This wasn't a great solo, but then again metal isn't my kind of thing so I probably just wasn't feeling it. But what annoys me more is the fact that Flea fanboys are posting on here comparing Robert Trujillo to Flea.
1. They are bassists of a different style, you can't compare.
2. Flea isn't the best bassist in the world. In fact, including the true great players, he's really quite far down.
You know what? He is as much Metallica to me as Jason was. The boy has skill... Sadly Metallica, isn't as Metallica as they used to be, but not his fault.
i think he expresses himself in his own way, and fair play to him, but it would sound so much better without so much distortion. like maybe a little but it barely sounds like a bass... dunno, suppose some people are into that
@slipknot777ification newsted? Now he was a bad bass player! he just did exactly what james did! seriously, you can play the whole black album on the E string! Boring and uninspired!
Trujillo can't play bass worth a shit. My mother could do better. Most, if not all of his "bass playing," is bullshit hype and nonsense. He substitutes skilled bass playing with "bass ass" looking stances like wearing his bass low on his shoulder, goofy basketball outfits, spreading his legs out and low, sweat pouring out of a face that looks like he just got fucked up the ass by a hung horse. The moron is all hype and poor bass playing geared toward idiots who think losers like this "kick ass."
@MrBassJon First of all I do play bass dumbass. Second, no they are better even without playing slap bass. Trujillo is probably the most overrated bassist
He's not overrated, they didn't give him enough time he's been in Black label society, Suicidal Tendencies, and played with Ozzy just to name a few. And if he's the BEST choice for the biggest metal band of the past 3 decades, then ya he could school you trolls. Learn some respect bitches
He looks like a younger version of my Native friend who I find downtown who sells me cheap smokes and weed! I don't think he plays bass though... BTW Wylde was PISSED when he left BLS. Hmmm, a million dollars sign up bonus with Metallica... Who's your daddy? I wish my dad was Lemmy!!! Metallica looks like a bunch of lame-assed posers compared to THAT guy!
@DuxJerome You are saying he plays shitty solos because James and Lars wont allow a bigger star?! That is nonsense.. Give those 20 seconds to a good bass player and will make your jaw hit the floor.. he has a bass rig as expensive as you can dream of, to play THAT?! that is so funny.
@darkmatterdoesit he's the bassist for 311. not a very metal band but whateva, i like his style. couldn't really find a good vid of his playing but ive seen him do a solo live and it was life changing. this is the best footage i could find. /watch?v=c3oQOF1UpOM&NR=1
@darkmatterdoesit did you see the bass auditions. its on youtube. Robert made some of the best Bass players in music today look like my 10 year old guitar students. And no it wassnt even close.
when you can play a bass guitar and entertain thousands of people then you can call someone that. plus your argument makes no sense. He is nothing compared to flea or les??! Eh? why is that then?? oh because he isn't slapping? Rob can slap really well actually : )
kind of cool infact but how does this compare to my friend of misery's complete bass solo at all... robhasno soul for playing bass, even if he is skilled ky is lacking something...
Man im so pissed i wana see them in concert before i die, and of course before they die since they are getting old, can we like freeze them for later use? lol

@OlliieeeeAdy lets get things straight. Flea is a very popular bassplayer.
But Trujillo pisses on him with every aspect of his playing.
Pity he plays these lame solo's for Metallica.
Listen to his solos for Infectious Grooves or Suicidal Tendencies. Thats creative and still fresh..
Im sure Trujillo is only in Metallica for the fame and fortune.And thats ok.
But for creativity he should leave because James and Lars wont allow a bigger star.
