James Hetfield
Any time somebody is into your band that's a good thing. And if they're in a really cool, really popular band, that's a better thing.
James Hetfield
I'm not generally a big solo guy, because I'm not into showing off that way.
James Hetfield
When you're an actor and you walk into a theatre where your movie is playing, you're kinda proud. Look at my skill!
James Hetfield
One time we saw some hookers but when we got closer we realized it was Motley Crue.
James Hetfield
I love playing the melodic stuff. I love adding textures and colors.
James Hetfield
I've discovered that sheer quantity doesn't necessarily make for a heavier sound if anything, overdubs make guitars sound mushier.
James Hetfield
Metallica is the world to me - it always has been, and that's not going to change. I'm married to Metallica.
