They gel so good together. It's like it was meant to be. I still miss Cliff though, been since I was a teenager, just a little younger than the band members, but he was an absolute Beast on a Bass guitar. As much Hell as the band put Jason through, he was also a Beast on the Bass. Miss Jason too, but he's still with us. Long live the remaining Metallica Bassists. RIP Cliff Burton. Peace from Toronto ✌️✌️
Why is this so funny? 3:22 Lars drum solo, i keep rewinding it like 20 times. It sounds good but its just really funny to me for some reason. Also James squeel 4:02
Robert trujillo is a effin beast on the bass!!!! I've been playing bass for 5 months and can play some of his solos, and definatley his version of For whom the bell tolls. Dang i wish i was that good!!!!
I met Trujillo in France after a Suicidal gig. He had lost his wallet in the street and was looking for it. My brother had his bass with him and Robert played some stuff on my bro's bass. It was cool.
1983 the first song on "kill 'em all" .................the first time that music made me go nuts !!! i went like: what the hell is this!! these guys are playing 200mph..(if you were used to only:black sabbath,maiden,priest,etc,etc)it was so new and refreshing!!.....don't get me wrong here,i love every song on "kill'em all"but this "first song" in particular MADE ME GO NUTS !!!!
sometimes i wish rob joined metallica right after suicdal tendencies :/ sure jason newstead was sick on bass but nowhere close to as sick as rob and nowhere close to his skill level. rob played orion live with ease. something that hadnt been done since cliff burton was with them. huge props to rob and metallica for grabbing him before somebody else did.
Am not even the biggest Metallica fan in the world. They're ok now but Jason was more Metallica than Rob for sure. A much more suited fit was Jason in the band. Rob is nothing special..
Well you know what they say... You're as old as you feel you are, and Metallica sure are young! The energy they have at their concerts is unique, how PERFECTLY they perform their songs! Not to mention their constantly increasing musicianship! Kings of Metal, the end. :D
Robert fits the band so completely well.......:-) He seems to be a very friendly,nice man:*)))))) The way he plays guitar is very funny....when he is almost in a squatting position!!!Love that!
I love the moment when Rob is happy like a lil' kid when he choose 'Hit the light' - he repeated it a few times with smile on his face ;d and the "west side G" thing is funny also ;d
The guitar James is using is the original model of the ESP Iron Cross. What he's using here is a Gibson Les Paul, just modified the way he liked. Esp made a copy and that's the Iron Cross you see now on Esp's site.
Looking back on this now, the coolest thing is that this didn’t end up being some short-lived decision from a washed-up metal band trying to become relevant again. Rob breathed new life into the band, and 21 years later he’s played on 3 studio albums, thousands of shows, and been Metallica’s bass player for longer than Cliff and Jason combined. He’s a real part of the band and not a hired hand like James said when they hired him. Such a cool story.
He deserves it. Awesome. There are a lot of references to Cliff Burton so I just hope they sort themselves out now and get back to some semblance of the band they used to be when he was their bass player.
I remember seeing an old MTV bit where the band introduced themselves in a similar way - like a bunch of drunk headbangers hanging out. I think with the arrival of a new member to the band, they are parodying themselves from 15-20 years ago :D
i think hes rather underrated because he knew a lot about classical music (which is kinda the source of all good organised music) an implemented such stuff into metallicas music... also james or lars i forgot who said that he was by far the most gifted musician of the band
its called a "pinch harmonic" when you pick the string you tap the side of your thumb on the string right after you've picked. browse up some videos to see how its done
No, but when Rob got the job, it was on there. @ 8:54, you here Lars says "Can you insert a piece of that, like right here, now?' and @ 8:58 James "Hi were back, now you know what we we're talking about" They were joking about putting the clip of Rob joining in this interview.
Yes the ESP KH signature series where KH stands for Kirk Hammet. The one that is simular to the one he uses on stage is the ESP KH-2 (the vintage version is the exact same) it is heavily overprized cause he's awesome plus he get share of the income, and signature guitars is always overprized. The colorful guitar he uses on stage though is an ESP M-II. Wich actually is his favourite though
The day that never comes is ok when it comes to the 'Accoustic to Electric' songs. And if you don't know what that means, it's the 4th song from RTL, Master, and Justice. Fade to Black, Sanitarium, and One. They're all amazing but the day that never comes is probably the worst.
@linearrecords12 I agree, but I think they didn't because used Jason as a grieving device for Cliff. Plus, in documentaries the band said they never really communicated well with him. However, I wish he would have been allowed to do Ecko Brain & Metallica ]=

