Kirk Hammett was the guest on Full Metal Jackie's radio show over the weekend. The Metallica guitarist discussed the band's new album, 'Hardwired ... To Self-Destruct' + more.
Happy Birthday today (Nov. 18) to Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett. He’s 54. Also celebrating today is bassist Rudy Sarzo (Quiet Riot, Whitesnake) who turns 66, former Scorpions drummer Herman Rarebell (67), and bassist Johnny Christ of Avenged Sevenfold (32).
Kirk Hammett has revealed he felt somewhat left out of the songwriting process for 'Hardwired... to Self-Destruct,' calling it a 'very bitter pill to swallow.'
During a Q&A session, Metallica were asked about playing '...And Justice For All Live' to which Kirk Hammett joked they can't because 'there's no bass' on it.
