family before you do. Metallica has ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR THEIR FANS!!! HAVE YOU BEEN THERE FOR METALLICA??? I HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL BE!! I was medically retired from the Navy because of 2 Spinal surgeries and a reconstructed righ wrist , and i'm glad i can still play guitar. Thanks Jason D. Decker Columbus Ohio. 43228

[MetallicA4658]

EXACTLY! if people arnt gonna be true fans then what are they? all bands go through bad times and stuff that we dont know about... but you just have to give them time to get back on their feet. Look at all the people who stuck w/ them. they have enough proof to say why they deserve to be in the R&R HOF. but people who didn't stay w/ them moved to a band that is going threw that know and cant face the fact metallica is better than ever now
