He was just on "That Metal Show" and gave an unreal interview. He didn't shy away from any questions about Metallica and brought lots of insights to his place in the band historically. For instance, he humbly stated that Cliff Burton is, was and will always be Metallica's bassist.
I like the new song but, I don't really get guys that break off (or are fired); start a new band and then use their name as the band's name. I realize there's marketability there but, he is an incredible technically proficient musician. This new music is good enough to sell without his name as the band's name.
