Metallica

In a 1986 interview, Jason Newsted discussed the "sense of abuse" he received from the band and the crew due to being the "new kid on the block"

I looked up to these guys for a long time and it was really kind of unbelievable." Elaborating on the treatment he received, the bass player continues, "So the crew, production, people, everybody, are always just winding me up, but I've come to expect it and learned to kind of deal with it...so it's cool. After watching the dynamics of the relationship between Newsted and drummer Lars Ulrich unfold during the discussion, the interviewer says: "I'm nervously watching you guys; there's like a sense of abuse from Lars. When their new bass player was recruited, he was automatically pigeonholed as the "new kid on the block", and soon became a target for abuse that ran the gamut from light-hearted and juvenile through to humiliating and cruel. In response, Newsted declares, "There's a sense of abuse from everyone. Do they treat you like that because you're the new kid on the block?"

Sunday, August 25 2024 – Edmonton, AB – Commonwealth Stadium Sunday, August 4 2024 – Foxborough, MA – Gillette Stadium We’re only a couple weeks out from the release of Metallica’s 12th studio effort 72 Seasons and the metal titans are teasing another single that’s set to drop this Thursday.

In a new interview with the METALLICA fan magazine So What!, Robert Trujillo revealed that he contributes some vocals to a song called "You Must Burn!

In the six years since the arrival of "Hardwired… So it's cool that it's this breakdown that James and I were able to jam on and create, and then I get to sing on it too." And James and I just started kind of grooving on it. With this particular middle section that came to be, that was really centered around a jam and was very moody, and there's a danger to it; I like how the bass is walking. "For the first time in my life, I get to sing on a METALLICA record and support James [Hetfield, METALLICA frontman]. He added: "I was surprised when I got the call from Greg because I was coming up to play a little bass, but then he said, 'I'm going to have you sing on a couple things, too.' And I was, like, 'Really?' I got a little nervous.

"It's almost like a rebirth in a lot of ways"

Carlos is pulling it from a place of where he is, and that's the passion he's conveying through his instrument. It's coming from the heart and soul of who we are as individuals and where we were in this whole process, the growth of these songs, and everything. To me, every note that's played is important on this record, and I believe people are going to feel that. There's a lot of impact in the riffs in my mind. Riffs speak a certain language; they signify a certain level of power, whether it's in the groove or the heaviness, the edginess. "I think we all had a pretty good idea that he would be sharing a story, an energy," Trujillo said of the album's direction.

[didn't make the final mix](https://loudwire.com/metallica-robert-trujillo-james-hetfield-vocal-booth-first-time/) for the project. So it's cool that it's this breakdown that James and I were able to jam on and create, and then I get to sing on it too." "I was surprised when I got the call from [Metallica producer] Greg [Fidelman] because I was coming up to play a little bass, but then he said, 'I'm going to have you sing on a couple [of] things, too," Trujillo recalls. More than anything, it was intended to make a point, which was, Fuck it, let's be creative, let's concentrate on new ideas, new music, a new record." But basically, that day never came because I threw together an original piece that had nothing to do with [that] acoustic version." "And just to be clear, James sparked the whole thing when he sent over 'Blackened 2020' for us all to throw down." [James](https://loudwire.com/tags/james-hetfield/) [Hetfield]," Trujillo explains. [Metallica](https://loudwire.com/tags/metallica/), I'd never sung in my whole life, so the fact that I can now support a backup vocal is pretty cool."

Robert Trujillo has explained how Black Sabbath and [Carlos] Santana have inspired the new Metallica album, 72 Seasons, and why he can't wait to tour.

It’s coming from the heart and soul of who we are as individuals and where we were in this whole process, the growth of these songs, and everything.” The album will be the band’s first new release since 2016, which explains the “personal” tact given what has happened in the interim. It has a lot of that energy in all of us.
