Metallica recently issued the following update:
“As a few of you may know, we’ve been working behind the scenes the last couple of years on a new film that will be released later this year starring you guys! Metallica Saved My Life explores our world through the lives of fans who have supported each other through highs, lows, trials, and triumphs for over four decades. And yeah, we’re in it a little bit, too.”
On June 11, the band took part in a Q&A session with The New Yorker’s Amanda Petrusich after the screening of “Metallica Saved My Life”, which premiered at New York City’s Tribeca Festival. Fan-filmed video of the Q&A can be viewed below
All clips from the interview can be viewed on Lauren Wong‘s YouTube channel.
During the Q&A, Metallica frontman James Hetfield commented on his relationship with the fans:
“When I get up on stage, I feel so much more comfortable up there than I do in regular life a lot of the time. I feel like I’m so easily able to be me with the fans, and the more I’m me, the more they like it. It’s just so opposite of how I was brought up. Being yourself wasn’t always welcomed for some reason. But speaking my truth up there and other people understanding that truth, the four of us have gone through so much together, and we care about this a lot because a lot is still happening for us even into our fourth decade as a band. It’s gotten better every decade.”
“It’s okay to be human and to fuck up and learn from it. And that’s why we’re here. We’re here to learn. And we learn from each other. And if you don’t try, you don’t learn. So, I’ve grown probably the most in the darkest of times. So accepting the great stuff and the dark stuff as just life… Life isn’t happening to me; it’s happening with me. I’ve learned so much about myself and other people on how to live life better and to not take things completely seriously and to be on stage and be yourself. We get to do that. I got the best job in the world. The end.”
