More quotes by James Hetfield
Trios aren't really geared for slide unless you're gonna play chords, or play that simple George Thorogood style. It gets pretty thin when you play single note lines.
James Hetfield
Every breath I take becomes deeper, and I become more confident of myself without my crutches. The lies I've filled my body and soul with aren't needed anymore. They're not welcome. I choose to live, not just exist.
James Hetfield

James Hetfield
There is something powerful in Metallica, a will, a drive.
James Hetfield
I'm not generally a big solo guy, because I'm not into showing off that way.
James Hetfield
I'd like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats.
James Hetfield
I wanted to make noise, not study theory.
James Hetfield
A lot of times, I'll have a goal, I'll start writing, and I'll end up in some far off place, which is good. It's nice to have a focus, but letting the lyrics write themselves where they need to go is important.
James Hetfield
Rap is just to me very annoying.
James Hetfield
Every band that I've known that has done side projects or things like that - I don't respect them anymore.
James Hetfield
The fans like the idea we do what we want. It's not an act. Screw the record company and the beaten path. Without MTV or radio, we still have a huge underground following.
