METALLICA's LARS ULRICH On 'Hardwired': I Am Feeling That This Record May Be Better Than I Was Aware Of

Asked if it's a relief that so many people are into the new METALLICA material, Lars responded: "Without sounding too corny here, obviously as an artist you would like people to have a positive reaction to whatever you share with them. Sometimes your instincts tell you that you're on the right track. There are other times where you're punting. I think all of us were hoping that [the first song to be released] 'Hardwired' was going to at least get a reaction. I don't think any of us expected the reaction to be that universally positive. I guess when I think about what's been going through my mind the last couple weeks, the word 'relief' is not what I come to.

"I'm starting to get a little bit of distance from this record. I think that as you get older, it doesn't get any easier, whatever it is the fuck you're doing — whether you're playing music or walking up a flight of stairs or trying to figure out what you're gonna have for dinner or whatever. It just doesn't get easier. It gets harder. I am feeling in the last few weeks, as I'm starting to get a little bit of distance from this record, that this record may be better than I was aware of, or that I had anticipated or hoped for. So I'm sort of — I don't know — every time I listen to some of it I'm like, 'This is pretty fucking good, actually.' So 'relief' is just not the word. I guess I'm pleasantly surprised. Because if there's one thing I've learned, and I have this with me all the time, and maybe I had it more with me this time, is that you can get high on the process. Right? You get so high on the process that you lose your ability to really tell what's going on. And sometimes in the process, you can get lost or delusional or misread things or whatever, and again, referring back to what I said before, it gets harder."

He continued: "Making a record at home, it's not particularly easier than making a record away. I mean, you go to L.A., you go to Denmark, you go somewhere else and that's all you got; nothing to do other than spend twelve hours a day in the studio. You make a record at home and life goes on, with kids and family responsibilities and all the rest of it. So you could argue [if you take a completely neutral look at it] we were probably less focused on this record for periods of time, including AT&T shows and Record Store Day shows and Reading Festival gigs and Lollapaloozas and all the rest of it. There was a lot of coming and going, and sometimes it was not super easy to exactly know what was going on. At the same time, I had in my mind this time, certainly more so than 'Death Magnetic', this constant thing about, 'Don't be fooled by thinking that just because it feels good, or you're making music, or you and James [Hetfield, guitar/vocals] are getting along, or you and Greg [Fidelman, producer] are, that the music is good.' It was a constant, almost daily evaluation. 'Is it good? Is it great? Can it be better? Can that be better? Can this be better? Can this be better? Can this? Should that go over there?' And all that kinda stuff. And that sort of continued until a few weeks ago when this record was basically done. I've heard it three times, maybe four times. Jess [Lars's wife, model Jessica Miller] and I, about two weeks ago, Jess and I got in the car and we drove north. Because you gotta get in a fucking car, as you know… You've gotta do the drive. And so until it's passed the fucking car test… And so we got in a car, two weeks ago tomorrow, and we drove up to Healdsburg, and we got three-quarters of the way into the record, up to Healdsburg. We went to a place, had a couple beverages, and then we drove back. She was driving… She was well within the legal limits of California… And then listened to the last two or three songs and it was like, fucking, this is pretty good."

Metallica’s Lars Ulrich Jokes That He Should Have Taken Lessons, Shares Favorite “St. Anger” Insult

Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich took part in a lighthearted interview with Entertainment Weekly in which he offered up some entertainingly self-depreciating responses.

A few highlights include:

When you’re in the middle of a kickass drum solo, where do your thoughts drift off to?:

“I should have taken lessons. I hope the sound man has turned this up so loud that the volume is masking my inability. Every late great drummer is currently turning over in his grave.” And then the last one is: “Since I write the set list, reminder: Don’t put ‘One’ on tomorrow’s set list.”

You’re the only American band to have five consecutive studio albums debut at No. 1 on Billboard 200. What would you do to ensure that this one goes No. 1, too? Would you be willing to, say, give back the Grammy you won for St. Anger?:

“[Pause] Did we win a Grammy for St. Anger?”

You actually did.:

“Winning a Grammy for St. Anger just sounds wrong.”

It does.:

“Since we have more Grammys than No. 1 albums, for the sense of balancing those out, yes, I would give the St. Anger Grammy back, to get those numbers closer together.”

You received a lot of flak for the sound of your snare in St. Anger. What was your favorite insult?:

“There were so many that I can’t remember, but the one that I generally say was right there with the best of them, which was that I forgot to take the snare out of the cardboard box that it came in.”

Corey entrevistou a banda pra um programa de rádio. Foram uns 20 minutos, legalzinho. Mas nada de muito relevante também.

Talvez o mais interessante foi o Rob assumindo que é um baixista contratado, não só pelo Metallica, como pelo Ozzy também. Segunda entrevista que vi dele nesse sentido.