Robert is a true Bass legend. Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves, played with Ozzy. Tremendous Bass player.
He was wearing a vest back then ) and played in BLS with Zakk Wylde))
This clip made me remember why i love Metallica more then 99.99% of all the other bands.
×2
Their big group hug at the beginning is like the epitome of a band's relationship, it's like they've played for years, yet they really haven't.
I love how Trujillo just picks Lars up and carries him into the building saying, "OK, we gotta' go rehearse" lol Nice.
He spends a lot of time carrying the whole band lol
I just love how excited Rob is when he says "HIT THE LIGHTS, COME ON!"
lars: aggression, kirk: emo, james: bro, rob: chill
Exactly!!!!
They gel so good together. It's like it was meant to be. I still miss Cliff though, been since I was a teenager, just a little younger than the band members, but he was an absolute Beast on a Bass guitar. As much Hell as the band put Jason through, he was also a Beast on the Bass. Miss Jason too, but he's still with us.
Long live the remaining Metallica Bassists. RIP Cliff Burton.
Peace from Toronto ✌️✌️
7:17, the moment where everyone in the band clicks and the transition of song goes smoothly, also a nod of approval.
And that right there is why Rob got the job and is still playing with them over 20 years later. A true bass playing legend 🤘🙂🤘
Why is this so funny? 3:22 Lars drum solo, i keep rewinding it like 20 times. It sounds good but its just really funny to me for some reason. Also James squeel 4:02

That squeal at the beginning of "Hit The Lights" brought a tear to my eye.
You can see how pumped he is during his audition ... Awesome
Robert: "Yeah I'm from the Westside G"
Kirk: "Yeah! Venice" *awkward silence*
You put headphones in
You an actually hear how tight rob is on the bass, its amazing....
It's Metallica. They always cut the low end out (except when they want to get paid haha).
Robert- I am the truth
James- I am the table
OMG!
Incorrect.
James - I'm Creeping Death!!!
Jason: DIE DIE DIE DIE
"He´s a shaolin bass master" hahaha
I seriously thought that Rob was fucking around with all those names.
He wasn’t?
@@scpfoundationtm1249 Nope
LOL Robert makes this face sometimes when he's playing, it looks like he's biting into a lemon.
Wish they showed this love to Jason. Jason is legitimately a loveable guy
Camera-guy: "How do you guys feel?"
Kirk: "TRUE!!!!"
i lol'd
I'm so glad they picked Rob. he's awesome!
Roberto Agustine Miguel Santiago Samuel Trujillo Veracruz...
...kazoo
@@Benthenewbie414 YEAH!!!!
Robert is one killer bassist...one of my many influences.
1:31 / 1:32 The guy says "So how do you guys feel?"
Kirk shouts: "TRUE!" Lol
2:12 I like how Kirk makes a joke and I just falls on a dead note 😂😂😂 kinda like his playing
I like how Kirk's middle finger is pointing out near enough the whole time in the hit the lights part
I love Metallica. They'll always be my fav. band.. In my heart, they'll never die !
Kirk's handshake after Rob's carrying in Lars at the end is absolute funny xD
this performance is just epic
they all rock the the house down
OMG still laughing over the intro xD "kazoo" he says *rofl*
HAHAHAHAHAHA "how do you pronounce your last name?" "uhh tri jelly oh" LMAO
love them lol
James: oh there goes the tour
lol
Rob called out the song AND handled it. Respect
drums in danish is "trommer" :)
I Love Metallica! They are the nicest band and easily most talented they are my idols!
After seeing this video , you can definitely say : Metallica is BACK!
love this rehearsal of HIT the lights , really rocks
"how do u guys feel"
"TRUE!"
Veracruz, Mexico is proud of you Roberto Trujillo, keep up the good work with Metallica dude.
"I'm from the west side g"
"that's right. venice"
HAHAHAHA
LoL at Hetfield. "Trooooojeelo!"
I loved this whole video. Especially beginning.
Rob is the best bassist metallica have had and even the band admit that...
+Rob Goldsmith after cliff, i agree rob is the best
Jason literally made Metallica popular. He wrote blackened, and he was in Metallica for the album that made them really huge, the black album
1983 the first song on "kill 'em all" .................the first time that music made me go nuts !!! i went like: what the hell is this!! these guys are playing 200mph..(if you were used to only:black sabbath,maiden,priest,etc,etc)it was so new and refreshing!!.....don't get me wrong here,i love every song on "kill'em all"but this "first song" in particular MADE ME GO NUTS !!!!

wow that performance of hit the lights sounded real good.

