ROBERT TRUJILLO On His Place In METALLICA: 'My Role Is Always To Support What's Needed For The Team'

During an appearance on a recent episode of the "One Life One Chance With Toby Morse" podcast, METALLICA bassist Robert Trujillo, who joined the band in 2003 but only got a chance to write and record with them for the first time on the 2008 album "Death Magnetic", spoke about how involvement in the group's creative process. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "As writers, and you come into a new situation, you don't know if you're gonna be a writer. And I was a writer — a hundred percent — in my other situations. And even [when I was playing] with Ozzy [Osbourne], I was getting into some serious writing before I left. So that's always been important to me. But at the same time, it's, like. I'm joining METALLICA. And these guys write amazing songs, and I'm just not gonna suddenly insert myself into that.

"I like to keep people happy and comfortable, and my role is always to support what's needed for the team," he explained. "So if I'm writing a song with the guys, contributing that way… We're always contributing. Whether you see the name on the song or not, we're always… I'm in the room every time we're working on music, I'm in the room — I'm there with Lars [Ulrich, METALLICA drummer] and James [Hetfield, METALLICA guitarist/vocalist], a hundred percent. And there are times where it's, like, I've got some cool ideas, and James is always receptive. That's the one thing. It's, like, if you listen to the middle section of 'You Must Burn!' on the new record ['72 Seasons'], that's James and I actually jamming in the tuning room and then it becomes a part of this particular song. So a lot of what we do kind of happens from actually jamming. Someone will come and come up with a riff and bring it in. James is, like… I mean, he picks up a guitar to turn a tuning peg and he comes up with an insane riff. There's guys like that. So, I like to make sure that as long as the river is flowing the right way, that's the most important thing."

Robert went on to discuss the importance of getting along with his bandmates and the role interpersonal relationships play in a group situation.

"How do you cater to the personalities?" he said. "You're gonna live with these people. You've gotta respect that and respect people, and when you're in each other's space, you've gotta respect each other. And you've gotta help lift people. And all that kind of stuff plays into it.

"There's a million incredible players," Trujillo added. "Yeah, guys have a certain feel that are better for the band and whatnot, but at the same time, there's still that kind of bond and that trust and that connection you have to have with each other so that you're helping each other through life. It's like a life thing. You all work together, and the weak links, man, they get cut real quick. That's the one thing about our team — everybody gets along. You're there for the right reasons and you trust everybody. And that's what happens, and that's the way it's supposed to be."

In a 2016 interview with Germany's Rock Antenne, Trujillo was asked how much input he had on METALLICA's then-latest album, "Hardwired…To Self-Destruct". "Actually, a lot," he said. "A hell of a lot. What we do is even though when you read, a lot of people like to read credits and obviously on 'Hardwired' compared to 'Death Magnetic', there's writing credits that are really centered around Lars and James. The truth is that we jam. Even though the original riff, or the idea comes from Hetfield on this album, these are all great Hetfield riffs. You don't see the riffs from Kirk [Hammett] or myself as much as you would have on the previous record. I'm there every day jamming and I'm writing my bass parts. I'm playing my parts as bass parts. What determines a songwriter's [credit], you have to ask Lars. [Laughs] That's okay.

"I always say my role in METALLICA is to support the song and to support my team and whatever that means, I'm there for it," he explained. "I'm like Joe Walsh with THE EAGLES. Joe Walsh with THE EAGLES was a songwriter, he did a lot of great things, but when it came to THE EAGLES, he was there to play guitar, he was there to sing, he was there to do whatever he needed to do. If he had to write sections, he did.

"Songwriting credits… it's not a big deal," Robert added. "I think what the bigger deal is like how the songs develop and my role in supporting Lars and James with a song, whether the idea comes from Kirk or James or me, or whatever, it doesn't matter. What matters is, does the song sound great when it's finished?"

Trujillo, who was born on October 23, 1964 in Santa Monica, California, tasted success as the bassist in SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and Ozzy Osbourne's band. But in 2003, he successfully auditioned to replace Jason Newsted in METALLICA, a process chronicled in the warts-and-all documentary "Some Kind of Monster".

METALLICA's much-loved former bassist Cliff Burton died in 1986 when the band's tour bus crashed travelling through Sweden on the "Damage Inc. Tour" in support of "Master Of Puppets".

Back in 2021, Trujillo humorously revealed in an interview that before he signed on as the bass player for METALLICA, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES would gobble up METALLICA's leftover dinners whenever they could during a joint 1993 tour. And even though the METALLICA members respected Trujillo's playing with SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, Hetfield admitted that when Robert's name came up during bassist auditions, he thought, "there's no way he's going to join us. He's too amazing, he's too spectacular."

Mike Barlow

Откровенно говоря, сколько он ни числится в группе, все воспринимается "приглашенной звездой". Уже даже и одеваться стал как все, а равно выглядит как сессионщик.

Вашингтон Ирвинг

Mike Barlow, Так же его воспринимаю. Наверное, из-за его образа, вся эта форма баскетбольная, косички и т.д., ну не то. Вот в ST/IG он был как влитой.

Mike Barlow

Вашингтон Ирвинг, Он и Уайлд, когда играли у Оззи, выглядели на сцене просто супер, оба ещё качались тогда, два таких зверюги по бокам маленького смешного Оззи...
Двигались картинно и геройские позы 'на постер' принимали...
И вообще смотрелись единым целым.
Шорты и косы не мешали.

Petrucci

Mike Barlow, Это точно! Помню,как я на Горбушке на маленьком телеке впервые увидел Live At Budokan Оззи,сначала даже не понял, что там за такие здоровые бивни на сцене,реально гориллы ) да и Бордин за барабанами,хоть и худее,но со своей причёской смотрелся очень гармонично в этой компании! Двд этот тогда купил сразу,до сих пор один из любимых концертников.

Mike Barlow, Значит не у меня одного такое чувство. Джейсон, да, был как в своей тарелке. Даже в одном из воссоединений на выступлении в 2011 году он показал всем, кто тут босс.

Mike Barlow, Таджик всегда смотрелся в Металлике несуразно.
Походняк этот идиотский крабовый, косички как у первоклассницы.
Сколько лет уже в группе, а так и воспринимается как сессионщик.

SnakeZ

Абсолютно согласен с коллегами, - каким бы душкой не был Роб, он будет просто временщиком, который внезапно оказался вместо Джейсона - который играл и пел и смотрелся на сцене на порядок круче.

Rutger

Удачно его выбрали. Столько лет уже быть абсолютно незаметным, невидимым, давать пустые интервью ниочем. Не каждый способен.

olly71

Rutger, Просто группа где два очень ярких и харизматичных лидера на фоне которых все остальные как тени.. Джейсон конечно смотрелся более естественно но на фоне Хетвилда и Ульриха он был просто никто да что там Джейсон даже Кирк на фоне этих двоих воспринмается как какой то чувак проходивший мимо хотя в группе 40 лет и кое что значимое всё таки сочинил для группы.

Starbreaker

olly71, А раньше ты говорил, что он ничего в Металлике не сочинял в принципе, и это даже был один из первых твоих заметных срачей по поводу вранья.
Ты начал признавать свои ошибки с годами, хвалю!
Теперь перечитай биографию Мастейна.

Тоже не воспринимаю его как бассисита Металлики. Вот Джейсон был агрессивен на сцене как и вся музыка группы. А Роба словно пригласили помочь на пару туров заменить приболевшего басиста. Жаль, уверен как человек он хороший, и играет не плохо.
