Wouldn't usually upload just a random audio only interview, but it is early 80's pre-Ride the Lightning, from February(?) 1984 in Holland,

He talks about Kill 'em All and finding a record label, the usual LA to SF stories, touring with Venom, their live tapes, No Life 'til Leather demo and other tapes being circulated. Pretty cool to see the vision they had even so early on and hearing all of these stories being said in early '84.

  • awesome, sold 65,000. thats pretty good for an independant... now its millions and millions and millions, so awesome to see

  • he sounds like lars today ;O :P

  • Metallica gave up on the world after they were forced to finish the master of puppets tour, they had no time or even an idea to give their sorrow to cliff's death. It was just a few weeks, forced to audition a new bassist and everything. Can you blame them not giving a shit anymore? No.

  • This is an awesome interview!!

  • @risethelightning hahah ph yeah. Me too.

  • Awwwwwww! His widdwe voice wash sho high pitched!

  • Ride the Lightning kicks fucking ass!! Their best album EVER in my opinion!!

  • Y'know he still says You'Know to this day :)

  • @risethelightning lol seriously. It almost sounds like something that you'd hear at the beginning of metallica documentary or something

    like, start off the documentary or movie tribute to Metallica or whatever, you know. Start it off with that little clip.