:D
One of the first videos on YT, 18 years ago. Insane.
He's fucking amazing. Such a full on sound!
i think trujillo really deserves to be in metallica.. he is an awesome bass player
Robert fits the band so completely well.......:-)
He seems to be a very friendly,nice man:*))))))
The way he plays guitar is very funny....when he is almost in a squatting position!!!Love that!
ive seen this 4 times or so, it always makes me laugh :D
I love the moment when Rob is happy like a lil' kid when he choose 'Hit the light' - he repeated it a few times with smile on his face ;d and the "west side G" thing is funny also ;d
Kirk tossing the pick to James was fucking ace...
The guitar James is using is the original model of the ESP Iron Cross.
What he's using here is a Gibson Les Paul, just modified the way he liked. Esp made a copy and that's the Iron Cross you see now on Esp's site.
he was one of the guys who inspired me to be a bassist

he did and it was the most badass thing ive ever seen!!!!
stronger than ever but never
stronger then all
long live dime n em TERA boys
10 days left...THEN IM SEEING THEM LIVE!!! WOHOOOOOOOO METALLICA!!!!!!!!!!
I love Lars' hair growth from robs intro into hit the lights
wow you are the master of arguments
i bow down to my knees...
i love that the camera can barely pick up the sound on kirks solo, and barley show his fingers moving so fast!
Metallica doing a YT channel documenting their adventures would be gold.
He deserves it. Awesome. There are a lot of references to Cliff Burton so I just hope they sort themselves out now and get back to some semblance of the band they used to be when he was their bass player.
I remember seeing an old MTV bit where the band introduced themselves in a similar way - like a bunch of drunk headbangers hanging out. I think with the arrival of a new member to the band, they are parodying themselves from 15-20 years ago :D
I enjoy how Rob just manhandles lars like hes a little kid at the end.
"Ima find ya, ima find ya! I'm from the Westside, G!"
Rob is fuckin awesome lol
the guitar solo kicks ass!!!
Rob: I am the truth
James: WELL I AM THE TABLE
Schecter is such an underrated company!!
I have a stiletto classic and it's fantastic
Always nice to hear Lars speak Danish :)
He also does a danish count-in, in the St. Anger video.
@blackened247 Thats why they're all gone, then they got The Rev on drums. So now when we die we get to listen to the best band ever.
i think hes rather underrated because he knew a lot about classical music (which is kinda the source of all good organised music) an implemented such stuff into metallicas music... also james or lars i forgot who said that he was by far the most gifted musician of the band
metallica ... man their like a family there alike their good and special man
"ill find ya man west side g" words from the shaolin bass master XD
He deserves it for sure. Awesome.
its called a "pinch harmonic" when you pick the string you tap the side of your thumb on the string right after you've picked. browse up some videos to see how its done
This guy is amazing 👍👍👍 2024.
No, but when Rob got the job, it was on there. @ 8:54, you here Lars says "Can you insert a piece of that, like right here, now?' and @ 8:58 James "Hi were back, now you know what we we're talking about" They were joking about putting the clip of Rob joining in this interview.
Ohh that bass tone. 😎👍
(as Chris Farley) "Remember that one time? When Kirk slid the pick down, and James caught it? Um, that was awesome."
I love how Lars changed hairstyle during this video
@evanbeahan love the "what?" just after the "venice" and james face like "hmm that is wrong" and kirk's face is like "venice... wait. wut?"
THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST

Robert fits Metallica like a freaking glove!
That was hit the lights with the st anger snare
"Warning, don't try this at home"
I was like 'wtf?!'
Then he smashed the camera and i laughed.
"how do you feel?"
Kirk:"TRUE! "
:D
Man, he's in the pocket from the get go. Fuck yeah!!
Haha "Im gonna find you, Im gonna find you, Im from the west side G!"
@shuszzam actually - Robert originally comes from the band Suicidal Tendencies.
love it how rob says his full name
Roberto is a great player!
This video is two days older than me
"Kirk Hammett, guitar and, haaa... attempted vocals" These guys rock!
@linearrecords12 I agree, but I think they didn't because used Jason as a grieving device for Cliff. Plus, in documentaries the band said they never really communicated well with him. However, I wish he would have been allowed to do Ecko Brain & Metallica ]=
@newoaklandlocal For those of us who like to have background and just to hear them talk. Love it.
